Time to Get Guest Ready
November is upon us, which means the countdown to Christmas is well and truly on. This year, we’re all hoping for a calmer and more joyful festive period, and most importantly one that we can spend together with our nearest and dearest.
Many guest bedrooms were left guestless last year, but this year they’re back in the running which means now is the perfect time to get your guest bedroom ready so that it’s warm, welcoming and styled to perfection.
A narrower profile
For those guest bedrooms that are on the petite size, meet our Aubrey range. Meticulously crafted with smooth edges and peg detail, Aubrey is perfect for those seeking narrower profile furniture. Our Aubrey Bed and Aubrey Rattan Bed have no foot end which help to make smaller rooms feel bigger and they also have a low headboard which avoids the bed feeling overwhelming, especially if the architecture of your room includes sloping loft ceilings.
Our coordinating Aubrey furniture range, which includes bedsides, a tallboy and chest of drawers, all feature distinctive Aubrey style details and all offer a narrower silhouette, perfect for smaller bedrooms. This allows the room to breathe yet not feel unloved or empty of furniture.
When versatility is a must
With working from home now being the norm for the majority of people, many guest bedrooms have been turned into home offices. But there always seems to be a comprise… removing the guest bed feels like you’ve lost a valuable space in the house but squeezing a desk and chair into the corner of the room feels like only a marginal upgrade from the kitchen table.
But there is a way around it. To maximise space and add versatility, enter our Oliver Day and Guest Bed. Adorned with cushions and throws, the Day Bed works beautifully as somewhere to sit or lounge (whether working or not) and creates extra floor space. Then when guests do come to stay, the Guest Bed can be rolled out, attached and hey presto, you have a spacious, comfortable bed your guests.
A style and storage hero
If your guest bedroom lacks storage space, an ottoman bed solves everything. Our Juliette Ottoman is upholstered in a gorgeously soft, silver plush velvet and offers discreet yet generous storage without compromising on style. All our ottoman beds are operated with a piston lift mechanism, and Juliette is no exception.
Classically styled with an elegant tall headboard and deep buttoning, Juliette it will make a beautiful statement in any bedroom. And the underbed storage space is perfect for seasonal bedding and bed linen… or an ever-growing shoe collection. You can never have too many pairs in our opinion.
Bed linen that feels as good as it looks
Our Margot Bed Linen is elegant, calming and perfectly pretty. The delicate sage green stitching is just so lovely and if you’re wanting to add that festive flair, pop a sprig of holly or fern tied with a ribbon and pine cone onto your guests’ pillows. The crisp green and white of this bed linen present a perfect backdrop for Christmas styling.
If you’re after the full stats, this blissful bed linen is 100% cotton sateen, has a thread count of 300, and features an elegant double Oxford edge. The lightness of touch Margot brings has to be experienced, whether it’s you or your guests.
The time to get guest ready is upon us, and we hope that whatever size or challenges your guest bedroom brings, we can help you furnish it with both style and practicality.
