With summer just a few days away, it’s a good opportunity to upgrade your space with new décor for this warmer time of year. Summer decoration means delicate fabrics, vivid colors and decorations reminiscent of the sun and the see. You do not need to change the whole decor, but a few small changes may be all you need to bring summer into your living room. Let’s see a few ideas to turn your space into a summer paradise.
1. Reduce the decorative pieces
Sometimes what you need to bring the summer into your living room is just to reduce the decorations. Remove pieces that darken the space, pull the curtains and let your space “breathe”.
2. Floral, tropical or marine decoration style
These are the three most characteristic summer decoration styles. You can choose one of them or take inspiration from all three. Maybe you like a sofa cover with a floral pattern. Or you may want to add various decorations that will make your space look like a seaside house. These can be shells and pebbles in transparent jars or anything else reminiscent of the sea and the sun.
3. Be bold with colour
Summer decor means vivid and bright colours! There are many ways to add colour to your space. A coloured tableware or a bowl of summer fruits. Decorative pieces or pillows in various colours and designs. Do not hesitate to experiment with different colours.
4. Large pillows on the floor
An essential element of casual summer decoration. Lay large and comfortable pillows in monochrome or with impressive patterns around your coffee table.
5. More plants
A surefire way to bring summer to your living room is to add a variety of plants and flowers. Put plants in large pots on the floor, but also small plants on the table. Cacti are very easy to care for and are sure to give a summery vibe to your coffee table.
6. Summer carpets and covers
Fine fabrics, such as linen and cotton, are ideal for your sofas in summer. And summer covers in combination with a summer carpet, can transform your space in an instant. For example, a rug can help you achieve a summer beach house style.
7. Aromatic candles
Last but not least, candles with a summer scent can perfectly complement your summery atmosphere. An “ocean” or “cucumber-melon” scented candle could be ideal for your living room.
