Modern Bohemian Summer Home Decor Ideas and Tour

It’s been a rough few months here at Casa Watkins, but I’m happy to report that some sense of normalcy is on the horizon. The children are just about done with school and family members are improving on their health. Today, I’m happy to be joining Marty of A Stroll Thru Life on a summer home tour. The tour kicked off on Monday and included amazing homes shared each day this week. Today, be sure to head to Amber of Follow The Yellow Brick Road to follow the blog hop today then start the hop from the beginning.

As you enter our home, you are greeted by large art pieces in the blue hallway and bold wallpaper of our dining room. This dining room was once the unused formal living room area. Once I decided that we would no longer have unused rooms, I installed wallpaper and transformed it into the dining room.

Plants are one of my staple bohemian decor pieces and I used them practically in every room. I especially love to use them for centerpieces on tables and shelf decor which you will see in the kitchen. I recently recovered thrifted chairs with vibrant fabric and am really close to finishing the rest of the chairs.

Two years ago we decided to finally renovate the kitchen and expanded it by knocking down the wall separating the dining room and kitchen. This allowed us to design a long kitchen island for entertaining and sooo much more (and much needed!) cabinetry. I added more plants to the open shelving that blend so well with the tropical kitchen wallpaper.

The living room hasn’t been updated too much, honestly. My attention was mostly spent on picking up the toys! The kids are looking forward to having movie nights on the velvet green sofa this summer and I’m looking forward to taking naps.

Just a month ago I shared the makeover we did on our sunroom. The kids had destroyed the place with toys, messy art supplies, and more. Now, the colorful bohemian sunroom is one of my favorite places in the house! The hubs and I watch our shows in there surrounded by warm summer vibes. Here is another example of my 3 P’s to global decorating philosophy again.

Speaking of upgrades, I’ve slowly been updating the flooring throughout the house and just finished replacing all the carpeting upstairs with barnwood finish laminate flooring. I even replaced the vinyl flooring in the small boho laundry room with the laminate flooring too. The summer vibes ring in with tropical art I created for this space.

Well, that’s it for Casa Watkins. Be sure to head over to Amber of Follow The Yellow Brick Road to continue the blog hop. I can’t wait to view all those summer vibes Amber has in her home.
