The Ultimate Roundup Of Summer Home Decor

Decor | August 3, 2019

It has been so much fun incorporating summer decor in our home this year. I chose to use lots of greenery (real and faux), lightweight textures, and farmhouse style accent pieces that reflected a welcoming summer feeling. I also loved seeing how others decorated their homes for summer. I know you will walk away inspired by all of this beautiful summer home decor.

II kicked off the early summer days with a warm and welcoming home tour that you can take here. I added some fun blue-ticking pillows (found here) perfect for summer and a lightweight blanket. I like the “less is more” look for summer. Also, I added splashes of yellow with a lemon wreath I made from a garland. It is easy to take the two ends of a garland you may already have on hand and create a circle, wrapping each end under the other. I shared how to style a summer mantel in three easy steps here, that also utilizes lemons, woods, and whites. Using greenery you already have on hand for bringing life into your home is free and easy! Creating ambiance with light layers, including lines, and having on hand a glass of cold lemonade are sure to make your family and friends smile when they are in your home.

As summer progressed, I swapped out some pieces to specifically focus on adding patriotic summer decor. I shared our full patriotic home tour here and also how to add summer decor to your front porch here. Late June and through early July is the perfect time to add patriotic decor to your home. My take on patriotic decor includes flags, a DIY burlap liberty banner (tutorial here), and other red/white/blue accessories. By adding these pieces, you will easily create a time-worn, farmhouse-style outdoor space that is sure to be warm and welcoming over those festive summertime weeks!

Janine from Happy Happy Nester shared her happy home tour here. I loved seeing all the ways she added flowers to her spaces. Her homegrown hydrangeas were such a great way to add summer decor to her home basically for free! With additional splashes of pink through pillows and blankets, she carried that bright feeling from her fresh flowers into other home decor elements. I love how beautiful it all looks, and I’m thinking pink is in my color plans for next summer at our home!
