Welcome to my summer home tour! I’d like to first thank Marty at A Stroll Through Life for once again organizing this fabulous event!
If you’re here from Life & Home at 2012, welcome to my humble little abode. And I have to say I love everything in Vel’s home including her kitchen. Oh, her kitchen! That is like double love! Make sure you check it out …
and now on to my summer tour!
Let’s face it, it was only a matter of time.
I mean, the moment I rolled that first coat of navy the walls we all knew that one day … some day … I would get there.
I mean here.
Sure I’ve flirted with pink. And green. And brown. And coral. And lavender.
There was even a hint of it one Christmas.
Maybe I was even avoiding the inevitable …
the inevitable red white & blue.
So this year … finally … I have embraced it. Red white & blue in the living room ….
… red white & blue in the dining room …
… and on the back screen porch.
For more summer decorating ideas, be sure to visit the other bloggers on the tour. Starting with the fabulous Summer at Simple Stylings.
And here’s the full line-up …

You know what they say, ” birds of the same feather…”, love that we have the same color scheme this year Linda, but for sure your version is inevitable with the blue walls and the rug, it’s just a perfect color combo! Thank you for the kind intro but this year I did not share my kitchen since it is a mess! Lol! As always, so honored to share this home tour with you dear! Cheers!

Oh my word, I love your blue walls and then this year the addition of the red is absolutely gorgeous. So pretty and just the perfect color scheme for your home. You do this combo proud. Thanks so much for joining the tour, your home is so fabulous.

I love your dining chairs! Do you have a source for them?
Linda says
Thank you! I got them many, many years ago from Room & Board. These are similar but I do see some differences in the design: http://www.roomandboard.com/catalog/dining/chairs/thatcher-chair

You really can’t beat this color combination–the walls are simply gorgeous. Thanks for sharing!
Sam says
What color blue and white did you use? Looks wonderful.
Linda says
I’m assuming you’re asking about the colors on the walls? The navy is Sherwin Williams Naval and the white I think is just Sherwin Williams white. Hope that helps!
