Rustic farmhouse décor: the must-have interiors trend for summer 2025
This summer, when it comes to styling your home, escape the city and embrace all things pastoral.
Hosting guests for Christmas can be one of the best parts of the season, bringing everyone together under one roof to share in the festive spirit! A few simple preparations can make your home feel extra welcoming. Here are three ways to get guest-ready:
Nothing says “welcome” like fresh bedding. Start with clean sheets, pillowcases, and a warm duvet to make the bed feel inviting. If you have winter bedding, such as flannel sheets or an extra-thick blanket, now’s the time to use it. Small touches like a throw blanket or festive pillow can add a little Christmas charm without going overboard. Consider leaving an extra blanket nearby for guests who might want more warmth.
Offering each guest a set of fresh towels is a small but thoughtful gesture. Prepare a bath towel, hand towel, and washcloth for each guest and leave them on the bed or in the bathroom. Toiletries, like shampoo and soap, can be a helpful touch—especially for those travelling from further away.
A little extra room for your guests’ things goes a long way. If possible, clear a drawer or make a bit of space in the wardrobe with some spare hangers. A few hooks or an over-the-door hanger can also be helpful for coats or bags if space is tight. Adding a small tray or bedside table for essentials like phones and keys will make it easy for guests to settle in and feel comfortable.
Enjoy a Warm and Welcoming Christmas
By adding fresh bedding, towels, and making room for their belongings, you’re creating a space where guests can truly relax. These small preparations allow everyone to enjoy a fun and stress-free holiday together, making your Christmas gathering as warm and memorable as possible.
