Beegadz's Profile

I currently have a one room studio that is about 270 sq feet and I've had 4 guests (one couple) stay over for three different weekends since I moved in September. My boyfriend, cat and I both call this space home so it's already a little crowded!

I have another guest staying this weekend so I'm prepping now. There is no eat-in kitchen or really even any closet space

1) I did a thorough cleaning yesterday so everything feels less cluttered and I'm preparing a corner for a large suitcase to call its home while my guest is here. This will probably involve lots of stacking.
2) I bought a two-seater fold-out couch (Softee-Jennifer Convertibles) because I know that guests are going to want to come mooch off me since I live in NYC
3) I never give up my bed to guests unless they are parents of myself or my boyfriend. You don't want to splurge for a hotel? You pay the price!
4) I store warm blankets, clean sheets and two guests pillows in a storage ottoman. Works as extra seating too!
5) We literally only have two of each utensil so I guess eating out will be the way to go. It happens to be my birthday weekend so that works too.

I always make sure to fold the couch back in every morning, clean up clothes/dishes, every day and let everyone take their time in the bathroom since changing has to happen in there too.

Awesome ideas! This helped me think a little outside of my normal wrapping paper or newspaper approach.

@pranav A lot of specialty poster stores will have prints like that, if you have one nearby. Additionally, if you just put the work into Google - something should come up!

I LOVE this place. My apartment is like the poor man's version of this.
