The easy trick interior stylists use to make a guest bedroom look expensive – and I’ve found a way to do it for under £30

When life gets busy, my guest bedroom tends to be the room where everything I haven’t had time to deal with gets stashed out of sight, from laundry that hasn’t been folded to all those half-finished projects I’m definitely going to get around to sorting out *next* weekend.

However, visitors are on the horizon. If you have guests incoming for Mother’s Day or Easter, then, just like me, you might have suddenly realised you need to get your guest bedroom looking ship-shape and functional again.
