Okay, it's official. Today is the last day of summer, and it's certainly been a great one! It's been a summer of so many laughs and special moments. What I want to focus on today, though is all of the fantastic home tours we had the pleasure of experiencing this season.
## JUNE
Kicking it off, we've gotthe reveal of my backyard makeover and pool house. Needless to say, this was a project that was near and dear to my heart, and I was a pretty happy guy the day I got to share it with all of you.

Up next, though not technically a home tour, this post showcasing a variety of rooms with the third and final installment of _Gray Malin at the Parker_ was really a favorite of mine. I know I say this all the time, but I really do LOVE seeing how people incorporate my work into their lives. It's such a joy to see the contrasting decor styles and choices people make with their print selection.
As we segwayed into our big 30% off sale of summer, which also kicked off July 4th celebrations, we highlighted this beach stunner's home in Los Angeles.

Up next, it's my home away from home in Montauk. The Surf Lodge is one of my favorite escapes in the Hamptons, and I am also very proud to be the only artist's work featured exclusively in their rooms. Here I am with the dazzling interior designer, Fiona Byrne, who was instrumental in tapping me as the featured artist in Surf Lodge's rooms.

I love how grandious her living room is with the high ceilings and earth tone colors, which provides the perfect canvas for the pop of color her print brings to the room.
## JULY
July was a big month for celebrating our summer collaborations, including: Sperry, Ladurée as well as officially kicking off our special beach print coffee cup sleeves with LA's finest, Alfred's. This is not to say there wasn't a spectacular home tour shared, though. In fact, we got to check out a dear (high school) friend of mine's home, who also happens to be an extremely talented designer and owner of Biscuit Home. Bailey's ecclectic style is one to aspire to!
## AUGUST
The first tour of August was actually of an office, rather than a home. Take a look at how this chic NYC Public Relations firm brought the breezes of Italy into their urban work space.
To begin our first day of Free Framing, our last big sale of the season, we revisted Jordan of Ramshackle Glam, who was first featured in a Home Tour way back in 2015. She had just moved into her Northern California home at the time with her husband and two little ones. Needless to say, a lot can happen in two years, which Jordan caught us up on as well as took us on a tour of her growing Gray Malin collection.

Day one of September, we had the pleasure to touring the Los Angeles abode of Nicolette Mason. Ilove the way she styled her print from the Aqua Glam series. Everything really comes together in this room! Be sure to head up stairs, though where you'll find a couple more splashes of summer.
Last...but certainly not least, we finished off summer with a tour withour newest member to this world, Baby Leo's Nursery Safari.
Wow! Quite a collection, don't you think? It was so fun and inspiring getting to see all of these personal spaces of such incredible people. I hope you all enjoyed the tours as much as I did! Let me know...which ones your favorite on @graymalin.
Cheers
