How to open a B&B of your own in one day?
Xiaoyi has wanted to have his own store since he was a child. It is not big but full of his own personality. I have dreamed of opening an inn, a coffee shop, a clothing store, and a grocery store, but I have never implemented it. If you are like me, you might as well take a look at this renovation case~
Before the renovation
This time we found our customer who renovated the B&B - Lisa, she is like us The same 9-to-5 office worker is also the boss of his own small business, fulfilling the dream that many of us want but have not realized.
The single room Lisa rented is located in Xinzhou. There are 14 rooms in the apartment. It is a three-minute walk to Shawei Subway Station. Security is on duty 24 hours a day, making life and travel very convenient and safe.
The original appearance of the house was very messy. To be honest, would you be willing to live in such an environment? My heart refuses. Fortunately, after the previous tenant's contract expired, all the furniture was moved and emptied.
The focus and difficulty of this renovation is the wall with the golden wallpaper in the house. The original landlord said that it was a specially built Feng Shui wall and must not be moved. So the style of this renovation was basically finalized in this way, without all kinds of freshness, and turned into a unique American mix and match style.
When the renovation is in progress
After setting the budget and measuring the room type, it is time to make the floor plan and purchase plan~
After all the purchased items are in place, That’s one and a half days of construction time. Paint walls, lay floors, install chandeliers, assemble large pieces of furniture, etc.
The whole house has a purchasing budget of 6.7K, ranging from bed frames and mattresses to slippers and water bottles, and nearly 40 items, all of which are considered and completed on the day of decoration, including pillow cores, The quilt cores were all set, so there was no need to worry about anything. Lisa hung up the B&B platform to receive guests on the second day of acceptance.
After renovation
We made a simple entrance hall, where you can easily hang your coats and bags at the entrance. For short-term rental apartments, a four-story shoe rack is more than enough. .
We have chosen warm lights for the lighting in the whole house. The pattern of the chandelier we chose will be reflected as soon as it is turned on, creating a charming atmosphere.
The black simple iron bed is paired with a four-piece set of 80-count pure cotton. There is also a desk lamp on the bedside table, so you don’t have to worry about turning off the lights and going back to bed in the dark.
To the left of the bed is the main storage area of the room. The storage boxes on the shelves store various sundries, and the coat rack below can be used to hang clothes for short trips. Because there is a separate washing machine in the B&B, a dirty clothes basket is specially set up next to the coat rack. The smaller the room, the more careful planning is required to keep it organized.
A small leisure area is set up on the other side of the bed, with a bright yellow tiger chair and a floor lamp. On a tiring night, make yourself a cup of warm tea and read a book about yourself. Your favorite portable book, or turn on the TV and tune in to your favorite TV station to relax your tense nerves.
Most people in this world are bored. In order to make a living, they mix in all walks of life and "pretend" to do a job.
If you also have the dream of opening a B&B, it is better to be like Lisa and realize it with actual actions instead of just thinking about it.
