3. Fill Your Space with Summertime Scents

Perhaps you don’t quite want to change up any of your décor. No worries! Simply add a new fresh scent to your essential oil collection, wall scent plug, potpourri, or candles. Citrus, floral, and beachy scents are always a favorite this season!

4. Switch Out Accent Pillows

Freshen up your couch and bedroom by swapping out your accent pillows and blankets. If you’ve already invested in pillows that you LOVE, store them in a closet or space-saver bag underneath your bed. When you transition into the next season, you can take them out again for another quick and easy way to refresh your décor.
