When I think of summer I think of time spent outdoors and summer fresh food like fruits, vegetables and a plethora of summer salads. When I’m not outside, I’m spending summer days in the kitchen canning tomatoes, making potato salad, cutting up watermelon, and more. I like to keep my kitchen bright and airy through the warmer months of the year.
My Summer Inspiration Decor always involves bringing flowers from the garden into my farmhouse.
I know I was talking about fruits and vegetables earlier, but I always have a soft spot for a pretty cupcake and a cool glass of iced coffee.
There’s a new cupcake and dessert bakery not too far from where I live called The Sugar Path. Their confections are always picture perfect and taste so yummy too! I’m so glad they opened up shop.
A Lady Jane cupcake is on the left while Blackberry Syrah is on the right. They’re both fabulous!
And this one … is a S’mores Cupcake that’s amazingly tasty and almost too perfect to eat!
More pink hydrangeas provide Summer Inspiration Decor on the farmhouse table.
I found a French enamel pot to hold one of these beautiful summer flowers.
Would you like to pull up a chair and join me for a pretty cupcake and glass of iced coffee in my farmhouse kitchen with its summer inspiration decor?

Summer is all about color and fun and I’ve been attempting to infuse these two elements into my home room by room. Although I love white I have to admit I’m enjoying a few jolts of color. As part of today’s “Fun in the Sun” blog hop with 10 other bloggers, I decided to share…
Since my teen years I’ve been a collector of vintage books. I love their colors, their decorative colors, and the musty smell of old book pages. It’s hard for me to resist running my fingers over them at the flea market, and once I interact with them, they’re likely to come home with me. My…
People often ask why I like to decorate with white, and the answer is simple. Besides the fact that I love the color white and feel it always looks fresh and clean … you can easily change up the look and feel of a white room from season to season by adding beautiful color and pattern…
When I was first married, I decorated our little rental home with Asian influences. I loved ginger jars, oriental paintings, and black lacquered furniture. My sister on the other hand, was decorating in country style and the more she talked about it, the more I was drawn to it, too. Country style decorating has evolved…
