Furnishing Your Guest Bedroom

Your guest room deserves more care and attention as compared to other rooms in your house. A well-furnished, clean and organized guest room will leave a lasting impression on your guest’s mind even after they have left.

Furnishing a guest room does not have to be an expensive affair. Instead it has to be tasteful yet simple. Here are some great tips for furnishing your guest room tastefully:

  • Wall Color: Choose a wall color that is soothing and nice to look at. Keep the color scheme simple. Instead of choosing a bright color on the walls like red and orange, go for neutral colors. For some pop of color, you can use bright throw pillows, colorful area rugs, pieces of art, etc.
  • The Bedding: This is usually the first thing to catch the attention of a guest. The best tip for never going wrong with the bedding is to go for neutral and soft colors as opposed to bold and flashy ones. Also, the color of the beddings should complement the paint on room’s walls, color of the throw pillows or any artwork that stands out in the room.
  • Items Of Decor: Adding a few items of decor to your guest room is what makes it different from hotels and inns. The accessories and items of decor that you choose should make your guest feel special and express a little bit of your personal style. However, restrain from displaying family photos as that gets too personal.
  • Accent Chair: To add to your guest’s comfort, invest in a nice accent chair as a seating option in the room. Accent chairs are functional and also act as a focal point.
  • Amenities: Keep a few basic amenities handy for your guest i.e. things he may need. Examples of such amenities are a reading lamp, charging station, extra blankets, bug repellant cream, toilet accessories, pens, writing pad, etc. This will make your guest feel special and cared for.
  • A Chest Of Drawers: Invest in a good quality chest of drawers instead of a cupboard for your guest. A chest of drawers has enough storage for someone who’s visiting for a few days. It’s easier to keep things organized in the drawers and also the whole unit does not take up much space.
  • A Mirror: If you don’t want to spend on a full-fledged dresser for the sake of a mirror or simply want to utilize your guest room’s space better; buy a good mirror. This will solve the purpose at a fraction of the cost and also save a lot of space.
