Being Guest Ready

Whether you are looking forward to extra guests coming before the end of summer, or awaiting their arrival for the holidays (which won't be long!)...you'll want to be sure your guest bedrooms are welcoming.  So, in preparation, let's get started with some ideas...


This is a sea inspired retreat and the canopy makes it all the more special.  I love the blue, green and white color scheme!

Here is yet another tranquil feel and look at all the details put into this room design...the tufted headboard and footboard (luscious!) and the drapery border.  

This one has a bit more pop of color and a great personality.  I like putting in some extra "unexpected" touches in our designs too...like the people standing at the window...LOVE it!


A feminine glow of sunshine in this guest retreat.  I like the toile fabric and the parrot lamp!  I also like the richness of the darker furniture finishes (and the ceiling) used with the soft yellows.

What a great idea to add a headboard...use a picket fence!  I love the extra charm it gives this room...not to mention those brackets in the corner.

Perhaps you are into more clean lines...are you?  This little space was turned into a great guest room and I love how the ledge serves as a table for lamps and a headboard.  Really cool.


Pale lavender walls and deeper purples on the bed...isn't this grand?

Are YOUR guest bedrooms ready for company?  Which bedroom colors and style would you choose?

Have a "Simply Irresistible" Day!

  1. Looking at your July blog I am wondering if you could point me in the right direction. i absolutely love the picket fence head board but I am also interested in the beautiful comforter It is yellow, blue, white, green stripes and I have searched everywhere looking for one. Do you know where I can find it?
    Thanks a bunch!

  2. Hi Michelle. Thanks for stopping by our blog! I too did a little more research to see if the sources of the bedding was given by TH. It wasn't. You could possibly find a striped fabric that would work and then have a duvet or coverlet made. I know it would probably be more of an investment that way, but you would get just the right "look" you want for your room. Wish I could have been of more help! Have a great day!
