Create the perfect guest bedroom retreat for your overnight guests.
Include baskets of toiletries, personal items and luxury linens.
Entertaining is not just about hosting parties and serving dinner at your home.
Another part of sharing your hospitality is the manner in which you welcome guests into your home.
Imagine your favorite hotel and recall what accoutrements were placed in your guestroom.
Otherwise, consider creating a double-duty room (i.e.
guest room/home office or guest room/craft room or guest room/library).
Remember that a comfortable bed is your first priority.
Dont skimp on linens or pillows.
Also, include a small side table with a lamp and an alarm clock.
With the advent of cell phones, a land line is no longer needed in a guest room.
Luxury Items
Put together a small basket of bath items and toiletries.
Otherwise, place the basket in the bedroom.
I purchased a set of simple yet fluffy bath linens that I only use for our guests.
That way, I know that the linens will always look their best for our guests.
This feature is very convenient for longer-term guests, who may need to wash their clothes during their visit.
