Once you’ve settled into the home of your dreams, step up your summer d\u00e9cor and make your space entirely special to your family with these outdoor and indoor design tips.<\/p>\n

1. Brighten It Up:<\/strong>Paint, fabric and accessories such as decorative pillows and picture frames provide opportunities to sneak rich hues into otherwise neutral spaces without a huge commitment of time or money.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2. Dine Under The Stars:<\/strong>As long summer days turn into pleasant nights, extend your time outside by dining outdoors in the backyard or on the patio. Invest in a set of outdoor furniture that can withstand the elements. You can also hang a stand of string lights for added ambiance in the evenings.<\/p>\n

3. Keep It Fresh:<\/strong>Plants and flowers have the power of giving any room a pop of color and fresh scent. Tie into summer holidays such as Fourth of July and pick up a beautiful red, white and blue bouquet for your coffee table.<\/p>\n

4. In With The Old: <\/strong>Give an old piece of furniture new life by using high-gloss spray paint in a summery hue, like yellow, blue or green. The glossy paint creates a fun look with a modern edge.<\/p>\n

5. Utilize Natural Light: <\/strong>Open up the windows and pull back curtains to let the light in. Get rid of pieces that are dark and gloomy as well to brighten up the room. Stow away heavy accessories, throws, and unnecessary items until it’s time to cozy up again for fall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

6. Switch It Up: <\/strong>While a fireplace is a great focal point in living and family rooms, consider rearranging you furniture for the summer. Rather than huddling around a cozy fire, shift the focus of the room toward a large window.<\/p>\n

7. Stay In The Moment: <\/strong>Tech-less living rooms have been popular this year as an effort to keep families unplugged and engaged with each other. In a house full of gadgets, strategically leave one without any to facilitate quality family time.<\/p>\n
