Here are some easy ways to let the light into your home this summer (that don’t involve knocking down walls or cracking open paint cans).
Centerpieces
Fill a vase or glass bowl with summer fruits like lemons or limes, bright candy, or maybe some seashells for a beachy theme. You can also bring the outside in with a watering can floral arrangement.
Mirrors
Mirrors reflect light, so adding one to a room is sure to make it pop, especially if you place it across from a window.
Plants
A lot of greens and floral arrangements will bring your favorite outdoor summer vibes in. Whether you choose real or artificial plants is up to you—either will do the trick.
Decor
Some easy seasonal switches include white or pastel pillows, throw blankets, table cloths, and hand towels. Organize and store such items by season to make decorating a breeze.
Curtains
Sheer curtains are an awesome addition to your home during the summer because they allow natural light to shine through.
