I know that not many of us are lucky enough to have space for a guest bedroom and we often have to make do with a sofa bed in the lounge. However, maybe you have a large house or your children have left home and you are now thinking of decorating your spare bedroom to make your guets comfortable.

So here are some tips:

• Do not use the bedroom as a junk room, otherwise it will take you hours of work to tidy it up when you have a guest. Bite the bullet and declutter instead and the bedroom will always be ready when you need it.
  

• Include some built in storage and leave at least part of it for your guests to use.
  

• Add a bedside table, a reading light and plenty of plump pillows.
  

• No need to buy a state-of-the-art bed but make sure that the mattress is comfortable and doesn’t have lumps

• When your guests arrive, place a couple of flowers in a vase. A nice touch is always welcome. However don’t be tempted to put a large bouquet of flowers in the bedroom as the smell could be too overpowering and unpleasant during the night.

• If your guests have to use the main bathroom, don’t forget to place some clean towels for their own use.
  

Enjoy the visit!

Summer is coming up in a few months and it’s time to get your hair cut and shortened in order to make yourself comfortable in the hotter weather. There is nothing worse than having your hair flying around, making you itch and causing allergic reactions. And what about the condition of your hair, which has survived the dry Winter weather and makes you look like Little Orphan Annie from the musical play?

Little Orphan Annie brings to mind another thing about your hair - what about adding a bit of colour to it, ready for Spring? Now, I don’t mean to say that you should dye it purple or yellow or pink, to match Easter eggs, but a colour wash or rinse would really brighten it up. Perhaps streaks of blonde would give it the California beach look. And if you go to California for your vacation, you can look like you’ve lived there for quite a while. Of course, if you lack a suntan there’s not much to be done about that except to seek out a tanning salon.
