Use baby blue or sky blue with white in the colour palette

Pastel walls and shelves
How about giving your walls and shelves a makeover with matte paint to add that much-needed soothing touch? Go with baby blue and white, cream, light yellow or just pink for best effect.

Having plants around is the best way to bring you up close to summer

Green wash
Nothing screams summer than a burst of plants in the home. Greenery is known to reduce stress and having nature up close pays the right nod to the new season.

Sheer curtains can completely change the vibe of your room
Rattan, cane and wicker chairs are sustainable and a good option at this time

Natural materials

When it comes to summer decorating, you don't always have to do a major overhaul. Just adding a few chairs made with natural textures like cane, rattan or bamboo also makes for a summer statement. Place pretty linen cushions on them to complete the whole look.

Photo frames with botanical motifs are a good way to drive home the trend

Wall décor
Swap heavy paintings for frames that display lighter artwork. The photo décor looks neat and can sync well with the colour palette in the rest of the house.
