Summer is the perfect season to breathe new life into your home. Longer days and brighter light make everything feel more open—and that energy is contagious. But updating your space doesn’t mean you need a full renovation or a big budget. With just a few intentional changes, you can create a home that feels cool, calming, and effortlessly stylish.
Here are five simple yet powerful ways to refresh your home decor this summer—using affordable and trend-forward picks from Picky House.
Start with the color palette. Summer calls for light, airy tones—think soft whites, sandy beiges, sky blues, and gentle greens. These hues reflect light beautifully and instantly make any room feel more open and breezy.
Swap out darker textiles for lighter options:
👉 Shop throw pillows and neutral trays to brighten up your space without the heavy lifting.
If you want your space to feel fresh without the upkeep, artificial plants are a game-changer. They add texture, color, and life—without the maintenance of real greenery.
