Full of endless fun, adventure galore, vacationing, and most importantly warm weather, summer is considered by many as their favorite time of the year. Summer, just like any season does not last long as it only stays for about three months. But that does not mean you let go of being a beach bum because you can easily incorporate it in your very own space, your house.

There are many types of design to choose from when it comes to our home style. Traditional interior, contemporary, industrial, rustic, and modern, but why not include a summer vibe. If you are the kind of person who can’t get enough of the leisure season, then redecorating your space that gives off the vibes can be worth it.

Here are some tips to keep your room sunny, beachy, wavy and tropical just like the summer vibe.

Splash of Color

Although the trend has been going neutral, if you are after that a summer dream you need to put color into your house. Pops of color needs to be installed in your fixtures and furniture in order to match the season we are after. There are no set of colors that strictly defines summer season, but it needs to be bright, fun and eye-catching. The color that best defines summer though are:

• Green
• Yellow
• Red
• Orange
• Pink

Bring In The Outdoor

When you think of summer, what particular activity comes first in your mind? The beach right? And what is abundant in the beach? Yep, the sand. Nothing makes a statement that you have an official summer getaway that the feel of the sand touching the soles of your feet. And if you want to put summer in your house, you need to bring some sand in.

I am not talking about changing with your carpet or wooden floors, rather you can put sand in a jar and place it somewhere as a centerpiece. It could be in your coffee table, in your room or in the bathroom. For sure everything you get a glimpse of it, you will be reminded with the ocean breeze.

Sense of Smell

Designing and decorating is not always about the sense of sight, the sense of smell is as important as it can set the tone and vibe of a room. For summer enthusiast you need to think of scent that reminds you of the activities, moments and events that closely relates to the season. Some air fresheners have marketed themselves with things like ocean breeze and what not, but they don’t feel natural and authentic.

I urge you to create your own natural room spray. It is as simple as mixing lemon balm, lime juice, lavender oil, coconut extract and maybe pineapple. Place them somewhere where they can spread the pleasant odor and slowly make your living space feeling and smelling like summer.

Furniture and Decor

Your furniture and decor are the main contributors to the atmosphere of your house or room. And so, it is important to keep these things looking and feeling like you are in a vacation. Woven items are the best thing to install and place in your room if you want to incorporate the summer feels. They add the texture that you need to achieve the outdoor vibe and they look cool, breezy and natural – just like summer.

Flower Power

Summer is the time when most flower blooms and so they can easily be associated with the season. Place flowers in your room to add a pop of color, enjoy its beautiful fragrance and invite the summer vibe. If you find tending to a living plant difficult and a hassle, you can easily still incorporate it with design.

Floral patterns are available in many household items, and the easiest would be pillow cases. Make sure that the flower pattern design you are going to add shows fun, bright and happy color, so that even though they are not real nor do they give off scent at least they look fresh.
