Just as you revamp your wardrobe for warmer, brighter days, your home deserves a Summer makeover, too. Start with your living room. And don’t fret, there’s no need for a complete overhaul. A tweak here and there is enough to make you and your family feel the warm embrace of the summer season in your home.

Mix Neutrals with Wood Elements

Neutrals are the perfect shades to refresh the look of your living room and welcome summer guests. Match these shades with elements that can add warmth, such as a coffee table or a comfy chair with wooden legs. Play around with different types of wood and neutrals, and you’ll have the perfect mix for the hot season.

Put up a Summer Wall

Putting up a gallery wall is a simple project to give your living room a new vibe this summer. Pick photos or artwork with summer-inspired elements, such as the sea, nature, or tropical fruits. You can also go for those in a bright, cheerful palette of colors or punchy hues to make the gallery wall pop.

Go for Summer Fabric Prints

Got Pillow Covers with prints that feature exotic or tropical details like flamingos or pineapples? It’s time to bring them out of the closet and make them shine in your living room. You can mix them with sofa fabrics that are in happy, neutral colors like green, yellow, or orange to create a well put together living area.

Get That Boho Vibe

With a laid-back vibe, Bohemian style is another great idea for living room upgrades this summer, whether you’re in Los Angeles or Kansas City. Simply add floral paintings, eclectic blankets and throws, a hammock (if it’s possible), and colorful rugs to bring that cozy look in your home. But like what commercial cleaning experts always say, make sure to vacuum those rugs regularly to keep dust at bay.

Bring Nature into Your Home

Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors. You’ve probably been planning a trip to the sea or mountains with your family and friends this season. But even if you choose to simply stay at home for the rest of the warm season, you can still experience the beauty of nature by bringing it into your living room. Add plants to the living room, and complement your greenery with pops of blue, light green, or yellow accents to achieve that sunny vibe.

Pare it All Down

If adding or replacing decor doesn’t appeal to you, how about paring it all down? Remove a few pieces of furniture and store trinkets away to create more floor space in your living room. Also, keep the fabrics light and window treatments minimal to let the natural beauty of warm sunshine pour in from every angle.

Giving your living room a summer refresh can be as simple and inexpensive as changing pillow covers and removing a few trinkets from your coffee table. It’s all about channeling the fun and relaxation that this warm season brings — that’s what you and your kids should be focusing on this summer, after all.
