House Guests

< One of my favorite rooms in our house- a guest bedroom >

Over the weekend my husband and I enjoyed the company of some special friends who stayed overnight at our place.  While I love a super clean house, I do not always have time to make everything perfectly clean.  However, I know that some small details in decorating and supplying needed items can make all the difference, so this is what I enjoy excelling at.  A little extra time focusing on small amenities is what can make the difference between a needy guest and one that is entirely comfortable in your home.  Hopefully all of these little touches described in this post make our guest room one of the best places to stay- that's always my goal. You can read more about the two guest rooms currently in our home here, here, and here.  Tell me, what do you like providing for guests that stay over in your home?

< Other bedside items: a table lamp for reading, a clock radio, and a bedside carafe with coasters >
