Familiar artwork<br />

Consider hanging photos of family gatherings or vacations with friends on the walls or place them<br />

on end tables. Your guests might be thrilled to spot themselves in a few of the framed photos found<br />

throughout their room.<br />

Key amenities<br />

The bedroom should have an alarm clock, paper pencils, and maybe a sewing kit and safety pins. A sound<br />

machine, or box fan, can help mask noise both inside and outside the home. A nightlight will provide<br />

just enough light to safely guide guests from their bedroom to the closest bathroom. A covered pitcher<br />

of water with glasses, or water bottles are easy touches.<br />

Bathroom supplies<br />

It’s a good idea to have your guest bath stocked with a few essentials, in case they were overlooked when<br />

packing. Arrange personal care items in a basket or fun container. Including soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes,<br />

shampoo, conditioner, lotion, cotton swabs, disposable razors, bandages, and the like will be a<br />

relief for guests who don’t want to inconvenience you or run to the store themselves.<br />

A box of tissues in plain sight and a stack of towels are always appropriate. Make sure there are extra<br />

rolls of toilet paper. And you can’t go wrong having a blow dryer handy. ➻<br />
