And it doesn’t have to be complicated; sometimes just a few simple window decorations can provide the splash of summer you’re looking for.

Lighter, brighter colours

Out with the wintry colours, and in with a fresh palette to create a summery, airy atmosphere in your home. Let your window treatments breathe by choosing pale, clean colours (e.g. white, pastel). If you want to evoke the vibrant side of summer, try floral fabrics and bold botanical designs.

Go natural

To add that extra bit of summer style to your interiors, why not experiment with some fresh, earthy materials? Wooden blinds offer a crisp, modern look but also allow you to control how much summer sun filters through. You could also try woven shades, designed to keep out the harshness of the sun’s glare, but still allowing soft, natural sunlight to permeate through.

Arrangement

When it comes to creating a new, seasonal look, working with what you’ve got can sometimes offer a creative, practical solution to problems. Concerned about privacy but want to let the sunlight seep in? Hanging new, sheer blinds halfway down a window could be the answer.

Windowsill decoration

Feel like something is still missing? Adding simple decorations to your windowsill can be all you need to complement your windows’ new look, and to bring the outdoors inside. A handful of shells or a vase of garden-fresh flowers might be the finishing touch you were looking for.
