Easy Ways to Decorate a Guest Room

March 19, 2023

New homes in Frisco TX often have more bedrooms than a family needs. One of the best ways to use an extra bedroom is to make it a guest room. Keeping a dedicated guest room means you are always ready to host a visiting friend or family member with very little preparation.

However, you probably don’t want to bust your budget on decorating a room that is only used a few weeks or nights of the year. Here are some easy and inexpensive ways to decorate your guest room:

1. Start with what you have. Do you already own a comforter, bedspread or quilt that you can use as the basis for your décor? Besides saving you money, this step helps you pick a color scheme and mood for the room.
2. Add some artwork. Having pictures on the wall will make the room feel more home-like. Save money by purchasing inexpensive prints at a thrift shop or yard sale. You could also buy frames to display artwork created by your kids or yourself.
3. Consider the lighting. Supplement the ceiling light with a bedside lamp and a nightlight near the door. It may also be a good idea to add a nightlight in the hallway or guest bath.
4. Think about window coverings. If there is a lot of artificial light outside, your guests may appreciate blackout shades or thick blinds. Soften the look with curtains that coordinate with the colors in the bedding.
5. Finish with accessories to pull the room together. A few books on the nightstand, a cute basket of travel-size toiletries and a soft rug will make the room cozy for your visitors.
