Redecorate Your Home for Summer

Summer is officially here, and a great way to celebrate this fantastic season is to let your home decor reflect it. You will find a wide variety of the best home decor at the Lake of the Ozarks in our Eldon gift shop. If you are ready to bring the look and feel of summer inside your house, Good & Perfect Gifts has a few ideas to help you do this. 


Bright, summery colors

Adding pops of color all around the rooms in your home is a wonderful way to bring in a cheery feel. Bright greens like a freshly mowed lawn, vibrant yellows and oranges like a sunny day, or the refreshing blue of a clear afternoon sky. Each of these embodies summer.   


Refreshing, summery scents

It's time to trade out those warm, wintry scents for lighter ones. Freshly washed linens, fruity citrus and melons, or a salty ocean breeze. Smelling those aromas will put your mind and spirit on a mental vacation. Our Swan Creek Candle Co. soybean wax candles are excellent for this. Also, don't forget that every Thursday we offer an incredible special on all of our wonderfully scented Tyler products for Fragrant Thursday.  


Bring the outside in

Nature is gorgeous, so don't hesitate to bring some of that beauty indoors. If you don't have a green thumb, the artificial flower arrangements in our Lake of the Ozarks gift shop are a fantastic substitute that requires no special care. Simply put it in place and enjoy. 

Another easy way to bring the outdoors in is to open the curtains and bathe your home in natural light. As long as the weather permits, open those windows too. 

Don't forget to decorate the outside

After you bring some of nature's beauty indoors, go back outside and decorate the front of your home, plus any areas that you will utilize often this season, like back porches and decks. Curb appeal adds a lot to the look of a house. Wreaths and banners on doors, decorative flags hanging from poles, and pretty flower pots at the entrance will all make your home warm and inviting. 


Utilize fresh fruit

Summer is the time when many of the most colorful fruits are in season. Fill bowls with your favorites. The added bonus to looking beautiful is that they are also edible. Once you enjoy the flavors, you'll need to buy more, so this look can be changed up often. 

Switch out your art and tchotchkes

A quick way to change the look of a room is to replace the art on your walls every season. That doesn't mean that you have to buy new art every few months (although we do have an amazing collection of wall art in the store!) Rotate your favorite pieces instead. The same goes for all of those knick-knacks on the shelves. Switching them out, or simply moving them to another area, will refresh the decor. 


When you are ready to update one, or all of the rooms in your house, visit us at Good & Perfect Gifts. You will find a little bit of everything within our constantly changing merchandise. Right now our gift shop at the Lake of the Ozarks is full of fabulous items that are perfect for helping your home reflect this marvelous new season we have entered. Stop in often and see what's new each week.
