3 Brilliant Ways to Plan Your Home for Everyday Use & Entertaining
Do you shy away from entertaining because you feel like all the prep is just too much? Maybe you feel like your everyday living space just won’t mesh with a house full of people.
Entertaining friends and family becomes easy when your home has all the necessary pieces. Having a home that caters to everyday use, guests, and special events is ideal for every homeowner.
So today, I’m sharing 3 brilliant tips that will help you create a home that is ready for entertaining but also comfortable to live in...
1. Develop a Seating Plan
Planning is key to having seating available while hosting. It can mitigate the stress of entertaining if you have a plan in place. So, here’s the plan...
Create a dining space that can be easily modified for guests. To do this, choose a dining table that has an extension to create more spots at the table. Then pull chairs from other parts of the home can be brought in to accommodate extra guests during special occasions.
2: Use Creative Storage Solutions
When creating a floor plan for you, we ask many questions to determine your present and future needs. For example, if you have a set of special serve ware you use during the holidays, we want to make sure your design includes storage solutions for those things.
We may incorporate a credenza, sideboard, or display case that adds to the room's design and serves as storage. Then special event items like linens and serving ware are readily at hand and ready to go when needed.
3: Seasonal Decor Organization
It pays to be organized when storing your seasonal decor. Clear bins with labels that clearly identify the items inside are a huge time saver. This helps you access the items and put them away once the season is over.
