July Porch Decor – The Art of Americana

July Porch Decor – The Art of Americana

This post was sponsored by Wayfair

Happy 4th Y’all! I love to decorate my front porch for the seasons and the holidays. My July Porch Decor is always fun and celebratory. This year I want to add a little Patriotic Art into the mix. Do you place artwork on your porches?

Patriotic July Porch Decor Elements

America the Beautiful Art

Since I am a Wayfair Homemaker, I headed to Wayfair.com to find the right art and accessories. When I saw this ‘America the Beautiful’ Textual Art Print on Canvas, I had my focal point and my theme – America the Beautiful! The song has always been a favorite of mine…so this was a no-brainer. I just love that it has a navy blue background. It measures 20″ by 16″ so it fit perfectly in this space.

July Porch Flag Pillow

Next, I started looking for the perfect pillow to add to my patriotic theme. When I found this USA Flag Cotton Throw Pillowwith its slightly faded look, I was thrilled. I liked it even better when I opened the delivery box. It is just my style – rustic with a bit of pizazz. The pillow behind the flag stays on the porch. It is a Bonjour Cotton Throw Pillow Cover that says ‘Bonjour’ on the front. I just flip it to the back when necessary.

I needed something to hold my drinks and other July 4th items for entertaining. So I found this delightful 3-Tier Metal Rolling Cart that fits perfectly beside my glider. Oh how I love my glider!

The glider of course is from Wayfair – Outdoor Patio Glider Bench. I have many hours of joy in this spot with an iced tea or a hot cup of tea. Click here to see the full story of the glider.

Of course, I can’t neglect the front door. Since I live on a tiny island in Florida, flip flops are year round footwear. I found these lovelies a few years ago and they grace the door or gate to say, “Come on in and rest y’all!”

Flags are a must. I pick up a few every year and stick them in a plant or use them to decorate the 4th table. They always make me smile. I’m wishing you a happy 4th of July full of watermelon, hot dogs, and fireworks! I would appreciate a pin of this image below if you liked the post! SMOOCHES.
