Curtains for Small Guest Room
Comments (12)Hi rhododendron13, This compact guest room has a lot of potential to fit your description of a room that is elegant, tasteful and welcoming. As you mentioned in your post, curtains with a swag and tail may not have space to hang freely beside the bed, but there are several options you can go for. A curtain with details on the top half of the window would resolve the issue, with a simple tail falling beside the bed. If you were looking for options to maximise space you may want to consider some DIY options which also provide privacy and style to the room. Our Venetians and Cellular Blinds are stocked at Bunnings around Australia, and Mitre10 also stock our Rollers Blinds all of which are easy to install. The variety of material options in these styles are good for choosing one that suits your taste. I would suggest blockout roller blinds, which offer the level of privacy you would want in a guest room, while appealing to many people in its simple style and design. For your convenience I've included an example: Amor Roller Blinds Installation · [More Info[(https://www.houzz.com.au/photos/amor-roller-blinds-installation-contemporary-bathroom-melbourne-phvw-vp~52165450) Hope this helps - good luck with the search!...See MoreGuest room transformation to a light filled romantic retreat.

Comments (12)I have a separate guest toilet without windows using a ceiling extractor fan - not a problem. I also have internal cavity sliding doors to bathrooms and toilets and love how they give extra space and options regarding placement of items. Another location alternative for you may be between the cinema room and the kitchen, depending on what you had planned for that extra space in the kitchen. Two metres is a wide hallway, if that is what it is? Ours is 1.3 which is considered wide (as we need to accommodate a wheelchair which has to turn into doorways). An advantage of a very wide hallway is it gives room for extra furniture placement such as bookshelves, linen or other cupboards if needed. I don't see a linen cupboard or pantry cupboard in your plans. Something else to think about is future proofing - try to cover future possibilities with regard to function, as making structural or fittings changes later can be more expensive, and may come at a time when you can least afford it (e.g. injured, disabled, children, aging or other such people visiting your home). Lives change, sometimes over time, sometimes in an instant, and suddenly the doors are not wide enough (especially the toilet door!), or the walls are not strong enough for a weight-bearing rail, and a host of other things. We put 900cm doors as a minimum and it makes life a lot easier, including moving furniture in and out. Universal Design principles are worth a look. Sadly these considerations are currently considered special or optional, although there are moves to change that, so that builders and architects will consider these things as standard....See MoreNeed ideas for my guest room
Comments (39)If I was a visitor I'd always want several things in a guest room. First a comfortable bed, but I also love bedside lights that allow me to read in bed, attractive pictures (prints) on the walls that blend colours from your bedding, maybe a bookcase with some books that also has space for me to set out makeup etc. In a friend's place on Jersey our rom also had a basket full of "things" - everything from toothbrushes through washing goodies, nice smelling skin lotion, and anything else you can think of. The bedside tables you have hold virtually nothing, so something with a cupboard or some drawers would be useful. You might also think of painting the wall behind the bed to also pick up colours from bedding/prints....See MoreNikki Vaz
