Summer is here, which means it’s time to give your house a fresh and cool look. As the weather has changed, you need to change the look of your house. You can get rid of all the dark colours, carpets, thick curtains, rugs, and anything which is not suitable for this season. If you are looking to give your house a summertime makeover, then here is a list of a few things you need to tackle first.
Curtains
Remove all the heavy and dark-coloured curtains from the room. Instead, opt for light-coloured curtains. To keep the summer heat at bay, you can choose light fabric blackout curtains, and pair them with linen sheer curtains. The lightweight fabric and the colour will instantly make your room look airy and bright. Do not hesitate to choose printed or pastel-coloured curtains for the summer season.
Carpet
It is time for the carpet which you had laid down in the winter season to get packed. Instead, you can get cotton rugs or runners for the floor. This will elevate the look of your room and not cover up all the tiles. The more tiles visible, the airier and more vibrant the room will look. You can choose various prints, pop colours or geometrical shapes to define a particular space in your house.
Cotton fabric
Switch to cotton fabric for almost everything. From your sofa covers, cushions, and bedsheets to your tablecloths. Make sure that you use lightweight cotton fabric in pastel colours or small floral prints to make your house look cool and breezy.
Ceiling fans and AC servicing
If you haven’t had the chance yet to clean the ceiling fans, now is a good time. Clear out all the dust and dirt accumulated on the fan blades to ensure the efficient working of the fan. Meanwhile, also get your air-conditioner serviced so that you can start using it as soon as the temperature begins to soar up.
Indoor plants
How can you make your house look fresh, and cool from the inside? Well, adding greens into the space will add liveliness and freshness to your house. From succulents and cacti to money and flowering plants, do not hesitate to add a dash of green wherever possible.
Bright colours
You need not paint your house to make it look summer-ready. Just remember to add pop-up colours wherever possible to add vibrancy to your room. For example, if you have a beige-coloured wall, you can hang colourful wall plates or paintings. You can add one bright-coloured cushion, on your sofa or a quirky decorative piece on your table.
Flowers
Get a florist to deliver flowers to your home frequently. In the summer season, you can showcase your stunning and unique-looking flower vases by adding real flowers to them. You can add roses, chrysanthemums, daisies, lilies or tuber roses.
