There’s something about summer that inspires a fresh start. The windows are open, the light is golden, and suddenly the clutter in the corner just feels… a bit heavier. The good news? Creating a breezy, feel-good space doesn’t have to mean a full home overhaul. At Happy Place Spaces, we believe in making your home feel peaceful, functional, and totally you—even with just a few thoughtful tweaks.
Here are some of our favourite ways to bring those sunny summer vibes into your home—fast!
1. Rotate & Refresh Decor
Swapping out heavy throws, dark-toned accents, and seasonal décor can instantly lighten the feel of any space. Bring in soft neutrals, woven textures, or pops of color through pillows, artwork, or a cheerful new vase. Even moving pieces from one room to another can offer a whole new energy.
2. Create Drop Zones
Summer often brings more activity—beach bags, sunscreen, hats, and sandals seem to multiply overnight. Set up simple, designated drop zones by the door with baskets, hooks, and trays to keep it all in check and out of the way.
3. Clear the Counters
One of our go-to tips during Happy Hour Consults is to give your surfaces breathing room. Start by removing non-daily items from kitchen and bathroom counters—it makes your space feel instantly more calm and functional.
4. Organize with the Season in Mind
Use labeled bins or baskets to store seasonal items like bug spray, sunglasses, and water bottles. Keep them in easy-to-reach spots (we love a tidy shelf by the door!) so summer essentials are always ready to go.
5. Reimagine a Corner
Have a spot that’s collecting clutter? Turn it into a reading nook, coffee bar, or plant corner. Sometimes a mini space refresh is all you need to fall in love with your home again.
