Whether you are creating a summer vibe for your home, summer vacation beach house or designing simple summer decorating ideas, wool is a great material if you have guests with allergies or sensitivities. You are less likely to experience allergies because wool is hypoallergenic. Its capacity to absorb moisture makes wool a "temperature regulator" keeping you cool in the summer & warm in the winter. By adding some new furniture made out wool-like materials like mattresses, bedding, throw pillows, futons, & sofas, you & your guests will feel more comforable. Wool mattresses are a great selection if you are looking for indoor outdoor furniture for warm weather.

For a relaxing and healthy summer, consider creating a natural home for you and guests. An easy way to create a natural home is adding natural indoor plants to remove air pollutants in homes. Another way is adding natural furniture to your home. Adding luxurious natural furniture and beautiful greenery to your home not only eliminates toxins from your home, but also creates a comfortable space.

Prepare Your Home for a Cool, Clean, and Clutter-Free Summer
Focus On Comfort
Summer is all about staying cool and comfortable, and small changes can make a big difference. Start with light-colored curtains to reduce the amount of heat that enters your home. Switch to cotton sheets, which are cooler and more breathable than traditional polyester sheets. Installing ceiling fans in every room is another great tip—not only do they help keep your home cool, but they can also reduce your energy costs.
Go Natural with Cleaning
Summer is the perfect time for deep cleaning, but before you reach for toxic cleaning products, consider natural alternatives. Mix vinegar and water to create an all-purpose cleaner, or use baking soda to clean your kitchen and bathroom. Avoid harsh chemicals as they can be harmful to your health and the environment.
Create a Hypoallergenic Space
Allergies can be a nuisance during the summer, so creating a hypoallergenic space is essential. Declutter your home to prevent dust and mold buildup in hidden areas. Switch to air-purifying indoor plants such as snake plants, bamboo palms, and spider plants. These plants not only help purify the air but also add a touch of greenery to your home. Investing in a HEPA filter can also help keep the air free of allergens.
Keep it Natural and Chemical-Free
Did you know that indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air due to household items containing harmful chemicals? To keep your home natural and chemical-free, switch to eco-friendly products like futons and mattresses with natural ingredients for your bedding, mattresses, natural furniture, toothbrushes, reusable cloth napkins, and beeswax wraps. Investing in a water filtration system ensures that the water you consume is clean and pure.
Maintain a Clutter-Free Space
Lastly, keep your home clutter-free. Summer is a time for relaxation and rejuvenation, and a cluttered home can cause stress and anxiety. Take some time to go through your belongings and get rid of anything that no longer serves a purpose. Invest in storage solutions to keep your home organized and tidy.
Preparing your home for summer can be a fun and rewarding experience. By focusing on comfort, natural cleaning, creating a hypoallergenic space, and maintaining a natural, clutter-free environment, you can create a beautiful and eco-friendly home. Remember, small changes can make a big difference. Let's make our homes a place where we can thrive and enjoy the summer season to the fullest!
