Integrity New Homes Cabramatta, has tips for updating a single room or your entire home for the summer. There are many things you can do, but here are 6 easy fixes.
Tip 1: Bring in Some Plants
A plant can spruce up your living space this summer. Plants are a great way to bring nature indoors. Plants look nice and can be used as decor, but they also have health benefits.
Research links houseplants to improved air quality, increased productivity, and reduced stress. Adding plants, flowers, and branches adds colour, texture, and beauty to any room.
There's something for everyone, from succulents to potted trees. Before buying, consider your living space. Before buying a plant, consider how much care it needs; some need more than others. Place them strategically so they become part of the decor while supplying oxygen.
Adding faux foliage brings life to any area without maintenance or upkeep if you don't have outdoor plant life.
Tip 2: Use fresh, neutral colours
Fresh colours can instantly energise a room. Bold colours add personality to drab rooms.
What colours cheer you?
Linen and white neutrals can also brighten a space. Whites and linens never date and make spaces look beautiful.
If you love colour but aren't sure which to choose, pick a few accent pieces. Pillows, rugs, art, and window treatments can change a room's ambiance. If you're feeling bold, try complementary paint tones and changing wall colour. Consider muted pastels for a softer look. Also trending.
Tip 3: Add Stripes for visual appeal.
Stripes add dimension and texture to a room without too many patterns or colours. Striped pillows, rugs, curtains, or wall coverings liven up any room. Mixing vertical and horizontal stripes creates visual depth and makes a space more interesting.
Tip 4: Buy some textured materials and accessories
Summer is a great time to freshen up your home with new décor, especially with all the Christmas sales at the end of November and start of December. Textiles are a quick way to update a room's look. Choose summery cushions or bright patterned throw pillows and blankets for the living room or bathroom. Accessories such as candles, earthen vessels, or platters with your shell collection or latest interest can add character and depth to different rooms in your home.
Tip 5: Clean up your windows
Taking care of the windows is one of the easiest ways to make a home look beautiful and the rooms feel more open and airier. Clean windows are a must!
Remove any window treatments or hardware that might prevent a deep clean. Don't forget the screens. Clean screens mean better airflow and cleaner air. Sometimes this requires removing them and scrubbing them with a hose and broom on the concrete, or if they aren't too dusty, a simple wipe down with a wet cloth will do. Check the instructions for cleaning curtains or blinds. Enjoy the product, even if the process is annoying ;)
Tip 6: Updated your alfresco and yard
Why not clean up your yard for summer activities and entertainment? Pressure washing the floor and walls brightens and cleans the space. If you're handy, a coat of paint could transform one of the walls or posts.
Bright pillows and fairy lights can transform a dull corner of your alfresco or yard. Put fairy lights in glass vases for outdoor dining or seating. Invest in a timer so you don't have to think about it; it will look great and make you feel festive every evening.
When styling for summer, mix styles and colours. Create a space that reflects your personality and makes you happy. Whether you make small changes or a complete renovation, these tips will make your home look great this summer.
Now that you know our top 6 summer décor tips, it's time to get started.
