Light & Bright Summer Swaps For Your Home

How To Freshen Your Home With Light Colors

This post was actually meant to be a list of tips for making your home feel light and bright for spring and summer, but I realized something when I actually sat down to write it—there’s really only one sure-fire way to make your home feel bright, and that’s by swapping out heavier, darker accessories with (you guessed it!) light-colored options. So, as I mentioned last week, I spent a little bit of time adding soft, neutral home accents to my Amazon shop, and I’m sharing 12 favorites with you guys below.

12 Light & Bright Summer Swaps:

1. Mid-Century Coat Rack

2. Casa Tissue Box Cover

3. Macrame Woven Wall Hanging

4. 7-Piece Tea Pot Set

5. Cast Aluminum Frying Pan

6. Modern Metal Pendant Light

7. Turkish Cotton Towel Set

8. Essential Oil Diffuser

9. Metal Circle Mirror

10. Textured Fringe Throw Blanket

11. Magnet Hook

12. Eat Drink Nap: Bringing the House Home, by Soho House

Do you have a favorite from that list? Have you started transitioning your home over to more season-appropriate décor now that it’s finally starting to heat up? I was watching Jacquelyn Clark’s Instagram Stories the other day, and she mentioned that she actually keeps one Tupperware box in storage with all of her seasonal décor in it. Come spring, she packs up all of her cedar-scented candles and fur blankets, then pulls out all of her lightweight textiles and summery candles. I love this idea (especially that she limits herself to just one box of swaps), and might just try it myself this year. Who’s with me?!

Does anyone else feel like winter went straight into summer? At any rate, that’s how it is here in Virginia, and I’m loving all of the gorgeous hot weather! John and I have been going out for drives almost every evening to take full advantage of these windows-down-type days, and I hope you guys are enjoying lots of delicious sun wherever you are, too. I’m actually getting ready to head out of town again for a family friend’s wedding, but here are a handful of fun links to peruse in case you want some inspiration (or a digital distraction!) this weekend.

1. I’m so inspired by light colors right now in home décor, so this week I stocked my Amazon shop up with light and bright wishlist items. See the curated collection here.

2. Speaking of home décor, this roundup of 16 ways to style a console really has me itching to move things around in our own space.

3. Cross body bags are my absolute favorite during these on-the-go spring and summer months. I love the green version of this one from Topshop.

4. We’ve got plans to fire up the logs in our back yard this summer, so I think it’s just about time to remake our recipe for Rice Krispies Treat S’mores.

5. The boho bedroom in this home tour makes me want to redo our guest room, stat! (you know…since our master just got a facelift)

6. I was glued to my screen while taking this renovated guest house tour on YouTube.

7. I’m adding these DIY Abstract Earrings to my must-craft list for summertime. I love how you can customize the color scheme—what colors would you do?

8. New favorite Etsy shop alert!
