One of the best things about having your own place is you have the freedom to decorate it—both inside and out—however you want. You can select a color palette, you can go with a specific theme for example a tropical touch or you can even make minor adjustments based on the particular season that you’re in. Brands like Smart Furniture carry home essentials that work for every season, but decorating based on weather and aesthetic can be a fun challenge.

Take summer, for example. If ever there’s a time of year to add a few a tropical touches here and there, right now, in the weeks leading up to summer, would be it. It can be super festive if you plan on doing a lot of entertaining over next several months. It can be even better if you happen to live in a place where the climate (and temperatures) are a little on the cooler side, but you want to feel as if you’re in Hawaii or the Caribbean.

The Perfect Tropical Decorations:

Hammock Chair Macrame Swing

Tropical Touch - Sorbus Hammock Chair Macrame Swing

Although most people would probably put a swing outdoors, this adorable macramé one is something we think would be cute underneath a tree, on your back deck or even hanging near a window in your home. The best thing about it is it’s just enough “tropical” and just enough “boho chic” at the same time to be fitting all year long.

Green Leaves Bedding Set 1 Tropical Botanical Pattern Duvet Cover

Did you know that if you purchase a quality comforter (and you cover it and air it out on a regular basis), it should be able to last you no less than 15 years? While that’s certainly good to know, looking at the same bedding, day in and day out can get to be a little…boring. Spice things up by getting one comforter for fall and winter and another for spring and summer. This watercolor one, featuring prints that look like palm tree leaves, is one of our favorites.

If you’re a solid color sheets kind of gal, Cariloha has amazing cool-toned sheets, with colors named “Blue Lagoon” and “Ocean Mist”. These sheets are great for the tropical, beachy vibe.
