As the seasons change, refreshing your home decór helps create a seamless transition from one season to another, creating a living space that reflects a vibrant and lively atmosphere. By enhancing comfort and functionality, you can make your space more conducive to relaxation, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying the new season to the fullest.
Here are some home decór ideas that can help you have a nicely refreshed home and new home designs just in time for the end of summer and the beginning of the fall season.
Incorporate Natural Elements
Placing fresh flowers or potted plants in your home is a great way to bring nature into your space and freshen things up; sunflowers are a great option that showcases stunning color and can last the summer and even take you into the fall season. You can also tie the summer vibe together with the following:
- Fruit (especially green apples)
- Cotton stems
- Olive stems
- Green wreaths
Use Light and Airy Color Palettes
Whether you’re thinking about repainting your walls or sprucing up the decór, stick with light and airy color palettes. This helps cool off the space and brightens up the room, so, as you decorate, use white accessories, light-colored throw pillows, and other airy items to bring a breezy and fresh feel to the area.
Add Colorful Accent Pieces
As you use those white and light colors, picking a complementary color that pops out and brings the look together is important. You may use blue, yellow, or another playful color. When you decide, use this color for your accent pieces, like your throw pillows, rugs, or artwork.
Use Textures and Layers
Adding textures and layers to your walls adds depth and visual interest to your space, so explore your shiplap, wainscotting, and wood panel options to find the perfect look for the room.
Use Thoughtful Window Treatments
Using well-considered window treatments can maximize natural light and create an open feel to your home. So, switch out your dark curtains with white, almost-transparent curtains that create a breezy vibe. They’ll help things feel less gloomy as the days start getting shorter.
Refresh Your Bedding and Linens
Sometimes feeling refreshed can be as simple as changing your bedding and linens. It can shift the entire feel of your bedroom, so find the bedding you love (we recommend sticking to lighter colors) and use it to create a cozy and inviting bedroom.
