Ocean Coastal

If you can not see the waves crashing on the shore of your front window (or even if you can!), You can always make this sensation of the sea inside your home with some beautifully arranged coastal artwork on your walls.

If you are looking for a beach in New England cottage type of feeling in your home, choose the art in pastel colors that feature images of dunes, lighthouses, and Breezy summer days spent build castles. For extra cottage feel, think the framing or distressed white-washed wooden frames.

Maybe your style leans more towards the path of Caribbean life. Consider prints with vivid colors reminiscent of Jamaican hot nights spent drinking the punch rum and dance to reggae beats. Showcase photos of foliage and cheerful island houses, palm trees and pristine beaches. Frame with a darker wood or fiber frame natural to make the color very pop.

Maybe you want your home to portray a cool, laid-back Florida Keys kind of attitude. Show images of long jetties, the waters of the calm bay, and fishing boats in deep water. Bright and spacious with blue sky and the ocean, these images could be better framed in a light-colored part of the natural wood. So relax, put on some Jimmy Buffet music and enjoy a frozen Margarita, all without leaving your home.

Finally, perhaps you're more of a "Surf's Up Up" type of beach bum, always remember that the vast next wave. If this is you, create your perfect surf shack with representations of underwater colorful surfboards, vintage cars wood or long term waves barrel. For them you can use color or natural wood frames. Or maybe you want to hang outside on your patio. A large many of the same images are available as weather signs and tin-resistant for indoor or outdoor use! No frame required.

Another great idea would be to build rustic wooden signs with great Beachy sayings like "Beach This Way" or "Gone Surfing" that tell the world how much you love the beach.
