I find that the more time we spend outside, the more the inside of my home starts to feel like summer too.The feeling of coming inside into the cool house when you’ve been outside in the sun all day?

That’s a big part of our impression of home during the summer too!Your home becomes a bit of a cool and shady oasis at times on really hot days..This year, our garden has become almost like our second living room because we’ve just been out there so much!.

I’m really just in love with it this year!It’s kind of a place that we all gravitate too.
