Home Decorating Tips For Summer
The season of bright colors and warm weather is finally here! Although you may not be going off to a beach house, you can surely transform your home to make it feel like a vacation every day! Summer is the perfect time to bring in new decor and vibrant accents that make your home pop. Take your house to the next level by implementing the following decorating tips in your home!
White Colors and Light-Colored Accents
White is a fresh, simple color that brings out summer vibes. Light-colored accents, such as beige, or a light gray can be added to enhance the brightness of your home. White-painted walls, cabinets, and countertops add a subtle, yet elegant look to your summer home. The goal is to bring in as much light as possible.

Add Energizing Accent Colors
Whether you want to make your entire house colorful, or just want cheerful accents, adding a pop of color to your home is what summer is about. We suggest adding colorful throw pillows to your lounge areas to make it both fun and inviting. Fresh and radiant flowers are a beautiful addition to the kitchen area and small tables. Adding vibrant paintings and dishes is a plus to transforming your new summer home.
Swap Out Your Bedding
Out with the old, in with the new! It’s time to rid of your heavy, winter bedding and replace it with a lighter duvet. Linen bedding is perfect for a lightweight, breezy sleep. It gives the perfect feeling of being in a vacation home.
Get Fun Patio Furniture
Nothing says summer like sitting outside on your porch. Gather your patio furniture, throw some colorful accent pillows, and you’re ready for relaxing summer nights. You can enhance your patio furniture with neutral tones and a pop of color. Piling vibrant pillows on one another creates a more cozy summer environment.
Add Flowy Curtains
Looking for more of a beach house vibe? Add flowy, lightweight curtains to the interior and exterior of your home to create a summer breeze like no other. Create your own at-home oasis!
Citrus and Fruit Decor
Decorating your home with citrus fruits is the perfect addition to a summer home. Not only does it add an extra pop of vibrance, but it also gives your home a fresh scent that resonates with the warm weather!
Hang Ceiling Fans
A small, yet perfect addition to building your summer home is adding new ceiling fans, especially in hot areas around the house. It’s a great inclusion to the patio and interior living space.
Put up a Summer Wreath
When thinking about the exterior design, a summer wreath will enhance the look of your home. Lemon-inspired wreaths or simple, colorful flower wreaths are popular picks!
Summer Rugs, Scents & Lamp Shades
A few last additions that may seem minor, but make a huge difference. Indoor and Outdoor rugs enhance the entire feel of a space, and it’s crucial to have a radiant, cheerful rug for summer. Lamps and lampshades are accents to a larger room that bring the summer feel to live. If you’re looking for that fresh summer scent, look into fresh, citrus-smelling candles that will make your home both relaxing and refreshing.
