So there are 5 things that you can do to spruce up your space for the summer that’ll flutter your heart a little bit and bring some color into your life.
Change Those Drapes
Take down your thick opaque winter regretful curtains and put up some sheer or if you’re worried about the creepers outside, you can use curtains that have brighter hues and scream fun. I’m putting up sheer curtains that give privacy but still flood natural light in. Don’t forget to give your windows a nice little clean so you can get the best sunlight that can result in best selfie lighting.
Switch Out Your Pillows
For the winter I had these deep burgundy pillows and mixed it these ivory pillows but we not doing that this summer we pulling out the color. So I’m going with these bright magenta pillows and mixing them with these sexy satin pillows I got from west elm.
Plant Life

Let’s get the best punchy flowed that will pull from the colors in your room (in your pillows and curtains) and pair them with some books, tchotchkes and some of your favorite things.
