How-to: Liven Up Your Space

Our closets aren't the only things in need of a spruce by the time summer comes around. We can't blame anyone for wanting to liven up their environment after the winter blues wear off. A change of scenery can revitalize your mood and get you ready for summer fun! We're here to make kicking winter to the curb a little easier. We bring you  a few little fixes totally capable of turing your space from winter drab to summer time fab! With these accents, your living space will be ready for sipping pre-beach smoothies with your girls every day. 

Plants
Ditch the daisies and go for a beautiful succulent or cactus! These plants are actually so stunning and so easy to care for. They are the perfect way to literally liven up your space without all the effort.
Lanterns
These little guys are so perfect for your patio, balcony, or inside your home! They come in all shapes, sizes, and colors so you can totally personalize your space with out any limits. Not to mention, these lights are so affordable, so stock up!
Dishes
Another super simple way to add some summer color to your home. There are so many cute patterns and varieties on the market right now. The possibilities are endless. What a perfect way to impress company and just add a little bit of color to every meal!

Scents
Although we can never get enough of the smell of fresh cut grass this season, we do tend to crave some over tantalizing aromas to sooth our souls. For the spring and summer time, go for lighter scents capable of adding that perfect hint of freshness, and when they come in so many cute casings, why would you want to miss out?!

Provence Lavender Potpourri, $14.99 / Good Nature Candle Tin, $16 / Painted Incense Holders, $3.99


Throws
We have said it once, we have said it twice, and we have probably said it a third time, but to reiterate once again, we love pattern play! Throw pillows and blankets are a great way to integrate this trend into your home. Mix and match them inside and out. Before you know it, your couch will be so playfully patterned you will never want to look away!

Check out this nifty pillow pairing application at World Market for some patten mixing inspiration.

Whether you invite a peculiar plant to share your air or you simply add a throw pillow to your couch, add a little something to your space this summer for an easy way to brighten up your attitude. As always, be inspired and be true to you. 


Truly Yours,
