Get the Look...Seaside!

With reports of a heatwave about to hit the UK I'm sure there'll be thousands of families heading for the coast this weekend...trying to keep cool!
How about staying home and creating a seaside room for the kids that will last longer than the British Summer...!!?
Here at Dreams and Wishes, we suggest keeping the walls simple in a light cream...you could add a bit of tongue and grooving...beach hut style, or invest in furniture with a seaside feel.   
Wooden flooring in a 'sun-bleached' shade works well on the floors.

                                                                                                              tumble home

Add colour with a deck-chair stripe rug...or a funky graphic!

                       house to home                                                                                                                 garnet hill

And keep to the stripes with the bedding...


Have some fun with the accessories...cushions, artwork, toys and lighting can make the room...whether contemporary......



....or more traditional...




Add a personal touch...maybe something that reminds you of previous holidays at the seaside...or a coastal town local to you...!
