Trending on Remodelista: 5 Summery Details to Incorporate Into Your Decor

August 9, 2019

It’s high summer, and Remodelista editors are determined to bring some of that warm-weather magic indoors. Here are some easy, fresh decor ideas to go with that glass of cold lemonade in your hand.

1. Tame Some Wild Flowers

Instant summery charm can be had by simply plucking a clutch of wild flowers and putting them in a vase, pitcher, bottle, or whatever vessel you have lying around. Photograph by Jefferson Smith, from The Engine House: A Romantic Rescue in the English Countryside (Available for Getaways).

2. Use Modern Wood Trays

Light wood channels the brightness of the season. Alexa gathers her favorite wood trays in \10 Easy Pieces: Round Wood Trays, including these ash wood versions by Hasami.

3. Plumb the Seas for Inspiration

4. Embrace Rattan

The old-fashioned material is back in a big way, and summer is the best time to bring it into your home. We&#8\2\17;re loving Soane Britain&#8\2\17;s handmade rattan lighting, like this Hanging Petal Light. See Summer Lights: Playful Rattan Lamps, Sconces, and Pendants by Soane Britain.

5. Hang a Few Adirondack Baskets

Adirondack baskets are not only charming but also useful. Hang a few around the house as a catchall for mail, magazines, and more.
