When life gives you lemons freshen up your space and create a summer lemon-inspired farmhouse mantel. Transform your home into a fresh and vibrant space that will bring the cheerful sunshine of summer indoors. Make your own DIY Lemon Print Art and DIY Home Sign with a Lemon Wreath to personalize and update your summer decor.
Cheerful yellow lemons and greenery are all you need to transform your home into a fresh and vibrant space this summer. As the saying goes, when life gives you lemons freshen up your space and create a summer lemon-inspired farmhouse mantel.
One of my favorite spots in my home to decorate is the mantel in my living room. I love changing up my mantel decor for each holiday or season. Our DIY shiplap wall provides the perfect backdrop for any occasion and this space is easy to transform without breaking the bank.
After what seemed like a very long and dreary winter I knew I wanted my home to feel bright and cheerful this summer. When I spotted this beautiful lemon garland I knew it would be the perfect theme for my summer mantel decorations.
I mixed the Artificial Lemon Garland with the Lambs Ear Garland and hung it from the front of my mantel. A vintage window is often the focal point on my mantel, and I love to brighten it up by adding a handmade wreath. I used the Gold Wreath with Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and added lemon leaves and yellow lemons to tie it into our summer theme.
I created a DIY Home Sign with a small lambs ear and lemon wreath. This DIY sign gives height and creates visual interest on the mantel.
On the opposite side, I made a framed DIY Lemon Print Art with the Large DIY Unfinished Wood Frame. This simple piece of art was an easy and inexpensive way to add a personalized piece of lemon art that coordinates perfectly with the other decorations.
Fill a jar with fresh or faux lemons and balance out all the cheery yellow with pops of turquoise and blue. The Blue Textured Glass Vase is a great option to add additional texture and color.
I made a DIY Squeeze the Day Lemon Pillow with the DIY Photo Pillow Covers and my Cricut and it looks great in my basket of pillows on my fireplace hearth.
With just a few supplies and handmade decorations, you can transform your home into a cheerful space that ensures brighter carefree days are ahead.
