Hey friend!

Is your home still wearing its winter coat? If your space is feeling heavy, dark, or just a little “meh,” this episode is for you. Summer is the perfect time to refresh your home with small, simple changes that make a big impact—and you don’t need to buy all new decor or follow every design trend to do it.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing 10 easy summer decorating ideas that will help you lighten, brighten, and cozy up your home—without the overwhelm, the expense, or the decision fatigue.

From refreshing your textiles and rearranging what you already own, to decorating with fruit (yes, really!), these tips are fun, doable, and totally budget-friendly. If you’re a busy mama who wants a home that feels warm, stylish, and pulled together this season—start here.

• How to instantly make your space feel lighter for summer

• Free and low-cost decorating ideas using what you already have

• The easiest way to bring the outdoors in—without buying new plants

Hey friend! This little 'radio show' (you'll hear more about that on the podcast) is celebrating 4 years and that means I want to GIVE you something to celebrate!! Please take a moment to leave the show a 5* review...doing so allows other women just like you to find the show! Wondering how to leave a review? It's easy: 1. Find fig & farm (at home) on Apple Podcast 2. Click on the show 3. Scroll about half way down 4. Stop where you see a BIG number and click the 5 stars (thank you!) 5. Underneath the BIG number, click on 'write a review' to tell me what you think, what you've learned, etc. Kindness appreciates kindness. :)

6. Take a screenshot of the review and send it to me at hello@figandfarmathome.com or DM me on Instagram @figandfarm Back to today's show... You get to be a fly on the wall inside the LIVE q & a coaching call inside The Collective, my monthly home decorating membership.

Today, you'll hear from: Nicole: who has slowly been transforming her home over the past 7 months. She wonders about art placement in her living room and hanging a plant above her ADORABLE console. Michal: who wonders if a mirror she's been eyeing at Ballard Design (that's finally on sale) fits within her personal design style (aka aesthetic) and, if so, how to make it work in her foyer. Side note: her personal style is so sweet. We named it: southern modern! Rosie: who is remodeling her family's cabin for future generations to enjoy. She's in the fun, but often confusing stage of making ALL THE DECISIONS. Fun when you have clarity, but overwhelming if you don't! You'll hear in the course of our 10 minute conversation how Rosie's overwhelm decreased dramatically just by getting her questions answered! Friend...do YOU want coaching like this too?
