One of our recent projects has been making our extra bedrooms into a true guest rooms: places where guests can rest comfortably and really feel at home when visiting.  Along with changing the bedding, making headboards and adding in art and extra furniture, I wanted to make it easy for guests to find things they might be looking for {i.e. items they might have forgotten}.

It started with a little basket of items that guest might have forgotten similar to the way hotels put out small toiletries.

Then, I started thinking about little extras that might nice for guests to find.  I added a water carafe and glass along with an alarm clock.  My mom is a HUGE sweets fan though so I wanted to add some small snacks too.  Knowing my dad would typically be traveling with her, though, I wanted to ensure the candy was diabetic friendly so he could enjoy a sweet treat too.
That’s when I discovered Werther”s Sugar Free candies.

The candies come in a bunch of yummy flavors beyond the traditional caramel and I bet my dad is going to like the caramel apple.  Plus, they are perfect for diabetics because they are low in sugar and carbohydrates.  I liked Werther’s Sugar Free on Facebook because it is a great way to keep up with when new flavors are released or when the brand offers coupons.

I added the candies to the little glass jar and then covered it in burlap and ribbon to match the decor of the guest room.  Then, I added it to the little dresser in the guest room next to my basket of toiletries.

Now, my guest room is ready for its most frequent visitors: mom and dad!  Hope they like the addition of the little candies!
