I love Summer... and I love Summer Home Decor! Here are some easy peasy summer decor tips everyone should do!
Rethink your home decor and get inspired by the bright, sunny colors of summer. Designing for summer is simple - the use of natural elements is what will make this decor easy both for indoors and outdoors. (We will touch on outdoor decor on the next blog post.)
Choose from a tropical design filled with lots of vivid colors or a coastal/nautical design that incorporates beach-themed items like seashells, sand and starfish.
- Add tropical punches with throw pillows in bright colors.
- Use bright colors like bright orange, sunshiny yellow and aqua blues in your home to spice up the dark colors from your winter decor. (Read more about how to design with brights.)
- Buy a small outdoor bench and bring it in the home. Decorate with lots of pillows and bright throws to bring the look together.
- Change your area rug to one with an outdoor feel, flowers or palm trees work best.
- Fill vases with sand, seashells and anything from the sea. Collect it from your actual beach or buy it from stores like Michaels or Joann's.
- Hang decorative signs that remind you of beach and summer days.
- Keep fresh white flowers - poppies or your choice of flowers and change them out every week to bring the smell of the outdoors in.
- Try eco-friendly materials like bamboo and hemp for a more rustic coastal feel.
Tips:
- Incorporate vacation finds into the overall decor pieces
- Switch out your coffee table for a few ottomans in different vivid colors
- Add a sun inspired wall art or mirror to the entryway or foyer of your home.
- Bring the outdoors in. Bring your favorite piece of outdoor furniture indoors. I would suggest a small side table.
- Buy some summer scents. Bath and Body have an array of summer scents. Some of them really smell like the beach. (See picture below!)
- Accessorize, Accessorize, Accesorize! ..With seasonal design, most of your decor will come from small items, like pillows, clocks, throws and small pieces of furniture like ottomans and side tables.
- Most importantly, smile when you come in the door..it's SUMMER....!!!!
