From Shore To Door: Coastal Home Decor Finds
Coastal charm doesn’t have to be limited to beachside addresses. The essence of the seaside can be brought into your home with a light, airy, and relaxing atmosphere that’s inviting every day. To achieve this coastal vibe, start by laying the foundation – think of it as building the cake before adding the toppings! A neutral base featuring whites, beiges, and grays sets the stage for a cohesive look. You can see the specific colors I chose for my home in this link [HERE].

When it comes to designing a coastal-inspired coffee table setup, you can’t go wrong with a mix of natural textures and pops of color. Start by featuring a rattan tray or a woven basket as the centerpiece. Add some ambiance with candles or a tabletop lamp, and bring in a touch of nature with a faux tree or plants in different shapes and sizes to incorporate green into your design. You can also add a side table or shagreen clock to complete the look.
To introduce coastal colors, opt for throw blankets and pillows in shades of blue and green, or go for patterned pieces like floral or geometric designs. The key is to strike a balance between textures, patterns, and colors to achieve that light, airy, and relaxing atmosphere that’s characteristic of coastal home decor. Remember, it’s all about capturing the essence of the ocean breeze without overwhelming the space with too many elements.
wall art finds
Transforming a space with coastal-themed prints and paintings is an excellent way to bring the beach home. I adore viewing blank walls as empty canvases, just waiting for a splash of personality and charm. Decorating walls can make a significant difference in a room’s ambiance. Coastal scenes come in various shapes and sizes, perfect for achieving a laid-back atmosphere. Mixing different shaped wall art can also become the focal point of a space.
For instance, this hallway nook features board and batten walls, a neutral bench, but where does your eye go first? The stunning coastal wall art in the center takes center stage! Similarly, wall art can serve as a backdrop, rather than the focal point. This coastal nook showcases a wooden corner table, weathered vase, and beautiful faux florals. It’s essential to remember which materials to focus on and incorporate throughout your home.
Coastal decor often features wood, rattan, wicker, and bamboo, adding warmth and texture to the space. Each of these elements contributes to a cozy atmosphere. When it comes to coastal home decor, don’t be afraid to get creative and explore local antique shops – you might discover unique furniture pieces that will surprise and delight!
coastal bedroom decor
When it comes to coastal bedroom decor, it’s not just about the colors you choose – fabrics and textures play a significant role as well. To create a light and airy feel, opt for fabrics like cotton or linen that are breathable and easy to work with, especially during warmer months. Quilts can be a fantastic addition to your coastal bedding ensemble, adding texture and warmth without feeling too heavy or overwhelming.
They’re a great way to introduce depth and visual interest into the space without sacrificing the sense of openness and freshness that’s so characteristic of coastal design.
cozy coastal corner
Imagine stepping into a serene coastal oasis, where every element harmoniously converges to create a haven of relaxation. At the heart of this tranquil space lies an inviting accent chair, its neutral hue providing a soothing backdrop for the textured throw blanket that drapes effortlessly over its arms. Above, a majestic faux tree stands tall, its presence elevated by the subtle yet striking coastal wall art that adorns the surrounding walls.
Meanwhile, linen drapes in a soft, airy fold billow gently in the breeze, their delicate folds casting a calming ambiance. This haven of relaxation is where you can escape the hustle and bustle, curl up with a good book, and let the soothing rhythms of the coastal atmosphere wash over you.
outdoor patio styling
After scouring the market for the ultimate coastal outdoor decor, I can confidently say it was a challenge! To create my dreamy oasis, I chose a striking blue patio umbrella as the focal point and complemented it with a matching throw blanket. The wicker chairs brought a perfect blend of coastal charm to our outdoor space. With warm weather approaching, we spend plenty of time outside, and I wanted our patio to mirror the cozy ambiance inside my home.
