i travel a lot for work and for about 3 months i stayed in a bed & breakfast at a lovely lady's home, i cannot stress how amazing the coffee & tea station was. The endless amount of flavours and little chalkboard signs she had for jams and treats was so inviting. Its definitely something I want to have in my own house one day. She also provided robes and moisturisers & would leave the heater on and turn on fairy lights just before I got home from work (lived in minus degree weather) so these little things made such a big difference. I preferred it so much more to any hotel.
Your videos signal “relaxation” to me when I see them in my subscription feed! Even if the subject is related to productivity, I get so excited to grab a cup of tea and let myself totally relax while watching your content. 💗
I believe you and your husband would make the best bed and breakfast owners! With him being an amazing cook, and you being a welcoming and refreshing decorator, your guests would truly feel comfortable and loved. Something to think about ❤️
A most friendly tip for those trying the baking soda carpet freshener: consider a mask and/or opening windows and getting plenty of ventilation while vacuuming it up. It is sodium after all and is known to cause significant blood pressure spikes when inhaled- the vacuum kicks it up into the air. I'm healthy and without hypertension and even I have experienced a pounding heart when vacuuming baking soda. I've had numerous others tell me the same. However, it really does an excellent job of freshening your rugs and carpets! For rugs you can at least take them outdoors to minimize your exposure. Good to know for those with sensitivities or hypertension. xox ❤ Thank you for another tremendously helpful video Rachel! Your editing and quality are beautiful!!
Today I'm doing my annual guest prep checklist video.. I love making videos on different ways to treat guests. I know it's not realistic for everyone to do all of this. The holidays can definitely be nuts and I totally get that.. For me it's a bit different every year based on my schedule and what's happening, but I always try to do a little something. Here's a compilation of some of my favorite ideas. I hope one or two of these tips can give you an idea or two for treating your guest a little extra special this holiday season.
I decorated early this year because of all the inspiration you have gifted us! Our little cottage is very bright and white-- this year, we filled it with succulents, garland, and it feels so fresh and clean! Thanks for showing us such beautiful tips for the holidays!
This time of year you see a ton of videos about Grove. This is the only video I’ve seen so far where the creator says “free gift with purchase” instead of letting you believe that it’s free without purchasing anything. I really appreciate the honesty💕 I’ve been watching Rachel’s videos for like 4 years now and I absolutely adore her💕
Thank you for working on reducing waste in your household. It made me so happy when you have a great following and sharing what really matters. We really need to work on how much waste we create.
You are so considerate of friends/family & I love that about you, reminds me of me . Would go above & beyond for people 💗 I wish I would meet more people like you !!
I really hope that you and family are in a safe place. It's so heartbreaking to see the images of the wildfires. Hope things improve soon. Thanks for the vid too... that's something positive we need so much these days in this mad world, txs Rachel 💕
I can’t wait till I can host my beautiful family and friends in my home with my husband a year from now. I’ll definitely come back to this 🙏🏽. Thank you
You're such an inspiration. It's so kind to not just do the basic stuff than a guest comes over but to be more mindful about what they may need. Will definitively do some of the stuff you suggest once I live alone and my family visits :)
It doesnt matter what your videos are about, they are always so relaxing lol. You could literally make a video about disarming a bomb and it would be the most relaxing video.
I have been watching your videos for 3 years now. So much inspiration and a lot of DIY I pick it up myself. My first idea from you was a guest room you made a video a while ago. My mother in law was so surprised for the gifts and thoughts. Thank you for that.
I am becoming so addicted to your vdios Rachel. I am returing to work next month from my maternity leave. Being a doc I am ususally addicted to books n patients. but u showed how I can manage my home as well. Inspired for a balanced life. Loves from Asia.
I absolutely love your guest gift idea, it's so practical. I swear by having a coffee station, everyone just helps themselves & it takes a little pressure off you. Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
I love your videos. You are perfect! I also just love how you get to the point you don’t do these long intro videos and talk forever on what you’re going to do you get straight to the point. ♥️
Thank you for this video! Making guests feel at home is such a nice thing :) I LOVED that you are using more sustainable options in this video! Especially the little silicone tubes for shampoo and showergel instead of using travel size plastic bottles
Hey Rachel, one thing I like to include in my guest room prep is a bottle of water on each night stand. I find that guests will often come roaming into the kitchen once they are settled looking for a glass of water to take medications with. Plus, no one seems to drink enough when traveling. I have also put them on a tray on the bathroom counter.
You inspire me so much! I love your videos and your lifestyle. I’ve recently tried to become healthier and more mindful of waste. I’m striving to live a healthier ,stress-free, and clutter-free life! The motivation that I get when watching your videos is astounding! Also, the way you speak is very welcoming I feel as though we are friends and you are giving me personal tips!
Even if you post during the day I always save the video for when I go to sleep because you're voice is sooo calm, haha. It's nice to have a youtuber with calm and 'silent' videos, without anyone crying/shouting/jumping from here to there. 🤣
What a wonderful host you are ❤️ It’s lovely to see the love, care and respect you have for your guests and the little touches you add to make them feel welcome. Really enjoyed this video ❤️
Hi you totally inspired me to start cleaning up today, I am expecting a large number of guests today and I was overwhelmed. Can you please make a video on how you organize your kitchen and your wardrobe. Love your work!
Dear Rachel, you are really inspiring. Thanks you so much for sharing with such a thoughtful mind. I have watched you grown over the years and I am now loving such great accomplishment. I wish you nothing but the best to you four! All the best. Marianne (Hug from Luxembourg)
I absolutely love this. Hosting guests is something I have always loved - although with my current living situation, it's not as easy. Can't wait to be in a home where I can have guests again, and I'll definitely be coming back to this video for tips!
I get lost in your videos with your beautiful home. I'm 25 and live with 3 boys and it's impossible to keep a cute, clean home. One day! But for now I live vicariously through you! 😊😊
Your videos are so satisfying... especially this one ☝️ just love to watch them ❤️❤️❤️ I’m amazed to see that you take so much care of your guests ........
I absolutely love seeing the Grove stuff you put out! I have a lot of those products and it makes me smile to see them in your home too. I started laughing when you hung up the spices towel. How many of our homes have the same stuff from Grove? Goes to show everyone's good taste. ;)
I would love to see a detailed cleaning video, maybe where you detail window tracks or polish your copper utensil holder? I don't know why but I swear its like asmr to watch cleaning videos
This video last year was what made me subscribe. I’m obsessed with your guest prep videos😩 it makes me so excited to own a home sometime in the future!
Why are your videos so awesome!! I love this! I want to cone stay at your house. It looks so warm and inviting. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
I have family flying out to visit me for thanksgiving, so thank you for all these great tips. Definitely going to implement a some of them. Sending lots of love to you and the family! ❤️
This video is so relaxing to watch! Thank you for the wonderful tips, you are so thoughtful for your guests, definitely inspiring!💕 lots of love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Beautiful!! I love your compassion and really want your guests to feel comfortable and at home❤️❤️ You are honestly my IDOL🙌🏼🙌🏼 Keep creating amazing content plzzzz😍😍
I have friends coming in to my house, I wasn’t sure what I can do make them comfortable.... very helpful video for me💖... Loved the way you explained clearly and video and your voice was very pleasant .... usually I don’t write comments but could resist to appreciate/thank you...👍😊
What carpeted room other than a guest room would you not let a pet in? Also I love how much you care. When we have guest all we do is put clean stuff and make sure we have water.
The guest room is the only room off limits to the pets. The cat is not allowed in the boys rooms because of asthma. Our cat is a rescue, and a mix between two breeds, one of which is hypoallergenic, so she is less triggering than most cats to my husband and kids allergies.

Pia S that sounds amazing! What was the name of the bed and breakfast and where is it located? I would love to go someday!
@@TheAlicesense it was down in Gore this small town in the South of New Zealand, lovely lady named Carole
You would make the most perfect Airbnb host lol
True 😂😂😂

She does have a relaxing vibe!
@@samanthab3292 yeh exactly that's what I wanted to write
That's such a good description! I feel the same way 😊
Same 😂💕

Can I be a guest at your home forever lol 🤪
Hahaha true it's so inviting
Omg same :(
You’re like the organising and decorating queen 👑👍🏻
You are the best host! If anyone comes to stay at my home I say "make yourself at home" haha no pleasantries here! ... I need to work on that! lol
"Make yourself at home" is the perfect kind of attitude. Guests appreciate that. =)
Will I do this? No. Do I still love watching this? Absolutely yes. 😂
It’s the simplicity and attention to detail that make it so special for your guests. You have a way of making it feel so zen, comfy and cozy.
I love the way you make sponsored videos. So genuine and not tacky like most. Thanks for sharing.
Your home is so welcoming and warm, the attention to detail is amazing.
Thank you for working on reducing waste in your household. It made me so happy when you have a great following and sharing what really matters. We really need to work on how much waste we create.
Matching dispenser and kitchen towel. I really like that.
I have 2 boys, and 2 dogs and I smiled because I use the baking soda and essential oil blend at home as well. It's a trick that really works
I looovvvee your videos. They are so warm and inviting. Really authentic and comforting to watch. Tfs.
You are so considerate of friends/family & I love that about you, reminds me of me . Would go above & beyond for people 💗 I wish I would meet more people like you !!
