Vintage coastal combines the relaxed feel of the beach with the comfortable look of vintage fabrics and furnishings. Give your bedroom a clean, uncluttered look with lots of white, touches of bright color, retro fabrics and for a welcoming, relaxing room that feels like a vacation at the beach without the sand or sunburn.
Instructions
1. Paint walls a light blue to bring the feel of the ocean indoors. White trim adds a crisp feel.
2. Create a soft, feminine look with vintage bedding. Crocheted lace bedspreads, knit afghans or old quilts combined with floral or solid white sheets transform your bedroom with retro style.
3. Cover your windows with sheer white drapes with a white roll-up blind underneath to provide privacy.
4. Set down a rug in crisp blues and white with ocean-themed designs.
5. Hang a ceiling fan with wicker or leaf-shaped blades. A light kit with glass fixtures will add vintage charm.
6. Use furniture in wicker or light wood to create the breezy feel of a beach house.
7. Display collectibles reminiscent of the beach, such as seashells, starfish or boat models.
8. Hang artwork that has seashore themes. Wood or light colored frames will complement the blue walls.
