Summer is a time of sun, fun and stepping out of your comfort zone. So nothing is better than bringing the brightness of summer indoors. This can easily be done through switching out boring homewares for something more colourful, like uniquely coloured or patterned pillow cases and throws, adding variety and flair to the home.

Spring may have ended, but with summer here, it’s the perfect time to refresh and embellish the home by bringing greenery into the home, to create a healthier, fresher feeling environment as well as acting as great statement pieces and decor. If creating an indoor garden isn’t your taste, perhaps it’s time to take advantage of any vacant garden or outdoor space, possibly providing a new hobby to try.

Being the ideal time to switch out the old for something new, take the opportunity to create your very own outdoor oasis. Investing in a new outdoor furniture set or a backyard statement piece can create the perfect environment for the summer barbecues and get-togethers. •

With seasonal fruit and veg comes the return of the local market culture. It’s also the best time to pick up a completely unique statement piece from a local vendor like a hand-made plate or sculpture. This not only acts as a great piece of decor for the home, but supports our local creators and artisans. So check out the vast selection of goods available at your nearest markets.
