FIVE Tips for a Summer Home Refresh
Here are five easy updates that bring fresh energy and style without a full makeover:
1. Lighten Up with Textiles
Swap out heavy throws, dark pillows, and thick drapes for light, breathable fabrics like linen or cotton in soft neutrals or breezy colors. Think whites, sandy beiges, ocean blues, or sun-washed pastels. These small swaps instantly give your space that airy, summery vibe.
2. Bring the Outdoors In
Freshen up your home with greenery! Whether it’s a large fiddle leaf fig, a cluster of potted herbs in the kitchen, or seasonal blooms in your entryway, plants bring life, texture, and a natural pop of color.
3. Update Your Accessories
Switch out decorative accents like trays, vases, and candles for pieces in lighter hues or natural materials—think woven baskets, glass vessels, and ceramics. This is a quick way to refresh your shelves, cocktail table, or kitchen island without major effort.
4. Restyle Your Entryway
First impressions matter! Add a new entry way rug, hang a fresh mirror or artwork, and bring in a stylish console table vignette with a permanent botanical that greets your visitors. It sets the tone for your whole home.
5. Embrace Seasonal Scents
Never underestimate the power of fragrance. Rotate in summer-inspired scents like the IBB Dreammaker candle, diffuser, or room spray with notes of Bergamot, Amber, and Neroli Blossom with Oud Wood. It instantly shifts the mood—even before anyone sees the space.
