No matter the time of year, it’s always warm and welcoming to make a home feel like a summer retreat. Some minor updates can brighten your place without making too much fuss: adding vibrant fabrics, accent pieces, and greenery.
1. Bring The Outdoors Inside
Several indoor and outdoor plants work well together to bring life into any room. When looking for planters, try ones that can be used in both settings, such as lemon trees, which are easy to maintain and make great additions throughout the summer months.
2. Move Lighting
An excellent way to change the ambiance of your home without breaking the bank is by moving lamps from one room to another. This way, you’ll be able to easily create a different mood in each space without leaving them feeling cold and empty.
3. Consider Changing Your Accent Seasonally
Changing your decor to reflect the changing seasons is an easy way to freshen up your space. Swap out accent pieces throughout the year by using a variety of planters at different times, switching winter throws for summer ones, and swapping pillows for added warmth or brightness depending on what time of year it is.
4. In Most Homes, It is Desirable to Include a Banquette
A banquette makes a perfect addition to any corner or nook and can be used to effortlessly update a bay window, turning it into the perfect spot for gatherings.
5. Add Hues and Shades
Painting walls in a bold color adds punch to the room. Get some pillows with bright colors and prints if you want something smaller and cheaper! You can also add wallpaper to a bank of shelves or cabinets for added depth.
6. Don’t Forget the Ceiling
Adding wallpaper, texture, or color to ceilings is an easy way to brighten and refresh your room for a fraction of the cost. You can choose from brighter colors for spaces that need illumination or darker colors for warmth.
7. Add Accent Tables to The Mix
A wide variety of accent tables in different shapes and sizes for indoor or outdoor use are available – colorful, fun tables that can be mixed and matched inside a room or outside.
