Decorating your home this Christmas season with coastal inspired decor is not your typical holiday style, but is super stylish and a fun alternative. You don’t necessarily have to live in a beach home to decorate in this style. There are plenty of excellent selections to make your tree shine. Whether you select a fresh tree or an artificial one, either way it will look fabulous. When you think nautical decor, you think surf and sand and plenty of sunshine as your inspiration.
There are plenty of ornaments you can select from to decorate your tree branches. Such items includes: starfish, shells, sand dollars, burlap, ribbon, glass and mercury ornaments, sea horses and garland. If you don’t have space for a tree, you can get creative and make one out of driftwood. You can find a small tabletop tree and hot glue shells onto it or small ornaments. Don’t forget the string lights! We have plenty of ideas to change up your theme this holiday season and make your tree go coastal!
