It’s gonna be a gooooood week!
I am mere days (2 to be exact!) from summer break, and I am happy dancing my way through them. As summer approaches, I am creating a to-do list of blog and photography-related items to complete. Nothing makes my type-A personality more happy than crossing items off of a to-do list. Nothing.
The Hoffs are planning a jam-packed summer, but it will be nice to have some downtime too. I say that, but then when I have downtime, Â I just want to be busy doing something.
I threw together this summer living room in like five minutes while Miss L. was occupied watching Peppa Pig. (Do you know Peppa? She’s the funniest little British pig, and it’s one of the only kids’ tv shows that I don’t mind watching…or listening to while I take pictures of my house.) 😉
Wild irises are growing all over the place out in the country, and I couldn’t resist picking just a few that were growing along the side of the road the other day.
They add the perfect little pop of yellow, and I may go back and pick a few more when they need to be replaced.
 Have a great day! 😉

Your room looks so inviting!!! I like the relax pillow! Where did you get the mirror hanging on the door? You have awsome talent!! Thank you for sharing 🙂
April Hoff says
Thank you, Stephanie! The mirror (and the Relax pillow and the wood tray) are all from Kirklands! 😉
Erin Prohaska says
Absolutely beautiful April! You have such a great eye! I’m in the market for a rug and having trouble pulling the trigger. Can you let me know if you’re happy with yours, if it’s comfy and if so, where it’s from? I love the neutral chevron pattern. Thanks SO much! Happy summer! :
April Hoff says
Thank you, Erin. The rug is the Jute Chenille Herringbone Rug from West Elm. It’s VERY soft and comfortable, and it’s perfect for a living space! I love it! 😉
Jenny @ Refresh Living says
Your living room looks ready for summer, but I know you are probably even more ready! Congrats on another year! This week was our first week off, and I think I kept myself even busier with all those projects on my to-do list. It’s funny how that works, more free time sure gets sucked up quickly for all of us that can’t sit still!
April Hoff says
Thanks so much, Jenny! It feels so good to be done! 😉
Shawna says
Your room is so restful! I love it!
and yes – I love peppa too! and her little brother george and suzy sheep and danny dog
Kristy says
I love the pillows with the flower type print. Where did you get them? Thanks!
April Hoff says
Thanks, Kristy! They are from Target. 😉
Carrie says
Hello! Your living room is so cozy and beautiful! Can you tell me where you got all of your pillows on your couch? Thanks!
April Hoff says
Thank you, Carrie! The solid blue are from Meijer, the white with jute trim are pillow covers from Hobby Lobby, and the printed ones are from Target…the “relax” pillow is from Kirklands. 😉
Natalie says
Perfect summer room that is inviting and relaxing. 5 minutes though? I haven’t been able to put together my living room in 2 years! Can I ask where you got those bluish pillows that are solid with the dark brown button in front? I love them! And the white ones with a tan border?
April Hoff says
Ha! Well, I had all of the decor, I just threw it all together on the couch in five min! 😉 It has taken me years to get my living room the way I like it. 😉 The pillows you are referring to are from Meijer.
Aimee says
Love your living room! Do you have the link to get those floral Target pillows? Can’t seem to find them!
Thanks!
April Hoff says
Thank you, Aimee! No, I don’t have a link. I got them last January, and I’m not sure they even still sell them…? 🙂
Melissa Archer says
April this room is so gorgeous. I love so many things about it, including your coffee table! Where’d you get it from?
April Hoff says
Thank you, Melissa! It’s a garage sale coffee table made-over. If you search coffee table on the side bar, it will pop right up! 😉
Kori says
I love your summer living room!! What paint color is on your walls? So pretty!
April Hoff says
Thank you, Kori! The color is “Vapor Trails” by Benjamin Moore.
Hope says
Looks great! I’m looking for a similar mirror, not the hanging one-next to the lamp with white trim? Donde?? Por favor! 🙂
I’m a teacher too! And a NEW mom!! 🙂 🙂
April Hoff says
Thanks, Hope! Congrats on being a new mom! How exciting! It is a mirror from Goodwill that I painted. It was a good find! 😉

Hi! This is adorable! My mom saw it and is obsessed with the patterned pillows. Where did you find those?! Thanks! 🙂
