The "Expected" Unexpected Guest

It's guest season, and it's time to fight back!

The House of Cozy Guest Room

Hey there, friend! Do you ever feel like life is just one surprise after another? Well, get ready for a good one - because guess what? It’s Guest season and your unexpected guest has arrived! You're lounging on the couch, binge-watching the latest show, when suddenly the doorbell rings. There stands your friend, bag in hand, with a look that says "I hope you don't mind me crashing your party!" Fear not, friends, because I've got a five-step game plan that's about to turn your pop-up hosting gig into an art form.

Elevate your guest room experience with layered lighting, a plush bed setting, and cozy bedding – all curated by The Cabinista

Impromptu Hosting: 5 Steps to Turn Surprise Visits into Memorable Experiences with The Cabinista

Step 1: The Swift Sweep 🧹

Alright, first things first: the Speedy Spruce. Scoop up the strays into a laundry bin (closet storage, I'm looking at you) and give those surfaces a quick once-over. Who said tidy-ups couldn't be a sprint?

Step 2: Instant Luxe 🕯️

Here's where we cheat time with a bit of mood. Light up that room with a bedside tiny lamp (trust me, it's an atmosphere game-changer), or set the scent stage with a Skandinavisk diffuser. Peacefulness, anyone?

Step 3: Comfy Vibes Only ☁️

Nothing screams 'sanctuary' like cloud-like bedding. Toss on those Quince Linen Sheet Set, or these and fluff up some pillows

Designer Tip:

Keep an extra set just for occasions like this. Your future self (and guest) will thank you!

Step 4: Snack & Sip Station 🧀 ☕

Quick, assemble the mighty charcuterie board! Or, for that cherry-on-top, how about a cute little bedside spread with a kettle, tea, coffee, and some nibbles from Mouth? Midnight munchies, sorted.

Step 5: Those Heartfelt Extras 🌸 📔

Let's wrap it up with your signature touch. A neat towel stack, a sprig of flowers, and a handwritten note beside their bed. Oh, and if you really want to make them feel like royalty, a  Mark & Graham Guest Book for reflections and memories? Top-notch!

And there you have it, my impromptu innkeepers! 🥳

You've just turned a surprise into an experience. And remember, the tales born today will echo at dinner parties for years (yes, you're THAT friend now). So, keep this little guide in your back pocket, because the next time that doorbell chimes, it's not a scramble—it's your moment to shine! 🌟🚪

Happy hosting friends!

Peyton.
