People love to socialize, and are often looking for new reasons to schmooze anytime, anywhere. That said, if you invite your friends and business associates to your place to fraternize and most of them give you an excuse, you might have some problems to be worried about!
Any friend should love to come over and see you. If your friends are giving you the cold shoulder, then you might need a décor makeover—or at least some basic consideration to keep your place welcoming and comfortable for your guests. Here are some décor considerations that your place must have before you throw a get-together!
1. Cleanliness
The first thing that should pop up in your mind is if your place has a reputation for being untidy and messy! We’re sure that even you wouldn’t want to visit a friend or colleague’s place that’s dirty and messy. You need to make an effort to clean your place and let others know that you don’t live in the same old untidy and gross pad from years before.
Keep your place clean and be proud of it! Share images of your revamped house on social networking sites like Facebook and Instagram. Let your friends see your clean and tidy décor and they’ll be begging to come over to see your place. So put in the effort, and you’ll be happy with the results.
2. Space
Mingling in a congested space isn’t enjoyable for anyone. If you know that there isn’t enough space, there’s no use in inviting that many people to come by.
In this case, the only solution you have is to invite a smaller number of friends to your place, and set the mood accordingly. If there is space for ten people to hang out comfortably, invite seven or maybe eight people so that no one feels cramped. Inviting too many people will force them to be uncomfortable from the start till the end of the party. Put simply, you’d be making them grumpy all night, and they’ll not want to come back to your place again. If you do not want that to happen, make an effort to plan your event in a way that everyone has breathing room.
3. The look of your house
How beautiful is your house? We know you have the answer to that question, and if you’re disappointed with that answer, there are a lot of things that can be done to fix it.
To start, you can repaint the house and opt for vibrant colors to make the house look beautiful. We’re not saying that you should ignore white and other light shades, but having vibrant colors in your house will make people feel good about being at your place. On a similar track, you can get new furniture or even a new set of blinds or shades for your windows. Blinds and shades are a great way to renovate the home without upending all your furniture, and are much more affordable. Go for custom Graber blinds to enhance the look of your house, and get them in matching and complimentary colors. When one of your friends visits your place after your home’s makeover, you’ll immediately see the impact good décor has on others.
4. Your restrictions
Everyone has some kinds of restrictions or unique conditions in their home, and they can be a huge factor when it comes to planning an enjoyable get-together. For example, if your neighbors sleep early and you want to play upbeat music after they sleep, you have some issues to sort out. If you live in a remote location, it may not be practical for your guests to drive home late at night, so you may want to suggest hotels nearby.
