Ah, the beach! There’s nothing quite like the salty breeze, the sound of waves crashing, and the feeling of sand between your toes. But what if you could bring that beachy vibe into your home, no matter where you live? Here are some fun and easy ways to add some laid-back, coastal charm. Let’s dive in!
Coastal Wall Art
Let’s talk about colors. The beach palette is all about those soft, dreamy hues—seafoam green, sandy beige, sunset pinks and ocean blues. Let’s bring those beach vibes to your walls with prints or paintings of ocean scenes or coastal landscapes in soft pastels (the print shown here is unframed on Amazon)
Cabana Stripes
One of the easiest ways to create a beachy look is by adding some nautical cabana stripes with striped rugs, towels, blankets, blankets, or throw pillows.
Weathered Wood and Natural Elements
Nothing says “beach house” like a touch of rustic wood in a driftwood-like finish. You can also incorporate other natural materials like rattan, jute, and bamboo to bring that beachy texture to your decor.
Seashells and Ocean Treasures
Seashells, starfish, and other ocean treasures are perfect for DIY projects. Create a stunning centerpiece with a glass bowl filled with sand and shells, or make a seashell mirror frame. If DIY isn’t your thing, don’t worry—there are plenty of ready-made decor items featuring these seaside gems. Think shell-themed candles, picture frames, wall art, and other items like this cute seashell tic-tac-toe game.
Light and Breezy Textiles
Textiles play a huge role in creating that beach house feel. Opt for light, breezy, natural fabrics like linen or cotton for your curtains, bedding, and upholstery. A soft, gauzy curtain billowing in the breeze? Pure coastal magic! And don’t forget about those throw pillows and blankets—mix and match different textures and patterns for a cozy, lived-in look.
Marine-Inspired Lighting
Lighting is key to setting the mood in any space, and a beach house is no exception. Look for fixtures that incorporate natural materials or have a nautical theme - sea glass, rope-wrapped lamps, beaded pendants, or even a chandelier made from seashells. Love this 17.5” beaded, ombre blue chandelier from Maklaine!
Beachy Accents
Finally, let’s talk about those little accents that really bring the theme home. You can add items like a vintage surfboard propped up in a corner, a collection of glass buoys, or a stylish bar cart for those beachy cocktails. Even a simple vase of white flowers can add that sunny, coastal vibe.
Creating a beach house feel in your home is all about capturing that relaxed, carefree spirit of the coast. It’s about surrounding yourself with things that make you feel happy and at ease. So, put on some beach tunes, mix yourself a tropical drink, and start decorating. Before you know it, you’ll have your very own slice of paradise, right at home!🌴🏖️
I hope these tips have inspired you to bring a bit of the beach into your home. It’s all about having fun and creating a space that feels like your personal getaway. Happy decorating!
