Preparing your guest bedroom for a family visit

With the Easter holidays finally here, many of us are either considering enjoying spending time with family or focusing on a spot of DIY, or a bit of both!

If you are hoping to host family visits throughout this year’s weekends and holidays, then creating a guest bedroom which feels lovely when your visitors are staying with you will give everyone that nice warm feeling. After all, there’s nothing better than making people feel right at home, in a place that feels special and comfortable to be in.

So, this month Cush Cush are focusing on improving the look of your guest bedroom by offering some quick tips on how to improve the style.

Guest bedroom interior improvements

1. Firstly, clear out the space – Your guests will immediately feel revived if they enter an open and clear / uncluttered room. If you’ve been using the room as back up storage for your own things, then it’s time to have a clear out or create some clever storage which will hide your possessions. Remember that they will also be coming with their own bags and so will need some space to store or hang clothes, etc.
2. Clean the room from top to bottom – Pay particular attention to the higher corners of the room, lower woodwork and behind furniture for that extra deep clean.
3. Touch up the paintwork – If you are happy with the décor colour of the room but some marks just won’t remove, then the walls and woodwork may just need a quick spot paint, especially around doorways, light switches, and skirting board.
4. Revive with a new colour scheme – Without decorating a room, you can quickly revive the space with accent colours through vibrant bedding, cushions, prints and ornaments. This will give the room an immediately lift to the eye.
5. Add a king-size bedspread and matching roman blinds – With the bed at centre stage and delightful views out of the window, creating feature pieces by using stunning fabrics can truly set off a guest bedroom. Don’t forget, Cush Cush supply a beautiful range of fabrics, or you can send us your own fabric. Choose a quilting pattern and we’ll create a quilted bedspread in any size and complimentary roman blinds to match.

Finally, we guarantee that by bringing all of the interior elements together you will certainly create a harmonious guest bedroom design which you will be proud of and that everyone will love to stay in!
