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’ve placed pink hydrangeas around the kitchen and set 3 of them in mason jars in the kitchen windows.
Pink Hydrangeas add pops of summer color in the kitchen.
We recently added the open shelving in the kitchen and I’m having fun loading it up with white ironstone.
In the dining nook of my farmhouse kitchen, I’ve set a table for an afternoon summer snack.
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?
