Inviting Window Accents:

One easy way to help keep your house cool and add a unique design element is to add window coverings like blinds, curtains or shudders to your windows.  Adding window coverings to your windows allows you to add another unique accent to your space and creates a more finished look for you to enjoy. 

For a clean look that's great for reflecting the heat, consider purchasing white window coverings.  Also, remember to keep draperies closed during the hottest part of the day for maximum effectiveness.

Outdoor Floral Accents:

Not surprisingly, the plants and trees that you have planted outside your house can do a lot to make inside your home more comfortable in the hot summer heat.  According to one study, having a few well-placed trees planted outside can save you approximately $100 - $200 annually in cooling costs. 

 Also, by adding more plants, trees and scrubs to your garden, you will reduce the amount of hardscape that decorates your yard. Gravel, cement and rocks radiate heat and can make your house a lot hotter, even after the sun has set and the air is cooler.  Plus, looking out to a garden full of trees and flowers creates a more inviting view from inside your home.
