How to Spruce Up Your Home for the Summer

Summer is just around the corner. With Memorial Day almost upon us, it’s understandable why homeowners would want to change the way their home looks…especially for the warmer months. But how can you do that? One way is by investing in new curtains. While you may not think curtains will change the look of your home into a more summertime feel, they will. And easily too! By investing in curtains, drapes or any type of window treatment with lighter colors, you’ll be changing up the look of your space. Most homeowners don darker window treatment in the winter, but the look they want changes when spring and summer roll around. Spring is great for incorporating pastels and light pinks, purples and blues into a home. But when it comes to summer, it’s all about the light, bright, vibrant colors such as teals, rose golds and whites. Some homeowners even throw in navy blue to capture that coastal style so many love.

If you have vinyl windows, your frames will pair beautifully with whatever window treatment you choose. Vinyl windows are one of the easiest types of windows to decorate and they offer all different colors, styles and looks in your home. Whether you’re looking for a coastal feeling in your living room, a floral look in your bathroom, white drapes in your bedroom or a completely different look in your sun room, you can complete just about any style with vinyl windows.

Besides window treatment or purchasing all new furniture or home décor, you can change the way your home looks by replacing your windows. If you feel that your windows might be in need of replacement, they usually are. Replacing a window and choosing something that really sets your space apart is the key to investing smartly. Not only do windows change the look of your space, but you also get high performance windows out of your purchase. This is always a win-win.

Besides sprucing up your home for the change in season, it’s also important that your windows are up to par. If a window isn’t performing correctly, it needs to be fixed and possibly replaced…especially during summer and winter months. If your window is leaking air, it’s most likely making your home uncomfortable and seasonably warm and causing you to constantly adjust your thermostat and your energy bills to skyrocket. Vinyl windows can eliminate these issues and make your home feel like it should…comfortable and relaxing.
