I am sure you have guessed by now that I love checked fabric. From the first time I saw the Williamsburg Tavern check fabric, I was hooked.
Our guest room has a bay window that overlooks the walled garden. While this is a lovely sight during the day, at night those windows have to be covered. I selected a coral-and-cream large plaid in linen for the draperies. I covered the small sofa in solid coral linen to match. I want my guests to enjoy their stay and feel at home.
I found a luggage stand at a local store and bought one for the room. I keep it in the closet and bring it out as needed. It is much easier to unpack a suitcase when you have one of these.
I selected a cream bed coverlet with matching pillow shams. I decided on king-size beds for every bedroom, as buying linens is simplified greatly. I use white linens only, as they can be kept bright white for a very long time.
A guest room is the perfect place to decorate with things you love. I like to change photos for each guest to one that includes them. It’s fun to see their reaction when their photo is on the chest in the room. Have fun making your guest room a special place.
What do you do for your guests when they come for a visit?
