3 ways to plan for sleepover guests
You never know when extra guests are going to pop up, particularly during the holiday season. It’s best to always be prepared with a comfortable, space-saving solution that makes hosting overnight a breeze.
1. How do you store several beds in one spot? Simply stack a few mattresses on one bed frame. Cover them with contrasting textiles for a cool, graphic effect and unstack when guests show up. And because privacy is key, use a shelf bracket to hang a canopy.
2. Cityscape or sleeping space? Well, both. Create the outline of a skyline using black tape and secure your mattress to the wall with a bracket. The graphic textile adds an extra element of style.
3. A flexible foam mattress folds up easily and can be stored away with a simple DIY cover next to a day bed. When guests arrive, lay out the mattress, push the bed back against the wall and use the cover as a room divider for privacy.
