Bring the outside inside this Summer by giving your home a fresh seaside makeover.
Luckily for us we don’t need to live by the ocean to achieve the laid back feeling that Summer brings. Here are some tips on how to create your own summer retreat at home even if you, like me, live in the middle of the concrete jungle.
Fresh white linens and touches of wicker and coral can achieve this nautical look easily. Coral lamps are perfect for this look as well as being affordable. Give your mantels a new life by adding driftwood or porthole mirrors. Accessorise with bell lamps, sea shells, large prints of ocean scenes, navy and white printed cushions and pebble rugs. Take a look at this Urban Seaside wishlist for inspiration.
Here is a an urban seaside look created by mydeco’er PennyDreadful
Striking blue walls and nautical themed accessories inspired this great seaside look.
This summerhouse by naki1 is one of my favourite 3D rooms created with the 3D planner and is a perfect example of how gorgeous this laid back summer look can be.
Beautiful paintings, cushions and the Greek Key rug perfectly round off the image.
I hope these tips have helped you in creating your new home makeover but before you take a paintbrush loaded with blue paint to your walls, try the look using the mydeco.com 3D planner.
