Looking for simplicity this time of year? Here are 7 simple and inexpensive summer decorating ideas you can do in no time.

It’s summertime!  A time for relaxing and enjoying some quiet time and sunshine. Here are some ways you can simplify your summer decorating a bit. 

1. Don’t use a bunch of theme-y summer decor you’ll have to switch out in the fall. 

Add a few shells in a bowl or a small piece of drift wood but don’t go crazy. Save time and money and use everyday pieces with a light touch and feel.

3. Stick to neutral colors to keep things calm and flowing.
