Once the days start to warm up and you can leave your windows open at night, the time has come to give your home a summer make-over. Everything has been stuck inside your home all winter and the time has come to air it out. Also, you’ll want your space to have that summery feel without costing you a great deal of money. Here are some basic tips to give your home a new look for summer.
Summer Hues
Summer is exceptionally colorful because of the fact that the sky is deep blue, the leaves are green on every one of the trees and wildflowers grow wherever they can. Blooms and blossoms are colorful and also fragrant. There are several unique colors to select from when you do your browsing. If you love the colors of blueberries or strawberries or a specific color of flower, then make use of this color by incorporating it somewhere.
Windows
You need to let as much sunlight as you can into your home. The sun will enliven your day and capture that summer feel. You definitely don’t want to leave your heavy winter blinds up for the summer. You need sheer drapes on your windows or you can select panels in summer colors, like blue or yellow. If you are uncertain about the color of your drapes or you can’t seem to get the best coordinate with the color you picked, then you should probably make use of white for your window coverings. White is perfect for summertime drapery.
Floors
Your floors also have to reflect the color of summer. You don’t need to overdo it with patterns since you will get that from your wall decor. You can make use of white rugs in several different places in your home. Place large rugs in places like the center of your living room or under the dining room table. Also, you can put area rugs anyplace you want to highlight.
Walls
In the event that your walls are already sporting a summer color, then you don’t have to stress over changing it up unless you simply want that fresh coat of paint everyone loves. You can select the colors white, green, blue, or yellow – but don’t be shy with your palette. Hang pictures of the flowers in season on the wall. If you do not have any pictures, step outside with your camera and snap some of your own.
You can highlight one wall in your home by using an accent color. Not a paint pro? No sweat. That’s where we come in. We paint Nashville homes whether exterior or interior.
