What is Coastal Decor?
Coastal decor is characterized by light walls, pale greens, and blues. Furnishings are minimal but oversized and and simple in shape. Coastal decor usually incorporates light colored woods, baskets and sailing paraphernalia.
It can be over the top and kitschy or understated and elegant!

You don’t need to live by the sea to embrace Coastal Decor, but you will often find this type of decor near the coast. If you want to incorporate this design style in your own home, these items will help you get there.
If you are looking for tranquility go for understated and pick 2 or 3 colors to use in your space. You will also want to incorporate light wood and textured baskets.
If you want a room that screams coastal decor you can mix and match prints, use bold colors with abandon and enjoy the energy that is in your room.

Art as Coastal Wall Decor
Art is one of the best ways to reinforce the Coastal design style is with art. Most Coastal Wall decor is of sailboats, the sea, or ropes. But you can find other subjects that bring in the same colors of the coast without being so literal.
This reproduction of Vincent Van Gogh’s seascape is a perfect piece for a coastal room. It brings in the colors of the sea while staying nice and neutral.
Sailboats are classic coastal symbols and are right at home in coast decor. This is a beautiful piece because it is more abstract than most you will find.

- UNFRAMED PRINT - I have to put this in for the people that don't read the words Unframed Print in the title. Of course if they didn't read the title or the words on the pictures they probably won't read this LOL. We tried. It's a print. It's not printed on the wood, stone, slate, matboard, or any other kind of substrate. It's not a thick sign, it's a print. It's not framed. That's why every picture says "Frame not Included". If you did read this far, Thank You

Light fixtures
