Fortunately, you can easily bring this look into any space. We found it on everything from utensils and napkins to vases and lamps, in shades that mimic the relaxed tones of summer. Have a look at some of our favorite finds:
Closed Mondays Jewelry Tray , $25 each
Corral your jewelry and accessories in this functional tray that also serves as an objet d’art. We love the fun gradients of color that line the bottom and sides of each piece.
