Memorial Day is more than a long weekend — it's the perfect time to refresh your space and welcome summer indoors. Whether you're planning a backyard BBQ or simply craving a seasonal reset, a few intentional decor swaps can instantly elevate your home.
Here are 7 easy Memorial Day home styling ideas to help you transition from spring softness to summer brightness — without a full makeover.
1. Swap Pastels for Sun-Kissed Hues
Trade in spring’s soft pinks and lilacs for bold corals, citrus yellow, and ocean blues. These colors instantly evoke a sunny, laid-back summer mood.
