Our kids are grown now so preparing for them to come home for the holidays means getting all our extra beds & bedrooms ready too.
Family or friends, if anyone is sleeping over you can make your guest bedroom cozy and comfortable for your guests during the holidays. No need to spend a lot of money to have your loved ones feel warm and welcome. Simple additions, like a throw blanket, holiday pillow shams and a decorative pillow. Plus a few Christmas home decor items on the nightstand. All so easy, yet come together beautifully.
Guest Bedroom #1
Some simple touches include:
* 2 small wreaths hang with ribbon with 2 shabby chic frames * a warm and comfy cozy throw * 2 pretty red Christmas shams * a decorative holiday pillow * some special snuggly holiday pjs * assorted pretty holiday decor on the nightstand
The small wreaths were purchased at a local craft store. They are hung onto handpainted shabby chic frames with a pretty gingham ribbon.
When the kids came home for Thanksgiving, the room was ready with a welcome note and an advent calendar to kick off the holiday season.
