Yesterday was the first day of summer 2011, but if you're in Fargo, you might never have guessed. Since the beginning of spring, we have really only had a few warm, sunny days -- and the summer started out with a large dose of rain. It still hasn't stopped raining.
But summer will be here. Eventually. Even though it doesn't seem very summer-like (to me) right now, you might be itching to give your house a fresh, summery feel. Let's start out with some color palettes.
At some point, you will probably need to escape the summer heat. Sure, air conditioning feels great after spending some time outside, but the colors you choose for your decor can help cool you off even more quickly. In color psychology, "cool" colors -- blue, green -- can make a room feel much cooler. Learn more about using cool colors in your home.
In the summer, less is more when it comes to accessorizing. A clean, open space gives your home a fresh, summery feel. So, what kind of accessories should you use, then? Find out here.
Each person might be looking for something different: new paint color ideas, simple accessorizing ideas...or even as much as a kitchen or whole-house remodel. But if you are just looking for some quick and easy ways to decorate for summer, try making smaller changes with new paint colors and accessories.
