Making Your Guest Bathroom Pop

After

Having your own home means, more often than not, you’ll be the host for everything under the sun. Friends will complain that hosting a reunion party or a major event just isn’t acceptable in their tiny apartment. That’s where your house comes in. Friends know you have a much larger space than they do in which to entertain. Look at your house as the equivalent of owning a truck. People will want to host events there and they’ll know exactly who to fall back on when it comes to having a place to host their event. When guests arrive, having your home looking beautiful is always important. Leaving guests with a lasting impression of your home will make you feel great as the host. One particular area of your home which visitors may end up visiting more than once is the guest bathroom. While it might be an afterthought, styling your guest bathroom will leave everyone impressed. Below are some tips for making sure your guest bathroom is inviting.

Splurge on Quality Linens

There’s nothing better than leaving guests with an extra soft feeling after leaving your bathroom. This comes in the form of quality towels. It might be an odd thing to consider at first. Why purchase special towels and linens for just one part of your home? It’s because, more than likely, you won’t be using that particular bathroom during your daily life. A guest bathroom is rarely used by anyone except guests. Purchasing pricier linens for the bathroom will leave customers with an amazing impression of your home and, of course, you as a host. Luxurious towels and cloths can be found at your local department store or even online. Coordinate the towels with the colors of your bathroom for a unified look. Some homeowners attempt to create a ‘hotel’ look to their bathroom, but giving the space a livelier interior will put your guests in a happier mood and won’t give them the cold impression a hotel bathroom may.

Give Your Bathroom Life

It’s a horrible experience walking into a cramped bathroom and feeling like you want to get out as soon as possible. This is especially true when it comes to a guest bathroom in someone’s home. As a host, you want your home to feel like a million bucks and guests leave with a great impression of how they were treated. Bringing life to your guest bathroom is an important factor in this. Don’t let your guest bathroom sit without updates. Don’t think of it as just that ‘spare’ bathroom that you and your family don’t really use. Consider your guest bathroom as a place where you can experiment. Change up the wall colors or try out that funky wallpaper you have been dying to see on the walls of your home. Give a life to the guest bathroom. Visitors will compliment you on trying out new ideas and, when they next return, you might have a brand new pattern. Using your guest bathroom as a place of experimentation benefits both you and your guests.

Unique Touches

Nothing beats those unique touches when you’re visiting someone’s home. For example, soft towels and nice soaps are unique touches which put your trip to a certain place over the top. Bringing that sort of uniqueness to your guest bathroom is a perfect way to treat your guests as though they are staying at a beautiful resort instead of just visiting a friend. One good idea is to set out a bowl full of mints in your bathroom. Whether your guests are just visiting or staying a little longer, mints are a great way to give your guests a unique treat. Another option is adding a collection of lotions and perfumes which your guests might browse on their way out of the bathroom. Once your guest finds a collection of items to refresh with, returning to the party or event will leave them with a fresh feeling and a great view of your hosting abilities.
