Get Ready for Guests

Added Amenities

If you have some extra time and energy to spare before guests arrive, consider adding a sink to your guestroom.

With the addition of a mirror and sconces, this solution provides the perfect face-washing and shaving nook. The homeowners masterminded this amenity by building out two adjacent closets to create a central alcove just large enough for a pedestal sink. The wall behind the fixture is faced with beaded board and painted to match the room's trim, which protects the area from water damage.

Don't have the time or funds to install an in-room sink? Make sure fresh towels and toiletries are available in the bedroom. For added luxury, offer guests extra robes.
