Summer is almost here and now is the time to pick a bold statement for your home! The warmer months bring on bright, exciting colors and textures. When selecting the right materials and colors, it’s easy to get a pretty and practical room.
Here’s a few of my favorite things to add a little pop of color and texture to a room:
1. Paint
A bold color on an accessory or accent piece is a great way to add a pop of color to a room. I always tend to gravitate towards blues and greens because they are so easy to coordinate many things with. The colors featured above are Florence and Graphite which create a pretty Boho vibe.
2. Add a succulent or cactus
These sweet little plants are making a big impact in decor. They are easy to care for and are fun to group together. These plants love to have dry feet, so make sure you have a container that will drain well. There are also great faux styles as well. Succulents and cacti are easy to pick up from the hardware store and make a quick centerpiece.
3. Place a vibrant rug
A bold rug can make a huge impact on a room. You can also layer a smaller, bright rug over jute for a large impact, budget friendly statement.
4. Add a bright pillow
Pillows are a quick way to add a dash of color to the bed or couch. They also come in a variety of textures and fabrics. A bold addition would be a pillow made of a Kilim rug, a textured surface or pom pom trim.
5. Baskets
These are a year-round favorite to keep things organized and to add visual interest. Rattan in the summer is always a great addition to any decor. The baskets shown above are from Target in the Room Essentials Line. I purchased this exact basket and plan on using it to help organize my studio and office.
