How to decorate your guest room in a homely way.


If you have an extra room in your house or apartment, you may be faced with the challenge of decorating it homely. After all, you want your guests to feel at home there and enjoy visiting. At the same time, you want to please all tastes.

When your loved ones come to visit, it's best if they can spend the night with you, so you can make the most of your time together. To make your guest room feel homey, it's important that it has the same coziness as the rest of the house and doesn't look like a bare, unused space. 

To make even spontaneous guests feel comfortable and not like they're causing you trouble, remember to always make sure that the guest room always looks inviting.

Make the guest room lively.


To make your guests feel at home, it's important that the guest room has a lively and homely feel. So, set up the room the way you'd like it to feel when you're a guest. Decorate the walls with stylish posters from Posterton to keep the guest room from looking bare. A sterile-looking room rarely makes you feel at home. Juicy colors and cozy textiles, on the other hand, will create coziness in no time. 

To bring the room to life, you can add plants - ideally low-maintenance plants, so you don't have to worry too much about them. Another plus: a combination of stylish and natural accents will please almost all tastes.

 

This is how you find the right style of furniture.

The size of the room determines to a certain extent what furniture and furnishings are possible. Nevertheless, a small room can appear larger, especially through clever furnishing. For example, a room can be visually enlarged by light walls (for example, light gray or white walls) and the right furniture. If you're having a hard time deciding on a decorating style, we recommend checking out our other blogposts about current decorating trends to get inspiration for your own four walls.

Here are a few examples of how you can visually enlarge a room with the right furniture:

1.

A sofa bed that folds up during the day and unfolds into a bed at night.

2.

In general, furniture that serves different functions, such as a chair that can be used for sitting, but also as a bedside table.

3.

Wall mirrors, as they give the feeling that the room goes even further.
