Affordable End-of-Summer Design Tips
What’s Anita’s go-to affordable end-of-summer interior design tip? Bring summer flowers into your interiors. She recommends hydrangeas from the garden or a local florist. It’s a great way to hold onto the end-of-summer vibes.
“Think of repurposing the summer colors you used in your home and using them as part of your fall decor,” says Paulina. “Some light colors look beautiful in fall and winter. Cream is one of my favorite accent colors that can be used year-round.”
Shannon gives some practical advice when it comes to end-of-summer interior design. Her tip is to take care of your outdoor furniture in the off-season! It can last a long time if well maintained. Bring cushions in for the winter, cover the furniture with waterproof covers, and use teak oil to care for teak pieces.
Beginning-of-Fall Tips
Anita’s beginning-of-fall strategy is simple and smart: bring in subtle fall hints without overdoing it, like this gorgeous neutral living room. White pumpkins, a leafy wreath, and a cozy taupe throw are the perfect transitional decor pieces.
When it comes to affordable fall design, Paulina is all about embracing nature’s bounty. She’s got a knack for using foliage to make your space feel warm and inviting without costing a fortune. Think autumn-colored leaves that add a burst of seasonal charm or eucalyptus, which are her faves.
Shannon says her fall affordable interior design tip is to, “Get excited for fall coziness! It’s easy to do affordably. Add textured blankets, velvet pillows, and fall-scented candles to your space.”
And there you go! Now your home’s all set to breeze through the seasonal change without skipping a beat. These designer-approved, affordable interior design tips are your ticket to a stylish, affordable transition.
