Depending on where you live in the US, you may be fortunate enough to experience plenty of sunshine and warm weather regularly throughout the year. Regardless, there are undoubtedly plenty of ways in which the warmth and brightness of summer can positively affect your mental well-being.

This is why embracing the summer season inside your home, as well as spending as much time as possible outdoors, is so important and here’s how to do just that through your home decor.

Replace Your Bedding

The duvet and blankets, as well as the pillows and cushions, are the main design feature of a bedroom, and as such, a great way to wake up with a summery mindset is to buy lighter and more aesthetically pleasing bed linen.

Floral patterns are always a great way of bringing more color into the room, or you could choose a plain bedspread in a lemon-yellow or duck-egg-blue and layer baby-pink pillows or throws over the top.

Decorate Your Dining Table

Whether you love hosting dinner parties or you usually choose to eat your evening meal on the comfort of the couch, a well-set dining table is truly a mark of an organized home.

Take a look at the incredibly impressive range of striking dinner bowls and other dinnerware online to choose summery patterns and designs, either individually for a vintage, mix-and-match look, or else a uniformly identical dining set.

Indoor Plants

Indoor plants, more specifically those flowers that are symbolic of the summer months, are a fantastic addition to a bedroom of any shape and size; just be sure to choose the right plants which will flourish in such a setting. Affordable and beautiful plants that are perfect for your new summery bedroom include the following:

  • Parlor palm
  • Ferns
  • Fiddle-leaf fig
  • Anthurium
  • Snake plant
  • Areca palm
  • Peace lily
  • Rubber plant
  • Aloe vera

There are a huge range of benefits linked to bringing indoor plants into your bedroom, including fresher and cleaner air, a more relaxed and tranquil sleep, and a more earthy and natural ambience to the space.

Spring Clean Your Drapes

Heavy and thick drapes are fantastic for keeping the warmth inside your living room during the winter months, and what’s more, it will probably save you money on your energy bills.

However, when the end of spring is nigh, have your winter drapes professionally cleaned and store them away, before choosing to hang breezy, thinner drapes in fresh white instead. This will add a summery aesthetic and allow you to have the windows open to let clean air into the home while keeping those pesky flies and moths out.

Treat Yourself To Some Sweet-Smelling Candles

Finally, candles, wax melts, and oil burners now come in a seemingly endless array of different colors, patterns, shapes, and sizes, and a sweet-smelling candle is the perfect finishing touch to your home’s decor.

From rich raspberry and blackberry or cherry and vanilla, to oaky barbecue scents, treat yourself to some candles and position them throughout your home to really bring a sense of summer inside your property.
