Modern Farmhouse Summer Decor: Must-Haves

Let’s start with the outside. If you’ve read our Magnolia Mania posts, you know that church pews are something Joanna Gaines uses often. For your modern farmhouse summer decor, it’s the perfect time to paint those porch pews a bright orangey-red. What a sight they are for tired eyes! Add some fun pillows and you’ll have everyone spending their afternoons hanging out there. See how easy it is to make your own outdoor pillows here.

Another way to add summer decor to your modern farmhouse is to paint the shutters in a bright color. I’ve seen modern farmhouses with red shutters, and others with bright blue shutters the same shade as the summer sky. Whichever summer color you choose, you can’t go wrong!

Inside your modern farmhouse, summer decor is as easy as thinking of your favorite summer things and incorporating them into your decor. Love a good straw hat in the summer? Hang one in the entryway.

A lovely metal bucket painted in a pretty shade of light blue is the perfect spot for your favorite summertime blooms. Keep it filled all summer long with a variety of summer flowers and plants.

I absolutely love this summer dining room table decor! Green apples are such a pretty accent for the centerpiece. And what a lovely idea to incorporate that apple green into the dishware and napkins! Pick your favorite summer fruit and use it as the theme for your own modern farmhouse dining table.

I can’t say enough about this farmhouse fireplace and mantle, adorned in all the best colors of summer. This is an excellent example of how easy and simple your summer decor can be. The assortment of brightly colored bud vases is just so appealing on the white mantel. It screams summer!

So go ahead, grab your favorite summer decor inspirations–flowers, fruit and colors–and look for ways to incorporate them into your modern farmhouse summer decor. Home is going to feel so fresh and fun!
