ADD POPS OF COLOR
Replace your contemporary subtle paintings with some colorful art that pops. Place fresh flowers or vibrant colored accent pieces around your condo. Change out any dull or neutral colored throw pillows with fun colored and funky patterned ones.
BRING FURNITURE OUTDOORS
With the nicer warmer weather, you'll want to spend as much time outdoors as possible. Utilize your deck space as a secondary dining area, reading nook, or relaxation spot for those sunny beautiful days to come. You'll want to take full advantage of the time you have to spend outside, rain or shine.
PAINT YOUR FURNISHINGS
If you've got some older furnishings that are looking dull and lifeless, revamp them with a fresh coat of paint that enhances your summer fun theme. You can choose a couple of pieces to paint vibrant colors to stand out and be focal points, and tie in the look with some complimenting throw pillows.
INVITE LIGHT INTO THE ROOM
Make your home seem brighter and more inviting by improving the lighting. Change out the window treatments for lighter colored ones, and allow natural light into your home. Use lighter colored furnishings instead of darker colors. Upgrade your lighting fixtures and add some accent lighting.ENJOY THE SCENTS OF SUMMER
For a continuous seasonal aesthetic in your home, switch out scents as the seasons change. Gingerbread and evergreen are great smells for winter months, but in the summer many people crave fresh scents, such as ocean breeze or cucumber-melon.
REARRANGE FOR A NEW VIEW
While a fireplace is a great focal point, consider rearranging your furniture away from it during the summer. Rather than huddling around the hearth, shift the focus of the room toward a beautiful window or French doors. Stow away heavy draperies and hang gossamer sheers that flow with the breezes.
FILL YOUR FIREPLACE
You won't be cozying up around the fireplace for another few months. For now, use your fireplace as a fun way to bring the summer indoors. Remove the fire logs and stage a vibrant planter in its place. Stack the pile of unused wood inside the fireplace to free up mantel space and create a cool rustic look. Decorate the mantel with fun summer-time decor.
