Finally, to keep everything clean and organized, I bought an enormous plastic bin and packed everything in it. I shopped sales, but even so, everything added up. Because I don’t shop frequently, it was worth it to me to get it all done at once. If you have extra linens, you may need only to shop your own linen closet, organize everything and purchase a large container. If your family can be trusted, you may even be able to get away with placing everything on a higher shelf. For our family this is the perfect solution to keep everything we need close at hand and clean and secure.Now I can’t wait for our next guests.Your turn: What have you found to help make hosting a breeze?More: How to Add a Murphy Bed

“Right then I thought of creating a guest room in a box and got to it.” — Alison HodgsonTired of losing designated guest linens to dog beds and other uses around the house, Hodgson decided to take control and keep them corralled in a designated bin. Said bin will be pulled out and opened only for guests. She started fresh, picking up new sheets, towels, washcloths, pillows and a coverlet and keeping them in a designated spot. You can emulate this idea by shopping your own linen closet and filling in any missing pieces. Full story: Genius Home Prep: A Guest Room in a Box
