The High-Low Dining Table from Fine Furniture Design’s Summer Home Collection is all that you’ll need in your dining room this summer.
Summer’s right around the corner and it’s understandable when most people can no longer contain themselves. Summer, after all, is the season for vacations, going to the beach, and inevitably, prepping your home for the new season. Everyone’s having a hopeful and warm mood so it’s time to hop on.
Accentuate with Yellow
Color is a very powerful tool in inspiring happiness. If you want your home to become a cheerful place this upcoming season, then vibrant color (or colors) is what you truly need.
And since it’s time to say hello to the summer sun. And since the sun is a burst of yellow, you might as well use this color as the accent color for your home this upcoming season. What better way is there to showcase summer than to see pops of yellow here and there?
Set Up a Reading Nook
Since summer is the time to relax, there are those who do not see beach parties and frolicking under the sun as the best type of relaxation. For those who just want to curl up and read a good novel, then this is the perfect time to finally set up your reading nook.
Cozy means you have to choose the perfect comfy chair that you could sink into. How about this Swanson Upholstered Metal Side Chair by Cynthia Rowley?

Nothing’s swankier than this gold-leafed and curvaceous seat. And the sheepskin? You just gotta have it. And if you’re feeling the vibe of setting up a reading nook for two, then all you gotta do is to invest in a loveseat, hang some wall art, prop those comfy throws, and you’re good to go. And, oh, don’t forget to snuggle your little kitty cat as you read your favorite sci-fi novel.
Set Up a Bar
Get those fruity and fresh summer cocktails flowing. Parties and get-togethers need a proper station. And just imagine concocting a mojito or your friends’ favorite mai tai as you all listen to some great music.
Consider setting up an island where the booze and fresh juices never end.
Decorate the Fireplace
No, you won’t be needing the fireplace a while so it’s best to fill it up and decorate it at the moment.
You can have an inspiring tableau of botanicals and blooms since the hydrangeas are going to be in full bloom. Another option is to have a summery glow in the evenings as you light up the citrus and coconut-scented candles right inside the fireplace. Have them set on candelabra that coincide with your home’s décor.
Or you can also just place a lovely fire screen for now and have an awesome artwork or a mirror hung above the mantel.
Have Fun Outdoors
It’s summer! This is the best time to take that furniture outdoors and have dinner with your family there. Don’t squander those lovely evenings. Set up a picnic table for your family and don’t worry too much about formality at the dining table for now.
Just have a laidback evening with your family and enjoy the food that’s been prepared.
Go Bohemian
Also known as the Boho look, this is the style that’s for people who love unique items and are interested in culture. Infuse a lot of colors and patterns, and do not be afraid to combine different design elements.
Bohemian anchor hues include greens, the deepest browns, and shades of gray. You can then accessorize with vibrant colors like electric blue, fiery orange or this year’s Pantone Color of the Year – UltraViolet.
And Go Sheer
Store those thick draperies away. You won’t need them for many months. For now, it’s time to bring out and hang those sheer white curtains. These curtains will allow natural light and breeze to flow freely into your home which is perfect since you’re going to enjoy this season.
