Posted on - 4th November 2019

Are you entertaining guests in your home this Christmas? If so, you might be fretting about where you can put everyone. From getting the whole family around the dining room table for Christmas dinner to ensuring everyone has a warm and comfy bed to snuggle into after all the celebrations are over, organising a house full of people is no mean feat.

In this post, we’ll be giving you some handy tips on how to carve out a comfortable and welcoming spaces for your guests over the Christmas period. Read on to get started!

Sumptuous Seating To Sofa Bed

If you’ve not got a guest room, or have more guests coming to stay than bedrooms, then a sofa bed is a staple when entertaining. Compact and often stylish, sofa beds are a space saving way of sleeping more people without leaving one of your guests curled up in a chair. Both the Lexi and Poppy sofa beds from Alstons are convertible and comfortable to both seat and sleep guests no matter the occasion and are available in either 2 seater or 3 seater varieties. While the Mya Sofa Bed is a compact piece of furniture that easily converts.

What’s more, a sofa bed doesn’t just have to live in the lounge. They can be placed in larger rooms, too, adding more seating to your home and a comfortable place to rest your head!

Corner Sofas & Corner Groups

For large families, corner sofas are a sure-fire way to sit everyone comfortably without squabbles. Available in a wide variety of designs, including corner chaises and L-shaped layouts with 2, 3, or 4 seats.

No matter the size of your living room, a corner sofa is a fantastic space saving choice that looks effortlessly modern and luxurious. At Toons, many of our corner groups are available in a wide range of fabrics and colours to suit your interior design style.

Multi-Purpose & Effortless Day Beds

Day beds are a fantastic addition to any home. Not only do they look the part, they also serve as seating and a place for your guests to rest your head. Often single beds, many are available with a pull out trundle and will transform into a double bed whenever you need it. Yet, when not in use, they’re attractive pieces of furniture that can be customised with colourful bedding, throws, scatter cushions and more to compliment your home.

Bunk Up

Day beds are great for kids. But bunk beds are much more fun! Perfect for impromptu sleepovers and guests large and small, bunk beds are a fantastic space saving addition to children’s bedrooms that will make entertaining a breeze.

Now, there are a wide range of bunk bed designs available including traditional single frames, bunk beds with desks and storage space, even bunk beds with double beds at the bottom! No matter what, these versatile pieces of bedroom furniture were made for guests!

Are You Sitting Comfortably?

When it comes to everyone’s favourite meal of the year, sitting everyone comfortably around the dining table can be a bit of a struggle. But an extending table is a fabulous way to make room for those extra hungry tums on Christmas Day.

At Toons, we have a wide range of extending dining tables available to buy including the Anslow extending dining table and the Castle Oak extension leaf. With the right amount of dining chairs and a table that can be made bigger easily at the first sniff of guests, you’ll be well equipped to entertain throughout the seasons.
