  1. Floral throw pillows.

    Adding a few cheerful and colorful throw pillows on your sofa or bed is an instant way to brighten your space as well as providing comfort for those lazy summer mornings reading or watching a movie.

2. Pastel table accents.

These delicious salt and pepper shakers by menudesign are so sexy! never thought you’d here those in the same sentence! on a white tablecloth with a vase of freshly cut flowers, your dinner table is sure to look beautiful for a summer party. Easily transition to a fall/winter table with darker plates on a bare wood table.

3. Linen Duvet cover.

Linen is a miracle fabric for breathability and body temperature regulation. it keeps you cool in summer, and aesthetically it evokes a natural, beachy vibe. no ironing necessary as the slightly rumpled look makes it even cozier! try this one from parachute home which is high quality, budget friendly and comes in all sorts of pretty colors. Pair it with a dreamcatcher for the ultimate summer look.

a super quick way to bring the outdoors in is with some beachy artwork. we love this round print on glass by the oliver gal artist co., a southern florida based art duo by two sisters. available in multiple sizes at maisonette.

5. cement tiles.

any plans to revamp a bathroom or entryway this summer? one of the most recent design trends (which of course has roots in the past) is cement tile, which has a definitive mediterranean feel. these tiles are made by many companies in a range of prices and colors. choose a bold black + white to make it season-less. these sweet, round geometric tiles are from the builder depot.
