Is your home ready for summer? If you love swapping out decor for the seasons like we do, you’re likely already on the hunt for summer finds. To help you transform your space into a summer haven, we put together a list of simple and budget-friendly decorating tips (plus product recommendations!).

Keep reading to learn our five tips for flawless summer decorating.

1. Bring the Outdoors In

Connect with the season by bringing a little bit of the outdoors in. Decorate your space with fresh flowers to add vibrant color and a refreshing scent. For a low-maintenance option, try faux greenery. We love these faux eucalyptus stems from Amazon for decorating vases and tablescapes—they provide a natural look without the upkeep!
 

2. Layer Natural Textures

Add an organic touch and instant summer vibes to your home with woven baskets, seagrass rugs, and jute placemats. You can add these natural textures to your walls and furniture as well—consider woven wall hangings or furniture made from rattan or bamboo. By layering these elements, you’ll create a space that is both inviting and effortlessly stylish.
 

3. Lighten Up!

Keep your home breezy and relaxed by swapping out heavy curtains and throws for light, breathable fabrics like linen and cotton. These materials can cool your home while enhancing the airy, summer atmosphere. Sheer curtains let in plenty of natural light, making your space feel open and bright. These linen curtains filter summer sunlight beautifully!

4. Color Your Space with Summer Accents

Summer is the perfect time to experiment with vibrant colors and playful patterns. Brighten your space with throw pillows in sunny citrus hues or add turquoise accents for a coastal feel. Enhance your decor with coffee table books showcasing summer photography or fashion. We love this coffee table book featuring a collection of gorgeous beach photos! 
 

5. Infuse Summery Scents

Sometimes the little things make the biggest difference, and scent can easily level up your space. Candles, diffusers, and essential oils in citrus, lavender, and eucalyptus aromas invigorate your space. For a natural touch, simmer a pot of lemon slices and herbs on the stove for a refreshing, homemade air freshener!

I love decorating my home for summer. I love changing out my throw pillows on my living room sofa. I have themes for Black History Month, Pillows of beautiful birds, and fun pillow shapes like the sun. I love my pillows.

We don't really decorate for summer other than putting flowers in pot on our balcony.

I try to lighten things up so I can stay cool, but also use energy efficient or sun blocking curtains to keep the heat out.

I haven't decorated specifically for summer in a few years. Most of the time now I just buy a few new colorful items and replace older things that no longer look amazing to me.

I'm currently downsizing, and moving into a beach cottage kind of aesthetic.

I absolutely love to decorate with sunflowers and watering cans. It reminds me of being outdoors and in the country. I love it also because it brings back memories of being a child and living in the country side.

I bring the plants in and keep the patio door open, but otherwise don't change much.

We add beachy themed things to the house and also I love to keep fresh flowers and summery candles burning!

I don't really decorate differently but if I'm burning a candle, I would choose a more summery scent.

I do not really decorate for summer but I do try to lighten things up - remove any winter items and replace with springy items - lots of flowers!

I swap out darker, heavier objects for light and airy summer weight and colored objects.

I swap out some things for the seasons. I swap out the throw pillows on my neutral couch. Right now they are a bright floral pattern. I also swap out a couple faux floral displays to more seasonal designs. But my biggest change is my scents, both candles and my electric scent plugs smell like I am on a beach vacation right now.

Lots of plants - of many varieties. I am a plant mom - and am always looking for new ways to incorporate them into living spaces.
