Celebrating Summer with new Home & Bathroom décor!

News 06/15/2016

Summer is upon us! One of the many things people love about summer is the opportunity it gives to redecorate our homes. Recreate the happiness you feel in the summertime with décor that reflects the beauty of the outdoors! Check out our tips to get your house & bathroom ready for this season.
        Keep it light
While winter often reminds us of cozy snug spaces, summer is all about being clean, simple and fresh. Give your house more space to give it an airy look that reflects the lighthearted and carefree summer spirit. Easy ways to do this are simply de-cluttering busy spaces like countertops and hallways, or moving furniture closer to the walls to give the middle of the room more space. If you want to be a little more specific, try redoing your bathroom. Bathrooms have a prime opportunity to look elegant if done right. Often, bathrooms become chaotic because they tend to be smaller. The Sanistar takes up little space, looks modern and fresh, and is a great way to make your bathroom look as minimalistic as possible.
      Color themes
It is no surprise that lighter pastel colors brighten up any room. Take away dreary, dull colors like brown and black, and replace them with lively colors like white and light grey, or pastel blues, yellows and greens. Prints are also a great alternative – think of floral or fun geometric designs to make your space more modern. One way to make colors truly stand out is by having a white background with a bright accent color. For example, an all-white bathroom with white walls, toilets and showers could be paired with light blue towels, tiles, shower mats and soap dispensers.
      Coastal charm
One very popular trend of redecorating a house for the summertime is coastal charm. Seashell décor, seahorse wall hooks, palm tree shower curtains, or nautical welcome mats are great ways to make you feel like you are living by the water! White rustic wood is also a great floor, table or chair finish for those who want their homes to look like a cottage beach house. Pair your coastal charm with a bright color theme and you are well on your way to a perfect summer haven!
      Glass and mirrors
Opening up space is a sure way to make your interior look a lot brighter. However, if you don’t have the time or room to move around your furniture, then consider including mirrors or glass pieces in your home. The reflection of the mirror will make the room look more spacious and lighter, especially if you have a lot of windows and the sun is shining in! In addition, glass furniture such as glass tables, Lucite chairs, or glass shower doors, trick the eye into thinking the room is bigger than it actually is. Glass shower doors next to your sleek Sanistar would make the perfect summer bathroom space!
      Plants

Nothing reminds us of summer more than greenery, flowers and plants. While the fall and winter become barren landscapes, the spring and summer are all about life in full bloom. Give your home a taste of the outdoors with some plants for the bathroom or living room. Cast iron plants, spider plants, orchids, peace lilies and Boston ferns can really breathe life into a space. Not to mention, they are the perfect pop of color for any white background!
