Since the 4th of July is right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to do a roundup of red, white, and blue for the home.

It actually sounds like a tricky color palette, doesn't it? After all, if you're into more modern decor, you probably don't want your home to resemble a flag.

Red, White, and Blue Decor Ideas

Here are a few tips for successfully decorating your home with red, white, and blue:

• A little goes a long way, so start small. You can always add more.
• Avoid primary colors. Instead, use shades of these colors (such as a grayish blue or a rusty red) to create a more sophisticated palette.
• Use pieces bearing images of the flag, like the sailboat and pillow below, in small doses, or save them for the holidays.
• Look for unexpected ways to bring these colors into your home. For example, no one who sees the abstract painting below is going to automatically think, "Ah ... 4th of July!"

Now that you have a few tips, are you ready to get started?
