Make Your Spare Bedroom Multi-task

Not everyone has an entire room to dedicate as a full-time spare bedroom, but it doesn't mean you don't want overnight guests to feel welcome and wanted. Whether you're having guests stay in your office, game room or bonus room, the trick is to create a room where the furnishings provide multiple functions - both for you and the occasional visitor.

Here are a few key pieces that will make your room functional and inviting at the same time.

A few reminders

Before guests arrive, remove any unnecessary furniture or clutter that makes the room feel crowded, even if you just have to move it until your guests leave. No one likes to stay in a room where they can barely make a path to the bed or unpack a suitcase.

Also, don't forget to vacuum and dust the room to make sure it looks and smells fresh for your guests. To freshen a musty mattress, sprinkle baking soda all over the mattress. Let it sit overnight, then vacuum it up the next day. Throw already-washed sheets back into the dryer to freshen them up. Freshen pillows by air-drying them in the dryer with a fabric softener sheet.

Other items to provide in the room include a clock radio, a notepad and pen, wastebasket, sewing kit, window treatments or shades for privacy, and facial tissues.

It's always the little touches that transform an ordinary room into something special. With a few pieces of multitasking furniture and some finishing touches, you can transform any room in your house into a welcoming space for all of your guests.
