Our guest room doubles as a study, not ideal, but it prevents either from becoming a general dumping ground. This double use allows no space for a wardrobe so I have finally got around to providing some hanging space for guests clothes.
A recent visit to Listowel gave me time to browse in the gorgeous Elizabelle where I stumbled upon these two rose hooks and now they adorn our guest room wall, practical and beautiful!
This would also be a good solution if your guest room does have a wardrobe but it has been filled with other things - save yourself the stress of clearing space for guests clothes and get two hooks.
P.S. I still haven't hoovered up the plaster dust from the drilling -too busy admiring my handiwork!

thanks, I think so too. The room is looking much better now with the paper mountain gone. A lot done, more to do but no expense account!

Thanks Gerry, nice to have decent photo of the 4 of us. Delighted to plug Bandon Books, hope loads of people buy their Christmas presents from you. Do you have Donal Skehan's cook book in yet?

Genius idea. Any solutions for hanging/displaying necklaces? I'm at at a loss and currently hanging them all on the bathroom door knob which means they are not individually visible so I dont end up wearing them!

Hi Whatshewears, I haven't actually got around to this but those self adhesive plastic hooks on the inside of a wardrobe door should work well.
Necklaces won't catch dust inside a press so easily and a wardrobe door would provide enough space to have a hook for each necklace or two.
Just make sure the hooks aren't in a place on the door that meets a shelf when the wardrobe closes or it won't close or the hook will break against the shelf.
Those hooks should be easily got in a DIY store or even the supermarket.
If it works let me know, send a photo and I'll post it!
