11 Quotes to Welcome Guests Into Your Home

Is there anything better than gathering at home on a cold winter night with family and friends? As the weather gets cooler, we dream of cozy evenings at home with a fire in the fireplace, a delicious meal on the table, and friends gathered around the table telling stories and laughing together. It makes our hearts warm just thinking about it!


We love to entertain those we care about, so we’ve picked up a few tips through the years for making our home feel super welcoming and setting everyone at ease. The main things we’ve learned is that it’s all about the experience. It doesn’t matter if your house is immaculately clean (ours rarely is!) or perfectly decorated. 


What makes the atmosphere feel homey is if you engage the senses! Burn a candle or put a pan of brownies in the oven so your house smells amazing. Set out some soft, plush blankets around the living room and fluff your throw pillows. Turn on some relaxing music. If it’s a dinner party, you can’t go wrong with comforting, nostalgic foods. Ask good questions or have some conversation topics ready (we love these cards for ideas!). Trust us when we say your guests won’t even notice some toys that are out or a pile of laundry that needs to be washed if you create a place where they can feel relaxed and forget their stresses! 


The same principles apply anytime of year, but we find there’s something particularly satisfying and comforting about having people over this time of year!
