What Makes a Good Guest? A Good Host? Guest Room?
Comments (71)Well, that's not our problem, for sure. Our Florida vacation guest room has an unfortunate limitation that prevents virtually all abuse -- it's just over 7' deep by 7' wide, with a pocket door, 2 small closets separated by built-in drawers to the right of the door and a single bed to the left, window straight ahead with a little side table below it. For obvious reasons it's used by easy-going singles who aren't claustrophobic, but it's nice and comfy and works very well. Notably (aside from a second single bed, writing table, and reading chair of course), it holds almost everything that article recommends. Extra pillows and blankets of varying softnesses and thicknesses, bath linens, small space heater, fan, are all ready in closets that are otherwise empty for guest use. An adjustable reading light is mounted on a wall so the little side table remains clear, and decor is simple and serene. The drawers are topped by a mirror, and their top holds a couple of welcoming things, including chargers plugged in and ready in a basket. Most of the other useful items mentioned in the article, including toiletries and meds, are waiting in the drawer(s). No TV so far, though I would like to add one, and flowers stay outside, but otherwise... Once the business of switching out the weird jello-wobbly bed that came with the place for a good one with soft, smooth linens was attended to, the rest of the comfort was/is easy and inexpensive....See MorePowder room amenities
Comments (9)that's a nice idea btw if applicable I have four bins in our kids/guest bath. (the vanity is open with shelf in the middle though) Three are dedicated, with a little nice sign(asked my DD to do that..cut out of nice paper and all, and attached with sort of a nice thread) with the name of whoever uses it, one has "Guests" written on it. when I'm not interested in seeing signs -when there are no guests-I just turn the bins the other way)) (if a guest arrives to stay for several days or weeks I write special sign with his name) I tell them is their bin, thy can put there their stuff as not to take it back and forth, and I can put there things they might need. so if you can find a way to mark the relevant drawer in a way that will fit your bathroom, and not read too..corporate-that's an option...See Moreguest room aka the giant world map room -how to work with it??
Comments (72)Btydrvn -these were a couple room inspiration photos that I found labelled as farmhouse- I don’t want a room with an identity crisis 🥴😂 what should I be calling this look or what style should I be aiming for so I’m minimizing the current crisis. I love the chandelier, wall color and bedding and am trying to make the bed frame work by painting it as it’s a spare that we already had and mom guilt prevents me from buying new. Bench was second hand etc....See MoreCombination Room: Office, Guest, Workout Room
Comments (10)You've put some limits on suggestions since you already have the desk and Murphy bed. If you asked before you got the desk, I would've suggested using perimeter of the room and walls for a shelf/desk that wraps around the window walls.Ikea tabletops could probably do the job or just go to Home Depot and get lumber cut to the right dimensions. Add storage below and wall shelves above. This setup leaves room to open the Murphy bed and leave your exercycle when you don't have a guest....See Moreartemis_ma
