FFDM’s Summer Home Collection features these wicker chairs and hardwood pieces which lovingly frame the freshly-picked fruits on the glass top table.<\/p><\/div>\n

It is always nice to come home to an inspiring, fresh entry with summer d\u00e9cor on display. Just imagine walking into this lovely, summery <\/em>concoction as you come home from a busy day at the office. Just embrace that warm feeling as you step into your home each day. But do you know how to create the summer-themed entryway?<\/p>\n

Set a Beachy <\/em>Tone <\/strong><\/p>\n

Okay, now that you\u2019ve imagined how the summer look is going to be, what elements would you actually like to see? Pick one that represents summer through and through. This should be prominently displayed in your entryway. This can be that unused surfboard or colorful sand complete with seashells right by the entryway corner. A beautiful seaside painting or a stack of beach books and magazines would also be nice.<\/p>\n

Other beachcombing finds could also be included such as sea glass, driftwood, and smooth stones. Welcome summer with a display of these\u00a0 beach finds.<\/p>\n

Summer Essentials Out in the Open <\/strong><\/p>\n

Apart from the things just mentioned, you can also bring out your straw hats and display them on hooks. Even simple items such as colorful beach towels can also be a soothing, welcoming sight to look at. With your new summer look being staged, it\u2019s wise to leave your beach gears out in the open.<\/p>\n

You may also leave a beach bag filled with beach essentials such as sunscreen, swimsuits, and sunglasses. These can be packed and placed right by the door. After every trip that you take to the beach, wash your beach stuff then repack them so that you would always be on the go<\/em> in terms of enjoying in the beach.<\/p>\n

A Relaxing Atmosphere <\/strong><\/p>\n

Summer is a season when you should relax and take it easy. Have a small, woven tray set up by the entryway where your mails could be placed. You could also have a hidden storage and some carefully chosen accessories. The secret is to streamline. Remember that keeping the design simple is the secret to achieving a more relaxing atmosphere.<\/p>\n

It would also help if you imagine that a magazine photographer is coming over to shoot a few pictures of your entryway so go ahead and throw all the junk-like stuff that you are still keeping. Get rid of your old mails, ratty shoes and clutter. This way, you get to bring out your creativity.<\/p>\n

Smart Storage Solutions <\/strong><\/p>\n

There might be things in your home that are not photograph-worthy. This does not mean that you\u2019d leave them sprawled all over the living room floor. Just so you get to keep the streamlined look, make sure you have ample storage units in your home. The clutter-free look gets covered when you have ample cabinets or shelves to house the unused items.<\/p>\n

Go All White <\/strong><\/p>\n
Who says white isn\u2019t fit for a summer theme? You can go for an airy feel even in a small entryway. It would help to put things away, as usual, and then have a whitewashed mirror bracketed onto the wall. Add some baskets on the floor to balance the white mirror. Add shoes and other summer essentials into the baskets.<\/p>\n
Dress Up the Stairs <\/strong><\/p>\n
An entryway that opens to the stairwell might look a bit boring. Add bold color strokes then delegate one wall as a photo gallery. You can try painting the runner on the stairs. Do this by taping off the mid-section then coating it with the summery <\/em>color that you choose. Match the frame color to the runner for a fresher look.<\/p>\n
Placing a woven rug at the foot of the stairs can also literally flood the room with a summer vibe. Just make sure that the rug material is sisal, sea glass or jute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
