Decorative essentials for your summer in Jávea
San Juan, just around the corner, kicks off the summer in Jávea. The natives move to the country houses and on the other hand, many visitors return to their second homes in Jávea to rest after a harsh winter.
Whether you are from the first group or the second, we propose a list of decorative accessories so that your house in Jávea gives off that summer aroma that we do not always get:
- Decorative outdoor lighting: LED garlands are not just for Christmas. In summer they will give a festive air to your terrace and will raise many points among the neighborhood. You can find them in many places online. In Leroy Merlin you have a lot of variety, with different shapes and shapes, and you can also opt for the solar ones, which are recharged with sunlight during the day (in the image, pineapple garland). You can also create a beautiful atmosphere with candles, whether they are the usual ones or if you have children, you can try Ikea LED candles. It is not the same, but they give the hit.
- Tropical motifs: even though we are in the Mediterranean, tropical prints always have that exotic point that catches us. Nor does your house need to be the botanical garden, or fill it with flamingos, pineapples and monsteras as if there were no tomorrow. But you can update the usual sofa with a tropical cushion or put some details in the garden (in the photo, toucan skewers from Casa Shops). But be careful, this year what they take are toucans! You can choose between different matching cushions and plaids at Maisons du Monde.
- Baskets, baskets and accessories made of wicker and natural fibers: esparto grass, wicker, rattan and jute provide that natural and very Mediterranean touch that we love. You have them at the click of a button in many online decoration stores. But we suggest that you take a tour of Cestería Roig (Jávea) or Gata de Gorgos, a neighboring town to Jávea and with a great artisan tradition where you will find many shops dedicated to esparto grass. In photography, façade and products from Cestería Roig.
- Inflatables: if you have a pool, surely you cannot succumb to one of these colored XL size inflatables. They will be the stars of your pool... and of your Instagram! This year unicorns will give way to parrots, peacocks and other exotic motifs, such as pineapples or cacti. Get one of them at Casa Shops (in the photograph) or at the Arenal shops.
- Outdoor plants: if you have not been there during the winter, you will surely need to replace some of the plants in your garden or terrace. We recommend Mediterranean shrubs such as myrtle, laurel, or also rosemary or lavender. You can also opt for basil or citronella, which help repel annoying mosquitoes. You can go to one of the many nurseries in Jávea and they will advise you. Most of them are also open on weekends. In Montgó Verd, in addition to making your purchases, both plants and pots, garden furniture or outdoor or garden accessories, you can enjoy a meal, aperitif, or breakfast in its bar, surrounded by all the plants, as you can see in the picture.
As you can see, with a modest budget it is easy to refresh your outdoor decoration. A little imagination and enjoy the summer!
