Decorating Your Lake Home
Your lake home should be a place that is warm, friendly, inviting, and relaxing. Here are a few ideas to enhance your lake living space:
- When painting, use warm to neutral colors to set the tone for an inviting atmosphere. These colors may also be a bit rustic to remind you that you are at the lake. Examples browns, olives, burgundy’s, red’s
- Use natural wood frames and furniture when possible to bring the outdoors into your living space.
- Be sure to not cover windows that look out onto the lake; instead, use a valance or drape fabric at the top of the window.
- Use plenty of accent lamps on end tables or let them stand freely when lighting at night. This will create a somber relaxing mood.
- Add plenty of throw pillows and blankets for the extra guests that you will have.
- Use pictures of the lake, fishing, and water-skiing to complete your decorating.
