Are you that welcoming person who likes hosting friends at your place? Or maybe you are planning to host your parents from the village on Valentine's day?
Sometimes you run short of ideas on how to welcome and host friends in style.
You want them to notice something new in your guest room, but you are not figuring out how to do it.
If that is the case, you should not worry, just read on.
The following ideas when incorporated with what you have in mind will leave your guests eager to come again. They will be home away from home:
1.Create an atmosphere that awakens the senses
After sending out invitations, you should start thinking about the idea of having the visitors around.
Start by cleaning the outside environment, then mind the curtains plus freshening them up a few hours before the visitors arrive.
Have nice lighting if the visitors will stay overnight, and of course last but not least, select nice music for them.
For instance, if your guests prefer gospel music, don't play for them 'Tetema' by Diamond Platnumz.
2. Decorating the place
First, what do you have at hand? Start by just dusting off the place around the living room including the lights.
You can as well add some simple decors you have around the house or improvise some things to suit your needs; Youtube and Pinterest have great ideas for simple home decors and DIYs.
You can also try and change the pictures on the wall and install new ones.
3. Surprise them with the menu
Just because they are used to ugali every day does not mean you should present the same before them.
Surprise them with other recipes that are different from what they are used to at home.
