Now that June is creeping in and the sunshine is turning up the heat, it’s the perfect time to shake off the last bits of spring and get your home summer-ready. Think: lighter, brighter, breezier. Whether you’re gearing up for backyard barbecues or just craving a vibe shift, a few simple tweaks can make your space feel like a mini getaway.
Step one? Air it all out. Crack those windows, turn on the fans, and let your home breathe. A little fresh air can instantly lift the energy in any space—and while you’re at it, pop on a summer playlist and pretend you’re starring in your own home makeover show.
Next, swap out the heavy stuff. Fold up the thick throws and fuzzy pillows and bring in some light, breathable fabrics—think cotton, linen, and anything that screams “vacation house.” Even just switching to lighter curtains can make a room feel completely new.
Summer also means it’s time to declutter the cozy chaos. Winter layers tend to stick around a little too long (looking at you, coat rack). Do a quick sweep through your closets, entryway, and random catch-all corners to clear out anything that no longer fits the season—or your mood.
Looking for an instant energy boost? Add some plants. Whether it’s a leafy palm in the corner or a few herbs on the kitchen windowsill, greenery adds life to every room. Plus, bonus points for anything that smells like summer—think basil, lavender, or mint.
Let’s not forget the entryway glow-up. First impressions matter, and this is your chance to add a little summer sparkle. A fresh doormat, a cheerful wreath, or a pop of color on your front door can make you smile every time you walk in.
And speaking of vibes—switch up your scents. Tuck away those vanilla and cinnamon candles and bring out bright, fresh scents like citrus, coconut, or eucalyptus. Light a candle, cue the iced coffee, and suddenly you’re living your best warm-weather life.
