Beachy Bedrooms

No matter where I end up settling down, I will undoubtedly create a home that has a beachy feel. I have always loved the light colors, natural materials, and laid-back look of beach house decor. These beachy bedrooms are stylish spaces that serve as a calm retreat.

Want to achieve a similar look? Keep these things in mind:
  • Stick with furniture that is white, wood (distressed or white-washed is best for this style), or rattan.
  • Create a calm color scheme with a combination of pale versions of blue, teal, yellow, and tan.
  • Select fabrics that are cotton or linen based.
  • Nothing says "beachy" quite like a jute area rug.
  • When in doubt, add white. Bright white ceilings, molding, furniture, and accessories will keep the look fresh and clean.

Knot Just for Boaters

Think rope knots are just for boaters? Think again. These nautically-inspired knots are the perfect way to add a bit of summer to your home's decor. Switching out accessories such as throw pillows, place mats, and curtain tie backs is an easy way to change the style of your home as often as you'd like. Change accessories seasonally or whenever your personal style starts to wander. Your home should always be a place that expresses you, so let these accessories lead your home into a stylish summer!
