Decorate your home this summer with a touch of Americana! Explore these farmhouse patriotic decor ideas for rustic, primitive charm celebrating the 4th of July and Memorial Day holidays.

Farmhouse Patriotic Decor Ideas

Despite calls for it to be over and done with, farmhouse style decor still remains as popular as ever.

With it’s calming color schemes and weathered decorative objects, farmhouse decor makes the perfect backdrop for the red, white and blue shades of patriotic decorations.

If you like a rustic, primitive, vintage, “Americana” look to your Memorial Day and 4th of July decorations, then you’ll want to check out these farmhouse patriotic decor ideas!

Let’s start with some ways to decorate inside of your house with patriotic farmhouse decor.

Patriotic Farmhouse Throw Pillows

Throw pillows and covers are an easy way to decorate for the holidays and seasons. I love that you can easily change out pillow covers – they’re easy to store as well.

Farmhouse style patriotic throw pillows can really add a nice touch of red, white and blue to your living room, entryway seating or anywhere you might have a chair. Look for rustic prints in faded red, white and blue color schemes.

American flag throw pillows are easy to find on the market these days. I like the idea of pairing them with decorative red, white and blue fabrics such as what’s shown in the photo above.

Patriotic Farmhouse Throw Blankets

Another easy farmhouse patriotic decor idea is to use patriotic throw blankets in your living room, family room or as a pop of color on your bed.

In the photo above, a rustic flag blanket creates a nice touch against this farmhouse living room couch. If your farmhouse living room is decorated in neutral shades, then the red, white and blue colors of a throw blanket will really stand out for the summer holidays.

Patriotic Farmhouse Quilts

A similar farmhouse patriotic decor idea is to use patriotic quilts for decorations instead of or in addition to red, white and blue throw blankets.

There is something very rustic and Americana about quilts. If your home is already decorated in a farmhouse style, you might already have a few quilts that you use for decorations.

Consider adding a patriotic farmhouse quilt to your collection to be used in the summer months.

Farmhouse American Flag Wall Hangings & Artwork

Another good way to incorporate patriotic decorations into your farmhouse decor is to use red, white and blue wall hangings.

Wall hangings are a great alternative to paintings or art prints. Because of the texture of the materials, they go well with rustic, farmhouse decorations.

In the photo above, a primitive American flag wall hanging is featured in this farmhouse style living room. Colorful blankets and throw pillows help complete the look.

Another patriotic farmhouse decor idea is to hang a framed American flag in your home during the summer months, or even year round.

For a true farmhouse feel, look for vintage style American flags that feature weathered looking fabric.

Patriotic Farmhouse Mantel Decorations

Does your living room have a fireplace mantel that you can decorate for various holidays and seasons? If so, consider decorating it with rustic red, white and blue decorations during the summer months for a patriotic vibe.

In the photo above, pip berry garland is paired with string lights across the top of the mantel. Rustic American flag themed decorations along with taper candles help complete the look.

Another item that works well on fireplace mantels is primitive, patriotic bunting or garland. You can find half circle bunting, banner bunting or garland at craft stores and online.

If you are short on time, but still want to decorate for 4th of July, consider hanging a strand of red, white and blue flag garland across your mantel, such as what’s shown in the photo above.

Farmhouse Patriotic Decor Vignettes

If you have flat surface area you like to decorate for the seasons and holidays, consider creating a patriotic farmhouse vignette.

Vignettes don’t have to be complicated or fancy. In the photo above, small, primitive American flags are grouped together in a vase with rustic star decorations and placed in front of a small mirror.

Remember that vignettes often work well with three decorative objects grouped together. It’s important to factor in the height of the decorative objects as well.

For example, the vase of farmhouse style fabric flowers shown in the photo above would look cute paired with coffee table books and a rustic candle for a patriotic, country themed vignette.

Rustic Metal Boxes For Primitive Patriotic Decorations

Another item that can work well for primitive patriotic vignettes is a rustic box or trunk. These antiques can be fun to search for at yard sales, antique malls or on eBay.

If you’re crafty, you can paint one with a red, white and blue flag theme such as what’s shown in the photo above.

I like to use boxes and crates like this on a fireplace hearth, on the front porch or tucked into a corner of the room that needs some decorations.

Weathered American Flags In Flower Pots

Let’s move onto some ways you can decorate the outside of your house with farmhouse patriotic decor.

One easy thing to do is to place rustic American flags inside of planters that you might have on your front porch or back deck.

If you’re using terracotta flower pots such as what’s shown in the photo above, then the vintage style flags will add to the weathered look creating country farmhouse vibes.

Rustic Patriotic Bunting For Outdoor Fences

Another way to decorate outside for 4th of July or Memorial Day is to use farmhouse style bunting or garland along a fence or across your front porch or deck.

I mentioned using bunting and garland inside, strung across your fireplace mantel. But bunting will also work well as an outdoor decoration. It’s easy enough to hang before a party or before the holidays.

To make it look farmhouse style, look for bunting and garland in faded, muted red, white and blue colors.

Rustic Wooden Outdoor Flag Decor

If you’re into farmhouse or rustic style decorations, then you can’t go wrong with displaying a wooden US flag on your front porch, deck or along a fence in your yard.

These DIY flags are usually made out of scrap wood or old pallets and can be really pretty to show. Many of them are quite large in size, which is great for front patriotic front porch ideas as you want the decorations to take up some space.

Check out Pinterest for some DIY patriotic wood flag ideas. If you’re not handy, consider purchasing one from a seller on Etsy.

Wooden Pallets For Farmhouse Patriotic Decorations

Similar to wooden US flags are flags created from old pallets such as the one shown in the photo above.

Pallet wood is popular with farmhouse themed decor and this is a fun way to incorporate pallet wood into your patriotic decorations.

You can paint a flag onto the pallet as is. But for a more complete look, consider adding extra wood strips to the pallet first to cover in the gaps. This will give you extra wood to work with when painting the stripes.

Primitive Red, White & Blue Painted Fence

Speaking of paint, another idea is to paint a fence in your yard in celebration of the US summer holidays. Painted fences have a very country vibe to them and work well with farmhouse themed houses.

If you like the idea of a painted fence, but don’t want the paint to last year round, consider using temporary spray paint, chalk paint or just chalk to make your fence red, white and blue for the summer.

Rustic Metal Outdoor Patriotic Decorations

Finally, consider hanging a rustic metal sign or flag on your front porch in celebration of the 4th of July or Memorial Day holidays.

Weathered metal is very much used in farmhouse decor, and works well for outdoor decorations that will be exposed to the elements. In the photo above, a metal heart shaped flag adds a nice touch to a wall on a back deck.
