When you are updating your garden with seasonal colors or looking for plants which are annuals, be sure and think about bringing the outdoors inside. There is something special and unique when flowers, branches and other greenery are featured inside the home.

Knock out roses are a great choice where I live because they tend to bloom repeatedly.

Get the Look – Bathroom

We added crepe myrtles to the front and side of our home. The blossoms don’t last more than a few days inside, but they are stunning!

Get the Look – Console Table

On our last trip to Laguna Beach, I paid a visit to one of my favorite decor stores. While there, I managed to find an over-sized sand dollar, coral, and shells too. Nothing exemplifies summer more than beach treasures. Be sure and take advantage of this time of year and add these fun items to your decor scheme.

An easy way to whiten and brighten your home for summer is with white accessories. I’ve noticed that more are on the market than ever before. And they are a quick fix for a kitchen, coffee table, or any surface you want to look more summery.

Get the Look – White Accessories

Throw pillows count as white accessories too. I found some darling white ones for summer by Pom Pom at Home.

This one is such a favorite, I have used it inside and on my patio.

The other two have the cutest hand stamped patterns.

Get the Look – Breakfast Room

 

 

You may recall me covering this before. When I am decorating an interior space that borders my outdoor living space, I want to ensure that my inside vision carries seamlessly to the outdoors. I always think that my back patio is an extension of my living room. By doing so, a natural flow is recognized both inside and out.

In addition to creating flow between indoor and outdoor living spaces, if you have a view from your home, do what you can to highlight it!

Simple, yet elegant touches can truly make your food stand out and compliment your decor scheme. Below I have fresh baked banana nut muffins placed on a cake stand. Also, I have placed fresh bananas onto a stack of lovely dinner plates and elevated them by placing it all on top of another cake stand. Additionally, a cereal bowl does double duty as a lemon bowl.

Get the Look – Kitchen

The presentation of your food and drink items are like an exclamation point on the evening. From fruits and salad to meats and cheeses: the better your food looks the better it tastes. It’s really true! And summer food is some of the most beautiful, so take advantage of it!
