One of the nicest places to touch up for visiting guests is the guest bathroom. Now we don’t always have a bathroom to spare but even if you don’t here are some nice touches to give it a welcoming touch for your guests.
How about a cute sign on the outside of the door that says where it is occupied or empty. A sing in French would be so nice. Get some supplies from your local craft store and whip one up in no time. Some unfinished wood, paint and the utilities to hang it with.
Upon entry to your bathroom try to have a soothing scent going in there always. A plug in diffuser or scented potpourri work here.
Clean is really the most important. Keep your guest bathroom clean. If it’s the guest bathroom it might not be getting much use so a cleaning after your guests have departed should suffice until the next visitor arrives. Have some truly lovely scented soaps for hand washing. Some people use little tiny scented bars. I love big moisturizing ones in all kinds of scents. If you go for the bigger bar keep your soap dish tidy. Remove excess soap and standing water from it. Better yet get one of those wooden drain type soap holders. And even better (and much more expensive) these great Provendi Revolving Soaps that mount to your wall and you roll them around to soap your hands. You can get refills for them too. I love soap so I love these. So absolutely chic.
Add some greenery. Could be fake could be real. Running out of counter space? A hanging plant is just as lovely. Nice towels just for your guests. Embellishments on the hem have a nice touch. You can buy them that way or if you’re handy with the crochet hook or tatting needle add the touch yourself. Or much easier use fusible webbing and iron on some decorative ribbon. Have more than one towel ready. A use or two and they’re ready for the wash.It does not take much at all to provide a welcoming place in your guest bathroom.
