Summer, a season of gorgeous sunshine, relaxing breezes, and resetting your mind. It’s a fantastic time to keep the vacation recharge going with a full revamp of your personal quarters, whether that means buying linen sheets or saltwater-scented candles, there are both practical and aesthetic changes you can make to maintain your summer vibe all day and night. Here are some ideas for a warm-weather bedroom refresh: 

Easy-Breezy Bedding

Switch out your cable-knit, plush, thick winter bedding for cooler, breathable options, like lightweight linen blanket or a cotton quilt set. Be sure to invest in high-quality thread counts so that the thinness of the fabric doesn’t scratch against your skin during those hot summer nights. Try looking for tropical prints or warm pastels to match the season. These fabulous cooling cotton duvet covers from Brooklinen come in both summer whites and nautical stripes. 

Let the Light In

It’s all about shedding the lackluster monotony of gray winter. Swap out those heavy winter drapes with flowing sheer silk or linen curtains (like these from West Elm). This will allow natural light to filter in the softest, most dreamlike way,  allowing you to wake up in a calming summer haze. If you’re someone who absolutely can’t stand being disturbed by the sun, try adding roller blackout shades behind your lofty curtains, which allows you to maintain that airy glow during the day without sacrificing your beauty sleep.

A Pastel Color Palette 

Those dresses you wore for the Easter egg hunt when you were five? Channel that. Ocean blue, seafoam green, sandy beige, or peachy coral ....y ou can incorporate a traditional summer palette with subtle panache. Use summer-colored accent pieces like throw pillows, blankets, or this Serena & Lily coastal rug. Perhaps your walls are a bit bare--no art, no pizzazz, no texture--and you’re wanting to spruce them up. If you're feeling particularly bold, throw in an accent wall with a soft pastel shade. Removable wallpaper with seashell or tropical patterns is another option to summer-up your space.

It’s Coastal Grandma Summer

So act like it. No rustic summer house aesthetic is complete without classic seaside decor, and your options allow for a slew of chic oceanic touches. Create a seashell wreath for your door (like this one from Walmart,) or a seashell jar collection for your bedside table. Hang your beach film photos from summers past, or add driftwood pieces as wall art. Decorative nautical knots -- as slim or as chunky as you want -- work well around mirror frames, dresser knobs, or cozy armchairs.

Soothing Summer Scents

Contrary to popular belief, scented candles are not just of the cinnamon-and-fall variety, and diffusers aren’t just made to emit lavender or eucalyptus into the air either. Try purchasing coconut, citrus, sea breeze tropical candles (such as this classic Yankee candle) or essential oils in order to truly embrace a relaxing summer atmosphere, based on the kind of summer aesthetic you're going for. Fresh-cut summer flowers, like jasmine, carnations, or marigolds, can also add a scented element to your room, as well as a splash of summery color.

Natural Textures 

Adding the natural textures of summer in your room is the perfect way to add unique, functional, and decorative accents. Woven baskets for storage and laundry — Serena & Lily has an adorable one—  a bamboo side table or a rattan headboard can add some gorgeous rustic elements to your room.  Try replacing heavy lamps with wicker ones, or fill a clear glass base with sand and small shells for the ultimate summertime touch. 

Visual Vacations

Hanging artwork and photos that capture the essence of summer can make all the difference. Fruit and citrus-based prints, are relatively inexpensive; yet, they do a considerable amount of work to brighten up your bedroom.  If you want a pop of red or yellow, consider pomegranate or lemon-based art. Minted has a gorgeous dreamy Citrus piece. Botanical and floral watercolors give soft, soothing essences that capture the beauty of the season. You can even try adding woven wall hangings or decorative surfboards if you really adore hitting the waves.

Plant Life

Bring the outdoors inwards with some summertime greenery. Low-maintenance succulents or air plants can keep you company all summer long, whether they hang from the ceiling or live on your dresser. If you’re feeling bold enough and have a green thumb, try purchasing a fiddle leaf fig or bird of paradise for a gorgeous, living pop of color. If you’re not, high-quality silk synthetic plants (West Elm has your back) can fit your visual aesthetic without having to regularly nurture them.
