Soak Up the Season: Summer Vibes
Summer isn’t just a season—it’s a feeling. It’s the warmth of the sun, the breeze off the water, the crunch of sand underfoot. And the best part? You can capture that carefree, sun-kissed magic right inside your home. This summer, it’s all about texture and vibe—two key ingredients to make your space feel light, layered, and alive.
1. Lighten Up with Natural Textures
Nothing says summer like nature-inspired elements. Swap out heavy fabrics for breezy, tactile materials that invite touch and evoke simplicity.
Linen & Cotton: Drape your spaces with light, breathable textiles. Think linen curtains, cotton throws, or pillow covers in sun-washed hues.
Woven Wonders: Bring in rattan, jute, bamboo, and cane to add instant coastal charm. A woven pendant light or textured rug goes a long way.
Raw Woods: Skip the polish and lean into the beauty of unfinished, sun-bleached wood for furniture or decorative accents.
2. Embrace a Sun-Drenched Palette
Color is one of the fastest ways to shift a space’s mood—and summer’s palette is all about warmth and ease.
Soft Neutrals: White, sand, oat, and clay set a breezy base that feels both relaxed and refined.
Sunset Shades: Layer in soft coral, terracotta, and golden yellows for a warm, glow-up effect.
Sea-Inspired Blues: From soft sky to deep navy, blues add a splash of coastal cool.
3. Layer in Organic Touches
Summer is lush, so bring the outside in with nature-inspired decor.
Dried botanicals or pampas grass in a ceramic vase
Terracotta pots with herbs or succulents
Textured ceramics or handcrafted bowls for visual interest.
4. Go Playful with Summer Vibes
Texture isn’t just tactile—it’s emotional. Bring in objects that spark summer memories.
Beachy Decor: A bowl of collected shells, a framed print of a vintage surf scene, or driftwood on a shelf.
Textured Art: Try fabric wall hangings, woven art, or clay tiles to add dimension without clutter.
Outdoor-Inspired Pieces: Lanterns, string lights, or even an indoor hammock give major staycation energy.
5. Let the Light In
Summer is all about that glow. Pull back the curtains, add mirrors to reflect light, and choose lighter tones in furniture to make your space feel airy and open.
Bringing texture and summer vibes into your space isn’t about a total makeover—it’s about layering pieces that awaken your senses and reflect the season’s ease. Whether it’s a woven basket, a breezy throw, or a vase full of sunflowers, it all adds up to a home that feels like summer.
