5 Simple Ways to Lighten up Your Decor for Summer Time
As summer quickly approaches, it’s time to start thinking about giving your home a lighter, brighter look for the warm months ahead. Get rid of the winter blahs and let the sun shine in!
Here are a few ideas to get you going:
Bedrooms – take off that heavy comforter and cover your bed in a light cotton coverlet in your favorite color or white. Lighter colors for summer will make your bedroom feel cool and comfortable.
Window Treatments – give the heavy velvet curtains a break – take them to the cleaners and store them away until cooler temps return. Hang light linens, cottons or canvass materials for a great summer look.
Rugs – in days of old, the rugs came off the floors for the summer time so you could feel the coolness of the wood or stone floors. Not such a bad idea, but even a change can make a difference. In your sunroom for sure, you can take the rug away and add a light cotton rug or leave the floors bare.
Living Room – make simple changes like changing out your sofa pillows. Get that heavy throw cleaned and stored away. Change out the curtains for a lighter, breezier look for summer. Finally, redo whatever you have on your coffee table. Add a bright coffee table book with beach scenes or flowers of summer to brighten up your living room space.
Dining Rooms – Add a beautiful vase to your dining room table and keep it filled with fresh, colorful flowers from your garden or nursery. Replace heavier placemats with rattan, wicker, or bright colors to match your décor.
