Today I’m sharing Part I of my summer home tour, and I’ll be back tomorrow with even more spaces to share with you! Today, I’ve teamed up with the lovely Marty at A Stroll Thru Life, along with a crazy talented group of ladies to bring you our tours. If you’re stopping in from Marty’s tour, welcome!

If you’re new here, I’m Sarah – an insurance executive by trade but a home decor enthusiast and blogger pretty much any remaining time I have! My husband and I moved into our home about three and a half years ago and have been updating things room by room and I feel like we’re really close to where we ultimately want things! We’re currently building our dream backyard along with a pool (you can read the latest on the project here), and my summer home decor was certainly inspired by the changes out back!
Welcome to our home!
ENTRYWAY SOURCES: Doxology Canvas (Navy with Gallery Walnut Frame) | Bench (similar) | Console Table | Similar Lamp | Wall Color: Behr Castle Path
This year, I went for an almost sun-bleached look with my favorite colors: blues, greens, neutrals and white. I am definitely loving the calming, beachy vibe these colors bring to the space. I’ve listed sources along the way, including paint colors.
LIVING ROOM SOURCES: Palm Tree Artwork (54″x40″ with the Whitewashed Herringbone frame – c/o Minted) | Wood Clovers (Small & Large) | Fig Leaf Pillows | Turquoise Geometric Pillows | Lamps | Striped Throws | Endless Summer Cook Book | Allegra Hicks Books | Habitat Book | Coffee Table | Glass Bottles | Glass Beads |Â Seagrass Tray (similar) | Paint Color: Behr Castle Path
The dining room stays fairly consistent from season to season, but I found some adorable square navy and white striped plates at HomeGoods recently that I had to dress up for summer!
DINING ROOM SOURCES: Dining Table & Chairs | Buffet Table | Chandelier (looks for less here) | Similar Round Mirror | Similar Abstract Ocean Art | Bar Cart | Rug |  Small Brass Pineapple Tumblers | Large Brass Pineapple Tumblers and Straws | Striped Throw | Similar Wine Glass Racks | Paint Color: Behr Silver Drop | Trim Color: Behr Swiss Coffee
The mud room is the first room we step into from the garage when we get home from work each night and it’s the last space we see when we leave each morning. Therefore, even though the space is still unfinished, I like to add a little character to make it feel a bit more polished. I found these navy and white palm prints at HomeGoods over the weekend and I’m loving the blue they bring into the space!
MUD ROOM SOURCES: Chandelier | Fig Leaf Pillow | Blue and White Lumbar Pillow (HomeGoods) | Similar Striped Throw | Similar Palm Prints | Similar Faux Greenery | Paint Color: Behr Dolphin Fin at 50% | Shiplap and Shelf color: Kilz Primer 😉
Our courtyard was one of the areas where I decided to take things quite a bit more saturated since it’s outdoors, but you can see I still stuck with the same overall  color scheme.
COURTYARD SOURCES: Chairs & Firepit Set | Embroidered Pillows | Seersucker Napkins | Plates | Chargers | Bowls | Striped Throws | Stemless Wineglasses

I love the soft muted colors you have for this season, so pretty. Everything just flows from room to room. Can’t wait to see how the pool is coming along too. Thanks so much for joining the 2016 Home Tours.
I’m also loving blue this season, it works so well with green, so calm. The prints you added to the mudroom are so pretty. Love your home!
I love it! If I could rent a beach house to spend the summer in, I’d want it to look exactly like your home. So calming and refreshing. I especially love the living room and mud room pillow combos. You have such an eye for textiles. Can’t wait to see the pool results!
So pretty, Sarah! Love all the gorgeous muted colors!
Very serene! Love the blues and greens! xo
Beautiful tour! I love your pops of blue and green! 😉
Oh that Palm Tree canvas is fabulous. All of your summery touches are perfection!

Sarah, your home is always full of fun inspiration no matter the season, but your Summer home is just so lovely, relaxed and cozy! Such an honor to share this home tour with you! CHEERS!
Everything is just gorgeous as always! Love your outdoor space, so pretty!
Love it all!! Beautiful, refreshing spaces.

Your home is beautiful Sarah! I can never get tired of your entryway/hall. I just love it! And the cool colors are so relaxing 🙂 Can’t wait to see what you do with the rest of your pool/yard!
Beautiful Sarah, it’s the perfect balance of sophisticated and summer casual! I love your pretty new pillow combos! 🙂
So, so pretty Sarah! I can always count on you for the best beachy vibes eye candy! I love the fig throw pillows (well all the pillows really)! Once the pool is finished, I’m coming over 😉
It looks beautiful! I love the Minted art, and those pineapple tumblers are awesome! I need some!
Sarah your whole house is gorgeous! I love the blues and greens you are using this season, so fresh and pretty!
Love your home Sarah! All those beachy cool colors are perfect for the summer! You always have such great photos too. Happy Summer!
Loved it Sarah! So fresh and inviting! I recently did a post on using botanicals in your home – so I absolutely adored all the green in your artwork, pillows, and, of course, plants!!!
Girl. You are so talented. I love every single space. Especially that entry with the darling palm pillow lantern. What a beautiful home. xo
Hello!
Pinterest brought me to your page in search of your bar cart! The link doesn’t work to find where it’s from, any chance you still have that information?
Thank you!
It was actually from Target a few years ago and I don’t believe they carry it any longer. Sorry!
