How to Decorate a Guest Room: Top 6 Tips

How to Decorate a Guest Room: Top 6 Tips

Everyone loves entertaining people at their homes every now and then. But, when people come to visit, whether it's for a few days or a week, you're going to want them to have a comfortable place to rest their heads.

A place that is relaxing and like a home away from home. This may lead you to ask the question of how to decorate a guest room? Lucky for you, you've come to the right place to find all of the guest room decorating tips that you've been looking for.

1. Choose the Right Bed

Nothing can ruin a room like selecting a mattress for the bed in your guest room that doesn't work. You're going to want the guest room to have a mattress that is comfortable and will provide your guest with the best sleep that they can get during their time away from home.

The thing about purchasing a mattress is you'll want one that's quality but without breaking the bank. Take the time to search for the perfect mattress for your guest room. A mattress that provides support and the right amount of give for anyone sleeping on the mattress.

The bed you choose should also be thick enough that if you're using a box spring, the guest won't feel the springs that are in the box.

2. Keep It Simple

There are times when you may feel like the guest room is the blank canvas you've been waiting for and feel the need to go over the top with decorations and color. But, remember, just like you want a bedroom that is calming to help you relax and unwind at the end of the day, your guests will want the same thing.

It can be challenging to calm your body and mind in a room that is too busy and filled to the brim with unnecessary décor. Choose a design theme that packs a punch while being simple at the same time.

Your guest will appreciate the pieces you've chosen to place around the room without the room becoming a private collection of the décor you would find in a home goods store.

3. Add Drawer Space

If the room doesn't have as much storage as you'd find in other rooms, you may want to think about adding some storage. This is because if you've got in-laws coming to stay for a couple of weeks to months, they will want to unpack their bags and put things away.

Having some drawers or shelves to place their items will give them a chance to get everything out and tuck their suitcases away to make more space in the room. Nobody likes living out of a suitcase; it makes your close wrinkled, which can be frustrating when you're traveling and don't have easy access to an iron.

4. Use the Right Linens

Depending on the area you live in and your home's temperature, you're going to want to ensure that you select the right bedding for your guest room. If you live in Texas, it might not be ideal for putting cotton sheets or a heavy quilt on the bed unless you want your guests to melt into a puddle of sweat.

And if you live in a place that perpetually cold like Alaska, you're not going to want to only provide your guests with thin sheets that leave them shivering at night. If you live in an area where the climate changes, you can always keep linens fit for both cold and warm weather tucked in the closet and pull them out when you need to make a change.

5. Add Entertainment

The purpose of people visiting your home is, of course, to spend time with you and your family. But, at the end of a long day of spending time together, it's a given that people are going to want to spend some time in their room, winding down before they go to bed.

When it comes to setting up a guest room, you can add a tv for your guests to use. It doesn't have to be a large tv, but one that will get the job done. Once you've decided on where to place the tv in the guest room, ensure that you place the control somewhere that guests can easily find it.

6. Choosing a Calming Paint Color

The paint color you select to use in the guest room will help tie everything together. From the décor accents that you've placed on the wall to the color of things like the rugs and quilt, you're going to use in the room.

Depending on the design theme that you want to use to decorate the room, you can visit your local hardware store and ask which paint colors will work the best for the theme you're going for. They'll point out a variety of colors, and from there you can make your choice.
