Summer Decorating with White Decorative Accessories

Summer is fast approaching and if you are anything like me, you are excited about warm weather, tropical vacations, cool sands and beach front accommodations.  For me, the summer season is time well-spent vacationing away from my home, but it is also the season that I love to incorporate through out my home decor as well.  Decorating for each season is something that I find myself doing every season, but it is easier to do in the summer season because I just simply decorate using everything white….how easy can that be….LOL!  In these photos as well as in my new Haute On Design webepisode, I share decorating and design tips on how to decorate for the summer using white decorative accessories.

 

The first thing that I decorate for the summer season is my formal dining table by turning it into a summer library table.  I love to read especially during the summer season and by placing all my favorite books and magazines ontop of my dining table makes it a perfect get-away spot to enjoy my favorite reads.  I incorporate some of my favorite decorative accents to add visual appeal to the table.  Whenever I purchase a new book, I showcase the book by placing it on a stand until I discover my next new read.

Some people feel that a white sofa in a family room space is asking for big trouble…but not when the fabric is microfiber which is exactly what the fabric is on this sofa.  Since I am 3 years away from being an empty-nester, I figured it was okay to take the plunge and splurge on a light colored sofa which had been only a dream of mine up until now….LOL!    I added white and gray pillows to the sofa and using the Five Design Components for Decorating a Coffee Table,  I added decorative white accents on the coffee table.

China cabinets, hutches, bookcases and armoires are the perfect pieces of furniture to use when it comes to decorating with decorative accents.  During the summer season. I decorate my hutch in my formal dining space with a collection of white decorative accessories.  Not every piece in this hutch started its life as a white accent piece, some of pieces were spray-painted white…..yes, spray-painted white…..(you have to watch the video to see which pieces were spray-painted).  Designer secret…..instead of purchasing white decorative accents, just simply give a new look to an old accent piece with a can of spray paint.

Decorating a bedroom for the summer season is easy to do by just adding a few pieces.  A white duvet cover or comforter along with a couple of pillows in soft hues can add a clean, crisp feeling to the space.  You don’t have to go overboard with your accents pieces, just add a few onto the nightstands and change out the lampshades to a cool, crisp white shade.     The addition of the star-burst mirror above the bed completed the look and created a “5-Star Hotel” look….all under $300.00!
