Furnishing a Beach House

Beach House

Furnishing a beach house is not only exciting but can also be budget-friendly. Right from furniture and colors to the paraphernalia and accessories, decorating beach homes can completely transform a house to look, chic and trendy. Summarized below are some of the aspects of decorating beach homes –

Arranging found objects

Accessories have the capacity to turn a plain-Jane place into a fancy-Nancy. Objects that one finds on the beach, and the shorelines make for a great catch and make for great decorating objects around the house. Right from shells, corals, round stone pebbles and oddly-shaped ephemera make for great accessories. Moreover, one can gather spare trinkets, driftwood from the beach and seashells and corals into a wooden bowl and make a charming and simple centerpiece. Glass jars filled with coloured sand also make for great accessories. Other decorative objects such as natural nautical rope coasters, sand candles of all shapes and sizes, seashell wall hangings, vases arranged with wild sea flowers also make for a rustic and relaxed display in the kitchen, entryway and the living room.

Furniture ideas

Furniture in a beach home should not be heavy and ostentatious but should have a light and clean look. For example, wooden furniture looks great in a beach house. A little bit of sandpaper and paint can give old-fashioned wooden furniture into developing a coastal and chic look. White, cream and beige coloured pouffes make for great patio furniture. Two earthy perches in front of a traditional, low coffee table, soft cotton, raw wood and wicker rugs and seating also make for great furniture and lend a certain amount of serenity to the house. Coffered beams and ceilings and wood-paneled walls are amazing ways to develop texture in a beach home in the most dramatic way

Bedding and furnishings

Bedding and furnishings can transform furniture to get a trendy, chic and dreamy beachside look. Slipcovers with osnaburg or muslin fabric make for great furnishings for bedding and other furniture, and they are much less expensive that canvas and other linens. Natural cotton and linen layering over and over give the bedding an unfussy and refreshing comfortable look. They also give the bedding and other furniture a clean look and stop them from looking overly disheveled. Gauzy curtains diffuse the daylight makes for a great, luminous backdrop as well.

Lighting and color elements

White is the hallmark color of beach décor because it is simple and natural and spreads the light, amplifying it rather than soaking it up. Apart from skylights, glass doors and many windows, homeowners can add wall sconces and intricate floor length lamps with dim and accent lighting. Artwork can be accented and highlighted with accent lights. The doorway or the window that faces the beach can have a light pendant light with dim orange lighting giving off a dreamy look.

Nap away

No beach house is complete without a hammock. Hammocks on the patio make for a great reading and resting spot on lazy afternoons and evenings.
