A Few Summer Decorating Ideas and Changes

 Though Summer is in full swing....I've not changed my home decor much since spring, but recently I did add in a few things that feel like summer to me.....

With a few blue hydrangeas being in bloom in my little garden area, I decided to bring some of my faux ones inside and add them to the side table in our living room....



I added the Fresh Flower Market sign, little wheel barrow and the ceramic English tea house that I already had on hand....the garden bunny tray has been here since spring, but since I love seeing bunnies year round, and brown ones visit our yard, I wanted to leave it out for summertime too....

In my antique card collection I found this beautiful old postcard from the early 1900's, it looked like summertime to me, so I set it out beside my vintage teacup and tea tin on the living room side table...


In the kitchen on my small garden shelf I added a few bee related items for summer...


The Avon Bee Skep jar is one I already had, the tea towel was a Goodwill find for $1.99 and the Bee Skep Honey Jar was a recent indoor flea market find for $1


The Ladybug Pitcher was a recent indoor flea market find, it's made in Italy and was only $4...

Not much has changed for Summertime in the sitting room.... 

Other than I've added the colorful cotton patchwork quilt to the back of the sofa...it's actually a fabric shower curtain that I found recently at Goodwill for $5.99, (it is in like new condition).


Emma and George are really loving it....



I am too...I've always loved the look of patchwork quilts....I think it's fun to look at all of the pretty designs on them... I'm glad I brought this home with me, because it fits right in with what I already had going on in here in the sitting room, and it adds a lot of color too....

I didn't change out what I've had on the fireplace mantle since spring, but for a little change I decided to use this beautiful Vintage Crewel Embroidered Picture instead of the tray, for summertime....it's a yard sale find that I found last spring, and I think it's perfect for what I've already got going on in here in the sitting room...I love that it fits right in with my summer garden theme in here....





Well, that's how things are looking right now...I hope you are enjoying the summer!
Until next time....
Stay creative and have a beautiful day!
