Guest post- Top design tips for bringing the summer indoors!

This post is brought to you by Laura Wright.



We all love summer. Whether your favorite part of the summer season is the
early sunrises, sunny weather, BBQs, late sunsets or just being outside, it is a
great time of the year.

If you love the summertime, but can not spend the
whole time outdoors, why not bring that summer feeling inside? Here are a few
top design tips to help you bring the summer into your home.

Add a
splash of color

Bring those summer colours into your home by
painting a feature wall for a fresh look – think yellow, orange, lime green,
pink and baby blue. These colors work wonders and will transform your home to
a warm and summery haven.

If you do not want to get the paintbrushes out, you
could choose to use colourful fabrics to magically make the room feel more
summery.

Accessorize with flowers

Your home will look like a new place just by
adding some gorgeous fresh flowers. Whether you have decided to buy your
favorites from the local florist or simply pick a few from your garden, your
interior will suddenly come alive. 

If you have a fireplace that roars during the
winter, update it for the warmer months by replacing those logs or coals with
flowers. It does not always have to be fresh flowers though; you can even bring
the outdoors in by using floral napkins and tablecloths. 

Swap
dark hues for light shades

During the miserable winter days, your home
becomes warm and snugly thanks to dark colours. From your pillows to your
throws and rugs, just about everything is a mix of browns, blues and blacks.

To bring the sunshine inside, store these items
away until next winter and bring out the bright and light colours. Cover your
sofa with a white or cream throw, add bold cushions and cover that dark wooden
flooring with a brightly coloured rug.

Let in
the light

In the cold months it is important to keep the heat
in our homes, so we hang thick and heavy curtains. You could completely
transform your interior into a light and airy summer home by pulling back the
curtains, swapping them for white or pastel drapes and opening those windows.

Do not let your interior design keep you in the
dark - lighten up the place and bring the summer inside.
