While the warmer months often bring days spent lounging outdoors, there’s frequently also more time spent entertaining, hosting and relaxing inside. The summer months dictate that children will be home from school, travel guests will be making an appearance and lots of house parties will be on the agenda.
The family room often becomes the landing pad for visitors and vacationers, thus, it’s important to create stylish and serene spot for guests to enjoy.
Here are some fun and inspired ways to give your family room a breath of fresh air just in time for the sunny seasons:
Injecting floral print into a family room is a great way to add decorative eye candy. A fresh floral lampshade, ottoman, curtains or pillows can create a garden rich vibe that is cheerful and welcoming. Bright and feminine floral splashes in purple and pink add a hint of glamour.

Go for gardening gusto with a family room filled with plant life. A classic family room gets a seasonal refresh with potted plants, shrubs and paintings of forest scenes. Including nods to nature in a family room adds more character and charm.
Pump up the spring and summer flavor of an existing family room by decorating with colorful accessories alongside funky furnishings. A plush blue velvet ottoman, white linen-like couches and a pink arm charm create the feeling of a sophisticated beach cottage.
Sometimes a family room upgrade only requires a dose of fresh color. Whether you decide to paint an accent wall in a sherbet shade or add a citrus twist to curtains, a revamp might entail just one new perky hue. Bright melon curtains give a family room space new pizzazz and polish.

If you’re stumped for ideas on creating a family room with spring ambiance, there’s no better way to signal the start of a new season than with some shabby chic farmhouse-inspired furnishings. Picnic plaids in pink and white dress up wicker armchairs that offer a perfect spot for guests and family members to read or relax.
For the ultimate spring and summer makeover, give a family room some renewed energy with coastal inspired design. Soft colors like light lime, pale yellow and baby blue give a family room a bit of beach essence. An outdoor rattan sofa, heron painting and nautical rope ottoman cover offer whispers of seaside.
I would never think to use orange in my family room, but it looks very fresh next to the bright white colors in the room. I may give it a try.

These are all great ideas. I've found that one of the best ways to revamp a room is to throw some color on it!
ReplyDeleteAgree. It's so easy to add colors with pillows, paint, throws, decor, etc. I have basic white/tan and add a new accent color every few months.
DeleteThanks for stopping by, Stacie!

I'm a fan of coastal decor. We are about 5 minutes from Delray and just about everybody has seaside/beachy decor.

Absolutely spectacular decor! I love all the colors the brightness and furnitures. They are absolutely a great theme and match to each other.
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend and I prefer clean, white, crisp looks for our rooms. Our furniture and decorations are more neutral with little pops of color though
ReplyDeleteLove that first look! I can't wait to break out the Spring and Easter decor and get to decorating! Actually, I might have to do that today now!
ReplyDeleteI'm right in the middle of a living room re-do/refresh. New furniture on order and selecting a new wall paint color. Cannot wait to see the finished project.

ReplyDeleteLove these suggestions.. I love fresh and clean decoration, especially in the summer and spring.
ReplyDeleteOoh Those family rooms are amazing! I love the bright colors and all the light coming through. We have big window in our family room but the chairs are dark so I think that makes the room look small. Got to change that!

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Kathy.
DeleteWow that white and orange room is so awesome! I guess it's the way the two colors are so separated that makes it so interesting.
