Farmhouse Summer Decor

I am not one to completely change my decor for a holiday or season...well except Christmas (and that is borderline too over the top). I keep things fairly simple mainly switching out a couple of pillows here and there....For summertime I keep everything a little patriotic.

Here in my kitchen I have added a fern to my kitchen table and stuck little American flags in it.

These pillows and the table runner were a wedding present from Pottery Barn. I still love them so much. It keeps everything very simple but adds a touch of summertime to the kitchen.

On my back porch i had Nantucket Blue Hydrangeas to some large urn style pots that I have. I was nervous about them not lasting or doing very good.... but they are beautiful AND thriving in the pot. My plan is to transplant them to the ground next fall and then add mums.

And i stuck a little flag in both of those pots too.

A peak at our landscaping waiting to be done.... I got the hydrangeas in the ground, but I am having my little boxwood hedge planted professionally.... And this lne of boxwoods goes right on front of my kitchen windows. I can not wait until it's all done.

I got this basket at Nell Hill's last fall. These are silk red geraniums and I have added a couple more flags.

I know it's a lot of flags everywhere but I promise it doesn't look tacky. :)

Front porch seating... Two white adirondack chairs and a red geranium in between on a little table.

What's more American than flags and a Golden Retriever.  

AHHH... It's perfection.

That blue ceiling.... It never gets old.

My sweet girl, Molly

Between the garage doors I have one large pot with a planted boxwood and it's full of red petunias... Soon they will spill over the edge and fall down the front of the planter.

My favorite shot...  

Happy Summer everyone! My farmer is still working on trying to get some beans in the ground so that's our main focus... I hope you all have a fun summer. I will be back tomorrow with summer sangria....YUM
