Civilization taught us the art of standing
fixed within our own edifice of stones and gravels. And oh, does it not make us
thoroughly grateful at having ruled out the culture of nomads? As enticing as
that might sound, we also get to accommodate the fellow social mates we are
bound to by blood or love, in our very own construction. We brand them ‘guests’
who, no matter how frequently or seldom visit us, subconsciously expect a home
away from their home. Imparting them the comfort that they so deeply wish to
get hold of, is a responsibility that often bogs us down. We seem to be deficient
of ideas and efforts soon turn into uphill struggles.
But, worry not! To resolve the ubiquitous
guest bedroom woes, here we present to you some easy guest bedroom ideas that will ensure unadulterated comfort for all
your visitors. As a way of giving you a quick and easy reference, these
pointers have been split into - Design ideas and Decoration ideas for your guest
bedroom.
Guest Bedroom Design
Talking of the design, there are a myriad
of ways that you can make the visitors feel right at home. For small guest bedrooms, it is much better
to place a small bed instead of a queen sized bed to ensure spaciousness around
the room. A clever way of placing the bed for the said purpose is to move it
closer to the wall centrically in a way that it is moved away from the side
window, creating space on both sides of the bed. Additionally, the inessential
items must be transferred to some other place outside the room. For example, a
bulky, large wardrobe or furniture is uncalled for in a small bedroom. Also, it
is a good idea to use a small mirror on the wall rather than having a massive
one to make the whole room look airy.
For larger guest bedrooms, a Queen sized
bed or two small beds on two sides can be used. Some furnishings like a chair,
a dresser and a small table can be placed to give a comfortable vibe to the
guests. In addition, it would also give them a scope to use their laptops at
ease or use the table for writing as they please. It is also advisable to have
extra pillows on the bed to make it a cosy
guest bedroom. A nice dressing table and a small rack for storage can also
add to the overall comfort of the room.
Other vital essentials for a guest bedroom
include good lighting and ceiling fans or air conditioners. Soft lighting always
works wonders. However, try having an option for some bright light as well by
fitting in LED tubes that the visitors might require for various purposes.
Guest Bedroom Decoration
Nothing adds to the complete charm of a
room any day than the décor it houses and your guest bedroom must be no
exception. To begin with, choose a neutral colour palette or something as
soothing as a blue hue for the walls. You could also go for a Yellow or a Pink
for a fun spin. This would summon warmth and relaxation. Picking up a theme is
also a good guest bedroom décor idea. For example, does vintage appeal to you?
Or, do you want to go all white? A retro theme is also
pretty much in. Once you are sorted with the theme and colour, you could go
about placing matching furnishings in the room. White furnishings, for
instance, counter balance and complement the colourful retro room. By the same
token, you could use some classic wooden furniture to go with the vintage
theme. As a final toss, positioning a side table to the bed with a vase on it
casing some fresh flowers would be the cherry on the cake. Having a small lamp
also enhances the charisma of the room along with serving the dual
functionality of lighting. Bed side scones make for a perfect guest bedroom
ornamentation.
With all of the above things in place, all
your guests would swim across their stay quite delightfully without you having
to ache your head, we assure. So, go ahead. Revamp and renew your guest
bedrooms and give your loved once an experience that would make them stick
around you for the times ahead. Make it worthwhile, folks!
