Bring the outdoors in

Summertime is all about enjoying outdoors, so why not bring it indoors. Fill up some vases with your favorite flowers or consider potted indoor plants. If you are not up for buying cut flowers, you can fill glass containers with rocks or sea shells.

Color makeover

Switching colors is  a great way to update your home décor. If you don’t want to paint the walls, give your home a color makeover by replacing some accessories. Pick your favorite theme or color for the season, and let the idea run through everything you purchase. For instance, white and blue are the classic colors of the season. White slipcovers, with sky blue pillows and rugs are always a hit. Invest in nice accent pillows and then keep changing their covers from season to season.

Rearrange furniture

This is perhaps one of the easiest ways to update your home décor. Move seating pieces away from fireplaces and arrange them closer to the windows. But make sure to leave enough space around the furniture so that everyone can walk around comfortably. Simply by creating enough walking space you will open up the room visually, giving it an airy look. You can also swap furniture pieces from one room to another.
