10 Christmas bedding essentials for a cozy guest room — up to 75% off at Wayfair's Black Friday sale
Hosting for the holidays should be an Olympic sport. Not only are you juggling the responsibilities of the main event — that is, whipping up a delicious multi-course meal for more people than you usually cook for — but in many cases you're also in charge of giving some of the guests a place to sleep at night. To get through it all you'll need a well-stocked fridge, enough decor to make your home look like a Hallmark Christmas movie, and a cozy guest bedding that'll lull them to sleep with visions of sugar-plums dancing in their heads.
And no one knows how to do a festive guest room better than Wayfair. With Christmas only a few weeks away, the home decor retailer is pulling out all the stops to help you create dreamy Christmas bedrooms to rival those at the North Pole. Whether you're hosting older relatives, young kiddos or will just be celebrating solo this season, it's as good a time as any to take stock of the Christmas bedding that'll make the holidays feel extra special. The best part — all of our picks are discounted during Wayfair's Black Friday sale.
From flannel Christmas sheets and patchwork quilts to throw pillows that look like candy, you'll find everything you need from Wayfair to create a cozy bedroom Mrs. Claus might envy.
