5 Easy Ways To Decorate A Guest Room

Having overnight company this Thanksgiving holiday season? Here are some tips that will show you how to turn your spare bedroom into a cozy guest retreat.

1) Create an environment that promotes a great night’s sleep. Make the bed super comfy by adding a thick duvet and lots of fluffy pillows. High thread-count, 100-percent-cotton sheets are also a must.

2) A water carafe and glass set is a perfect bedside accessory, and is easily available.

3) Take a cue from the best hotels, hang terry cloth robes in the guest room closet!

4) Create a spot to stow wet towels, such as an attractive laundry basket or hooks on the back of the door.

5) Don’t forget about lighting. Provide a night light, a small reading lamp by the bed, as well as a bright overhead light. Place unscented candles around the room.

How to make your bed the focal point
