DECORATING THE SUMMER KITCHENCategory: Family
Article added by: Teri Woods
What is it that your mind goes to when you think of the summer time?
Is it the bounty of fruits and vegetables that we constantly consume? Is it cooking a light meal with your family and friends? Is it Grandma’s perfect cherry or apple pies? If these memories bring an instant smile to your face then you should add some of these elements into your surroundings.
An all white kitchen offers sunshine and brightness all year round! In the summer months decorate with the essence of the season. Large bowls of fruit and baskets of watermelons. Extra large pots of sunflowers and bouquets of wildflowers. Remove your area rugs so that you can feel the cool floor under your bare feet. An island filled with baskets of large tomatoes, fresh green beans and cucumbers is all that you need to make a stunning, eye appealing arrangement. Place a large willow basket of fresh picked corn just outside your back door. This idea not only makes for an edible centerpiece but it forces us to eat healthier this time of year. It is all-good!
We should look at our own kitchens in a new light at this time of year. Just as in the Fall we bring in groupings of pumpkins and gourds we should also use the same concept, I believe, for each season. This makes for interest as we transition from one season to the next.
The wonderful season of summer! A time to take it easy and connect with the beauty of nature. Glowing sunshine abounds and gives us a feeling of renewal. Birds are singing, dragonflies are flittering to a fro and all seems right with the world.

| I have been an interior designer for over 20 years now and in the past several years have branched out into the world of Home Staging. I have staged homes in the price range of $200k to well over $1m and can proudly state that each home was sold within 3 days to 2 weeks after staged. Staging a home for the real estate market is an absolute must for the seller whom wishes the home to sell FAST and for absolute TOP DOLLAR! Once a home is properly designed to sell it will appraise at a higher value as well. Brokers reap great benefits from homes that are staged in that the home will sell much quicker than others that are not prepared for the "show", the two go hand in hand, Stagers and Realtors. |
