With Christmas coming this week, I wanted to share my favorite tips for preparing a guest room on a budget. These are quick tips (all take minutes or seconds to prepare) with big impact. Enjoy time with your family!
PRODUCTS MENTIONED:
Mattress Topper (very good deal right now!)
Luggage rack
Our new headboard
RECIPE FOR MUSTY TOWELS:
Sprinkle 1/3 cup of baking soda into drum/on towels
Add 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar to fabric softener well (or during the rinse cycle if an older machine)
Wash on hot
The vinegar acts as a softener and the baking soda neutralizes odors. It seems counterproductive, but many times towels smell because of soap build up in them. You will LOVE how neutral they smell after this treatment. Add essential oil to the load if you wish.

Great post as always. Just had guests for 2 days recently–I didn’t do ANY of the things you suggested! I hope they come back someday & I will know how to be a better hostess!
You really amazed me of your simple things that can be done without spending so much. Merry Christmas to you and your family Kathryn. I look forward to more videos.
love it. just beautiful and thoughtful.
Our third rounds of guests just left yesterday. Wish I’d seen this sooner, but will definitely make some of these to prep for our next guests in February! TFS and happy new year! Hugs, Kristina
Love these ideas. Now if only my house was as clean as yours! I will work on it
