Simplify and declutter The first step in preparing your home for guests is to simplify and declutter the space. Remove any unnecessary items and clutter to create a clean and inviting environment. Focus on creating open and spacious areas that allow guests to move freely and comfortably throughout your home. Neutralise and freshen Create a neutral and inviting atmosphere by choosing a cohesive colour scheme and adding personal touches to enhance the space. Freshen up carpets, soft furnishings and curtains regularly to keep the space smelling clean and inviting. Styling and atmosphere Add warmth and personality to your home with thoughtful styling and decor. Incorporate elements like fresh flowers, candles, and artwork to create a welcoming atmosphere that reflects your personal style. Lighting Use ‘warm-white’ light bulbs for a brighter appearance in your space. Soften potentially offending views, but always let light into your rooms. Consider replacing heavy curtains with something lighter. Living area Ensure the TV and entertaining area are functioning well, and all cords are as hidden as possible. Clean and organise all storage spaces to reflect stylish, easy living. Dining room Like the living area, your dining room should be an inviting part of your home. Consider setting the table for an informal meal and add an attractive centerpiece arrangement, like fresh flowers or a bowl of fruit. Interior. 2
