Ideas for Blue and White Deck Decor
Blue and White Decor on the Deck
Our deck has gotten spruced up for spring and I’m really looking forward to warmer
days and nights. We’ve definitely been hit with spring fever here, have you
as well?
Today I’m sharing our spring deck and ideas for using blue and white on your
porch or deck. I’m joining 24 of my blogging friends to kick off the
Celebrating Home Tour, hosting by my dear friend Leen at Sand Dollar Lane.
If you’re just coming over from Julie at My Wee Abode, welcome! She always has
the best diy and decorating ideas! You can see all of the ideas for decorating
so many areas of your house for spring all week and the sneak peeks are at the
bottom of this post. Be sure to visit everyone throughout the week.
Blue and white has really appealed to me lately so I thought I’d use some of
my favorites out here and give some tips for incorporating it into your porch
or deck decor. Here are just a few ideas.
This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. For full disclosure go here.
1. Potted flowers
Nothing says spring like flowers. I love to use them all year, but especially
in the spring. I picked up these stunning blue hydrangeas at Costco last
weekend and am blown away by the beautiful colors. I tucked them inside one of
my vintage white stoneware crocks.
Lucy kitty approves. And she was probably getting ready to taste them at this
point. She was caught in the act, lol.
I couldn’t resist photographing these beauties because the color probably
won’t last as long as I want. It’s a mix of intense blues and violets.
Wizard also had to check them out. He likes to sneak and bite the leaves of my
plants when I’m not looking. It’s a losing battle around here. I’ve tried
sprinkling essential oils around my plants and that doesn’t deter him. Let me
know in the comments if you have any good tips!
2. Blue Mug and Napkins
Sitting out on the deck and sipping coffee, tea, or wine is always so
relaxing. I carried a few of my favorite blue napkins, my little
blue and white caddy, and a Blue Willow coffee mug that was my mother-in-law’s.
3. Blue and White Planters
Something else I got last weekend were these pretty blue and white planters with succulents. They’re fresh and fun and succulents usually don’t die as quickly as other plants at my house. 😉
I added a bay leaf plant in a fun planter, some little green stoneware birds from my shop, and some
vintage brass candle sticks for a bit of sparkle.
4. Blue and White Throw Blankets
I have a bit of a throw blanket addiction and have a few blue ones. I added
these two are lightweight ones our outdoor teak chairs and they went perfectly
with the other items I have out here.
5. Vintage blue bottles
Bottles are great for vases or simple decor. I used some vintage blue bottles as vases and clipped a few fern branches from
the back yard. It’s such a simple way to add some flowers or foliage. I tucked
them inside my vintage-looking wooden tool caddy from my shop.
Here’s one last view, looking out from our living room. I’m working on a big
makeover for that room with new furniture and shades and I’m so excited to
share that later this month. Stay tuned! It’s going to be so pretty!

Angie, your porch is absolutely gorgeous! I could spend days relaxing out there!
I really love the soft blue with the wood tones, what a beautiful combo!
Glad you're part of the Celebrating Spring Blog Hop, it shouldn't be the same without you!
Angie – you had our attention at Blue and White! You have created a beautiful and tranquil space. We love your design elements – especially the tray wit the pretty napkins and that divine much!
All the best ~ Vicki and Jenn – 2 Bees
Angie, your blue and white porch is so beautiful and serene. I would love to sit there with a friend and chat over a cup of tea or glass of wine. Blue is my favorite color and it works so well with all the neutral color on your porch. Love those vintage bottles and the hydrangeas are spectacular. I bet they would dry well too.
Your deck looks gorgeous decorated for spring. I'm officially inviting myself over to sit out there with you and the kitties. Those hydrangea are gorgeous and add a nice pop of color to the space. I always love seeing how you decorate for the season and like always, your space looks wonderful.
I have always love seeing real furniture (like your drop leaf table) outside on porches, decks, etc. It just makes the area seem so cozy and your deck looks amazing! Love the colors and how you've styled it all. You can never go wrong with good ol/ crocks either. I'd spend a ton of time out there. Enjoy!
So Pretty. I love your kitty standing by the flowers.
How beautiful! I love all the blue and your cute kitty! I haven't started decorating my patio yet…since we still have snow on the ground! Enjoy your lovely space!

I love to sit out on the porch and yours is so pretty, thanks and have a great day.
I love blue and white together… that's what I have in my bedroom! Those hydrangeas look faux, they are so perfect! Fun hopping with you… pinned and shared!
Angie, I always look forward to seeing how you will decorate your beautiful home! The fireplace is one of my favorites, and I love the crock with hydrangeas. The colors are stunning. So enjoyed hopping with you! Happy Spring. 🙂
This is so cozy, Angie! I love that faux fireplace mantel.
I'm so thrilled your kitties made an appearance on your beautiful deck! You did such a stunning job.
Angie, I am ready to move in! I love every single thing on your pretty porch! All the warm, natural wood tones make the soft blues look very cottage farmhouse! I am a huge sucker for hydrangea too, and even though I'm in Texas where they don't do well, I have three growing in my front flower bed…fingers crossed I get some blooms this year!
What a beautiful space, Angie. I love the all the pieces you've chosen and that fireplace mantel is dreamy. Happy Spring!
I love your beautiful outdoor space. The blue and white is such a classic color combination and my all time favorite. Those hydrangeas are stunning.
I'm getting Spring fever over here too! I love how you used the blue touches in your decor, blue is one of my favorite colors
What a fabulous porch you have, Angie! I am loving blue and white lately too and I love how you used these colors in your porch. From the vintage bottles to the hydrangeas in the crock, every detail is gorgeous! Happy Spring, my friend!
Angie, I’ve gone crazy for blue and white and I love all your blue elements on the porch. Those hydrangeas are some of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. Love the mantel on your porch.
Angie I am in love with your outdoor space! All of your blue and white touches are speaking my love language! I pinned several images. I honestly love your mantel outdoors..it's perfection! Happy Spring!
Angie, this is so beautiful! Your blue and white is always perfection. I grew up eating on my Mom's blue willow dishes, so they are so special to me! Thanks for sharing this lovely space!
This is so beautiful and inviting! I love the blue and white combo!
Angie, I'm in love with your porch mantel! You must have so much fun decorating it each season. The blue and white color combo is perfect for spring! I love the vibrant blue hydrangeas and your blue willow mug. Pinned. It was fun hopping with you. Happy Spring!
Everything looks beautiful…I'm a blue and white lover too! Love your sweet kitties also. Just in case you didn't know, hydrangeas are toxic to them. I have a kitty that nibbles on everything too! I'm heading over to order those little green birds for a friend for her birthday in May. Happy Spring! xo
