Live at the Beach All Year Long

The following are some of our favorite beach decorating elements to remind us of one of our favorite locations.

1.  The use of natural beach items. 

Sand, starfish and seashells make a centerpiece extra special.

A picture frame with starfish and sandollars capture beach memories.

2.  Lighting

A simple hurricane candle holder as a centerpiece on a dining table or as an accent in a room.

Light fixtures reminiscent of a waterfront boardwalk, like this Wire Cage Pendant light.


3.  Letting the outdoors come in.

Operable shutters to open the space to outside.

A rug with tropical plant leaves

4.  The color white.

Fresh, clean, comfortable.

White furniture with accents that provide pops of color in a room.


5.  The use of rattan, wicker and other woods.

A rattan bed completed with beach inspired sheets.

A simple lamp with minimal decoration.

Baskets for storage on a shelf or under a coffee table.

You can add a few of these elements to your room or incorporate all of them to have the feeling of living at the beach all year long.

  1. There are many reasons why a boiler may suddenly cease to function, but prompt diagnosis and repair is always a priority. Our commercial boiler breakdown team will attend promptly, accurately identifying the problem and then resolve it. commercial gas engineer surrey
