Memorial Day is a week away, Flag Day is June 14, Independence Day is a little over a month away, and we’re in the middle of a pretty interesting election year. With all the upcoming patriotic events, I thought I’d share some inspiration from Houzz on decorating with red, white, and blue! I think it’s a fun look for the upcoming summer months.
Red, white, and blue look crisp and clean in this nautical style family room. Sometimes all you need to add a patriotic touch is a few pillows, especially a vintage flag pillow!
This dining nook gets a little patriotic flair with red and blue pillows, yet it’s not so over-the-top that you have to change out the decor once 4th of July has come and gone.
I love this kitchen!! I love the huge island, red bar stools, and hardwood floor. I love the classic blue willow china above the stove. I love the red hutch on the side and the windows that let in plenty of natural light. I could be very happy in this red, white, and blue kitchen. Do you like it too?
A single framed flag packs a patriotic punch in any room when decorating with red, white, and blue.
A light-filled room makes dramatic use of the color red, mixed with white and a little blue.
Another framed flag makes its appearance in this country style living room with its weathered wood ceiling and rustic walls. Oversized pillows add comfort and a patriotic touch.
Why stop at one framed flag? This cheerful family room enjoys a gallery wall of ’em! Plenty of white keeps the room fresh while a nautical rope chandelier hangs overhead.
Red, white, and blue look great in a nautical style bedroom. Fun life preservers add whimsy while sweet quilts add softness and homestyle charm. A basket filled with flags stand ready to wave at a holiday parade.
Have you ever considered painting a ceiling a dark color? This blue ceiling reflects the blue of the bedding below. The large flag on the wall creates an striking graphic element.

Decorating with red, white, and blue can be fun, as evidenced in this classic coastal style bedroom. You can’t go wrong with striped bedding, and the red blanket adds a nice pop of color.
The softer side of patriotic decorating makes its appearance in this pretty sunroom. Throws and pillows add red, white, and blue to this traditional sunroom.
A porch is a great place to add a touch of red, white, and blue. Perfect all summer long!
