Screen Porch Decorating Ideas in Navy & White.
Summer arrived in Chicago with a vengeance.
There was no save the date card sent out months in advance. There was no phone call announcing it’s arrival. There was no gentle knock on the door asking if it could come in for a visit …
Oh no.
Summer blew in here yelling and screaming. It barged right in the front door and swept through the house.
Its arrival so sudden. So unexpected. So violent that it caught me off guard.
And left me scrambling to get the screen porch up and running …
And then, as quickly as it had us reaching for the thermostat to crank up the AC, it disappeared. Leaving cooler temps and rain in it’s wake.
Oh, wait, that would be Spring. Which is still making an appearance inside our home. With some apple green and blue …

Though, I do have some pretty coral colored fabrics and tissue paper waiting in the wings. You know, for when Summer decides to return for good …

It’s just gorgeous, Linda! I really love the navy and white. You had me going for a minute there talking about the heat of summer when I know that my stepson’s weather in Wisconsin has been up and down. Hope summer arrives to stay for good soon!

Love it, Linda and it will be there for good soon.

Mmmm! I love your screened porch, Linda! The mix of textures and the cabana stripes… fabulous!!

Maureen says
Yours is one of my favourite screened in rooms and I always look forward to seeing how you have done it up. Once again, looks great! I haven’t even started on my porch with the late season and this will nudge me to get my butt in gear.
Linda says
Thank you so much Maureen! And I’ll fess up that I still have two more seat cushions to make! They are not an easy project and I find that I can’t work on more than one in a day otherwise I get sloppy and careless (and stick myself a lot with pins!).
🙂 Linda
Richella Parham says
Oh! Your porch is just lovely!! What a cool, restful looking space. I love it!
We used to live in Michigan and I remember very well just how much we loved our screened-in porch–although ours was not nearly so lovely as yours!
Linda says
Richella – you are too sweet! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a lovely comment! 🙂 Linda

Just so crisp and clean! I love the navy white and black. I have black furniture and have been looking for black and sand striped chair pads… but your navy or royal blue is gorgeous with black! Thanks for such WONDERFUL inspiration!!! Beautiful living space…but I love everything you do!

Your screened porch looks like a wonderful spot to relax in warm weather. I love your navy pillow collection and curtains over the screens.
My husband grew up in Chicago and often tells me about the crazy weather changes there. I remember visiting his parents in the summer when it was as hot as the blazes!
Jennifer @ Town and Country Living says
Gorgeous, gorgeous porch!!
Vanessa says
Oh Linda your porch is just so, so, so lovely!!! The navy blue pillows are perfect and the only thing that would make it better would be if I was sitting out there with you! 🙂
Allison @ The Golden Sycamore says
I love your porch! And I know the feeling about the weather! I live near Detroit and have had similar weather! It’s been a crazy year for sure! 🙂

love the blue stripes, and we enjoyed some cooler temps this weekend, but the week itself was gross and muggy. i’m hoping by this next weekend it cools down, as we have a wedding to attend. enjoy.
