Americana Styles for Summer (and Beyond!)

As the Fourth of July approaches and our thoughts are filled with waving flags and fireworks, we can't help but be drawn to Americana looks and styles. We loved 20 Ways to Add Americana-Style to Your Home by HGTV and Farima Alavi, and can't wait to use a few carol & frank accents and our favorite bedding to bring some Americana flair to our summer.

Try out these carol & frank styles with these creative Americana looks picked by HGTV.

Carter Tomato

The patriotic look on the left pairs perfectly with one of our handcrafted pillows: Carter. The bold red of Carter Tomato gives your room a real pop, plus you can coordinate it with the Breck bedding collection to lay a simple yet stylish foundation for your modern Americana bed.

Classic Patterns

We love finding inspiration in everyday colors and styles. Try a contemporary update on a classic pattern in your living room with the blue houndstooth of Langford (right). You can even coordinate it with a unique houndstooth ottoman to really make a statement! (LEGO art optional, of course)

Everyone loves a good Fourth of July barbeque, and the handcrafted Carter tabletop collection makes it easy to transform your table with one-of-a-kind style. Burgers, hot dogs, lemonade and corn on the cob? Yes please!

These looks stay stylish all year long, so don't be afraid to go all in with your patriotic spirit this July. Unlike those Christmas lights you always forget to take down, Americana décor is perfect for every season.

So get inspired this summer, enjoy your Independence Day celebrations, and light a sparkler for us!
