Entertaining overnight guests and have nowhere to put them? The “Stay at My Home” kit is touted as “a series of objects for the good host” and is perfect for these situations. The clever and compact kit offers a comfortable mattress that can be rolled up and stowed in the side table unit. The unit contains a drawer, which holds a cover, pillow and bedside lamp/torch.
When the contents are removed for use, the table provides storage for the guest’s belongings. The arrow-shaped carpet adds a certain charm in that it can point the way to an invitation to stay. No more rummaging in the back closet for linens and sleeping bags for unexpected guests--just leave this stylish little number out as part of your permanent decor.
