It’s often the most neglected room in the house, until company is coming. Then you scramble around looking for bedding, cleaning out the clutter and tidying. The guest room should be a place of solitude for your company instead of a source of worry for you. Learn how to set up and decorate this room in a simple, stylish way.

The spare room is usually called out for duty when your guests need a place to sleep over night. It’s important that you have clean and quality linens on hand for those occasions. Store three to four sets of comfortable towels in a neutral color in the closet. Also, you’ll need two sets of well made sheets sets and two soft, warm bedding quilts. The bed will need four firm pillows. All of the linens should be in a neutral pattern and color.

For comfort and convenience make sure to include these items in your spare room as well. On the nightstand there should be a reading lamp and an alarm clock. Set the clock to the correct time and check that the lamp is plugged in and working before your guests go to bed. Install a mirror in the room to assist them with getting dressed and provide space for their clothing and luggage. A large dresser and clear room in the closet is a good idea.

The style of furniture should be solid and understated. Natural wood furniture is an excellent choice. Purchase a set including two nightstands and a bed as large as the room can handle. Sleigh beds are a good bet for an attractive style that isn’t too bold. Stay away from bright colors, brass or gold accents and anything that will date the furniture.

Stick with subtle art or landscape photos on the walls. Decide on a theme for the room if you like, such as a favorite sport, vacation spot or simply a color scheme. Large prints work well on wide walls and smaller pictures can be arranged together for an attractive look. Window coverings need to be room darkening for your guests, but also should be made to pull out of the way for plenty of natural light.

Extra bedding can simply be folded and placed on the Sleigh bed. Put the extra pillows in the closet and keep the top of the furniture free from clutter. In the closet, neatly arrange your own storage in bins or boxes for a tidy, organized look.

Follow these simple steps to setting up and decorating your guest room and get rid of any worry about having company. They will feel right at home.
