Patriotic Pillow Talk on the Porch

Let's talk about decorating with pillows.    It's one of the easiest and budget friendly ways to add seasonal or holiday touches to your existing decor.

I don't buy decorative pillows any longer.....just covers for the pillows I already have on hand.   I have several drawers of covers but no longer have to find a way to store tons of pillows.      I also like to buy my covers in sets of 4 that have the same theme....and I usually get them on Amazon for under $20 a set.

When I ran across this set of 4 covers on Amazon I absolutely fell in love with them.   It's so hard to find Patriotic covers that have pastel colors that make them a better fit for my decorating style.

This cover is my personal favorite......

The pillow cover with the bicycle is a close second.....

 

Now to move on around the porch and take a look at the other 2 pillow covers..... 

The Patriotic gnomes are toooo cute.....

Roses are my favorite flower,   but I really like poppies too.

And last but not least......

A Patriotic floral design in a mason jar....love it.     Sometimes when they make you buy 4 at a time,   not all of them are great prints.    But.   I think in this case they are all winners ....don't you!

Remember the big farmhouse table that H made for the front porch?    Well,  we found that it wasn't getting as much use here as it used to so we moved it to another location.     I'll have a post coming up with all the details soon.

We found that when we entertained,    our guests liked to move around the porch....plate in hand....and visit with everyone.    They didn't seem to like being confined to a seat at the table so we decided to move it out and make small little cozy places to sit, eat, and visit.

I kept the decor on the end tables and coffee table to a minimum so there would be plenty of room to set plates or drinks.

We also have seating right off the porch and also around the yard.    I plan to share some of that seating in future posts to give you guys some idea's on how to handle larger crowds   
 
Thank you so much for stopping by today.....and everyday!   hugs
