Summertime is fun! We've been spending a lot more time outside enjoying the long days, warmer weather, and endless trips to snow cone shacks and swimming pools. Choosing the perfect design layout for your home this summer isn't always a walk in the park, but we have a few tips to help.

Tip #1: Bring the indoors outside. Patio season is the perfect excuse to make your backyard more comfortable. Moving chairs and tables to your patio or courtyard will give you more opportunities to spend time enjoying the weather. Adding fresh flowers and pops of color to tables and accent stools will add a new element to spruce up your home!

Find a new home that has a perfect indoor/outdoor combo for summer.

Tip #2: Add textures to where you relax. Replacing traditional tablecloths and bedsheets for linen will add a laid-back element sure to impress anyone who might be staying over. Linen is practical because it absorbs spills, minimizing the headaches of cleanup. Plus, the natural properties of the material keep you cool and dry. Adding flowy curtains is also an easy way to add value to these spaces.

 

Tip #3: Ready your firepit. If you enjoy roasting s'mores under the stars, spending a few minutes today making sure your fire pit is ready seems much more appealing than rushing to the store right before it closes while everyone at home is waiting to get the party started. 

That's it! Don't forget to follow us on social media for more design tips like those you just read! You're on your way to having an incredible summer.
