5 DESIGNER APPROVED ways to add Coastal Vibes (Without being cheesy!)

June 19, 2023 · In: Interior Design

It’s no secret that themed decor isn’t really my thing… In Our video “10 Things that are Dating Your Home” Jack suggested something along the line of “ship out your signs and themed decor!” That video has 2.3million views, so I’m thinking there’s a chance you’ve seen it. Gulp. So, what’s the deal?! Why am I giving you tips on how to add a Coastal Vibe? Isn’t that a theme?

Well, it can be, but it can also be very subtle and chic. Every summer I crave a bit of coastal in my home! The sand, the sea air, the white linens, gorgeous rattan….I can’t get enough of these! Whether you live by the beach or in the heart of the country, these tips will help you create a summery, relaxing atmosphere… without looking overly themed or cheesy!

Beautiful Baskets:
One of our favorite coastal-inspired pieces is a set of woven baskets. These versatile items can be both bohemian and luxurious, depending on how you style them. They are not only visually appealing but also practical for storage purposes. Whether you want to store blankets, toys, or other items, these baskets are a perfect addition to any home.

Cozy Blankets:
To add warmth and comfort to your space, invest in beautiful blankets. Look for materials like linen or cozy fabrics with coastal-inspired patterns and colors. Draping a blanket over the arm of your sofa or laying it on your bed instantly adds a coastal touch to the room.

Coral and Seashells:
For a touch of coastal elegance, incorporate coral or seashell accessories into your home decor. These pieces add a graphic and architectural element that instantly enhances the coastal vibe. Place them on nightstands, coffee tables, or bookshelves for a subtle yet impactful coastal touch.

Bring in Linen:
Transform your home into a summer sanctuary with the simple addition of linen curtains and napkins. The airy fabric and natural texture instantly infuse your space with a breezy vibe, evoking the essence of warm days and lazy afternoons spent in the sun.

Scents:
Enhance your summer ambiance with delightful scents. Infuse your space with the invigorating aromas of beachy coconut, zesty citrus, and fresh-cut flowers. Let scented candles and diffusers transport you to sun-soaked shores.

Already voting for an ENDLESS FALLand it’s just Already voting for an ENDLESS FALLand it’s just getting started!! 🍂 🎃 

Comment FALL to get the links! 👏🏽 🍁 

Guys! Fall is here and I’m enjoying this year more than any before!! The leaves are just starting to change and even as I watch one little lonely leaf falling, the excitement and anticipation of the fall spectacle of leaves is making me jump up and down! 

I know! So silly but it’s just so beautiful, isn’t it?! I love the warmth, the coziness, the soup bubbling on the stove, the warm candlelight flickering in the evening light, the pumpkin cakes baking in the oven, the long cozy nights spent cuddling on the couch under the fur blankets (and laughing as someone sticks their cold toes on the other’s leg! Ewww hahaha) 

I’m 1000% here for it and I’m soaking up every single second!!!

I hope you are enjoying the season as well! 

Sending a big hug and a kiss for each cheek! XxV

Guys!! If there’s one thing I love about decorating - it’s decorating for free! Your backyard (or even front yard!) are full of great decor! Nature walks become a treasure hunt and your world inside your home can reflect all the beautify of the outdoors. 

Your vessels, vases, bowls, trays… they all become art with these additions!

But why stop there?! What about the food you eat? Bowls of nuts, trays of dried fruit, vessels overflowing with butternut squash and pumpkins?! Eeekkk! It’s all so beautiful! It’s such an honest way to create seasonal decor while also making seasonal living even better! 

Your books? Don’t leave them sitting crammed on a shelf! Open them up to a favorite page that inspires you to live well and even what’s on the menu this week!

The best things in life really are free and you wouldn’t believe the things you can use to create these magnificent moments of joy in your life!

The only question now is… should we make butternut squash chili, butternut squash soup in sourdough bowls or roast them with maple & brown sugar? 

Love you all! XxV

Comment TREE to get the link!!! 🎄 ✨ 

Sorry to break from fall for a minute but the Grand Duchess is BACK IN STOCK!! I waited a year to get mine last year and they sold out so fast that I couldn’t get more for our own home or projects so I already bought two more!! They are WORTH THE HYPE!! I’m tearing up just thinking about how pretty it is with the twinkling lights (& Jack is trying to convince me to put them up now! Haha!)

But seriously, this tree is 1/5 of the price of the designer versions and is truly exquisite!

Ok! I’ll stop talking so you can go get yours!  Yipppeeeee!!!!!
