5 special ways to arrange your guest room
Open up your door to guests and make them feel special and comfortable. Here are few ways to decorate the guest room and impress your guest.
1. Hooks and hangers
A visiting guest would find it infinitely comforting and convenient if there are hooks and hangers to hang his/her keys and clothes. Place a wall rack to accommodate his/her purses and watches and other accessories. Make sure there are plenty of hangers inside the closet so that there is enough place to hang the shirts/coats. Mounting hooks can be placed on the back of doors. These little details help in a long way to make the guest feel at home.
2. Books for the guest
Cicero remarked, “A room without books is like a body without soul”. Keep an assortment of books in the guest room so that the guests can rummage through your book collection. Mix up books from all the genres – detective novels, fantasy, literary fiction, short stories, etc. Arrange the books on a shelf in an organized way and keep a reading light or a lamp shed. Create a cozy reading spot with cushions and pillows where the guest can curl up and lose himself/herself in reading.
3. Luggage stand
The guests are at your home for a short stay. Keep in mind the hotel experience when you picture the guest in your guest room. Keep a luggage stand for him/her to keep their belongings so that they do not have to struggle through the belongings in the suitcase. You can keep a folded stand and you can stash it away in cupboards when there is no guest staying at your home.
4. Place a night stand
Think of decorating your bedroom when you organize the guest room. Everybody needs bedtime comforts like a table lamp and a place to place watches, earrings, etc. Place a desk or table and keep the table lamp which can be easily switch on and off. If your guest is particular about having little light in the room while sleeping, keep a dim light on at night.
5. Make the guest feel special
You can make the guest feel special by taking care of details that will leave them with pleasant experience. Place some fresh flowers on a jar or a vase to welcome a good mood for the guests. Make him/her feel special by keeping a pair of slippers and hanging a robe from a hook outside the bathrobe. If possible, keep a bag of toiletries comprised of tooth paste, shaving cream, shampoo, hand wash, etc. It will certainly make him/her feel pampered and they will be grateful to you for the wonderful experience.
