Bringing a beachy vibe to your living room is so fun and fulfilling! It’s all about getting in that relaxing beach mindset, then finding furniture and decor that embodies it. What reminds you of the beach the most? Or, what does your ideal beach look like? Don’t be afraid to experiment with bright colors, whimsical patterns, and exotic materials!

1. Palm Trees

One of the first things we think about when we say “beach” are palm trees. But if you don’t have the luxury of real palm trees around you, opt for a palm tree printed throw pillow or a framed photo. This way, you can relax under the palm trees without ever having to leave your home.

 

2. Add Some Paintings

Coastal decor is the star of beachy living room ideas. After all, if you want to make your living room beachy, you have to decorate it as if you’re actually living by the beach. Coastal living rooms usually have big windows decorated with light, bright curtains and drapes, light-toned furniture, and a relaxed atmosphere.

 

8. Let the Sun In

Probably one of the best and easiest beachy living room ideas is letting natural sunlight into your living room. Stick to bright shades like white and other pastels, and light wood. Shabby chic indeed!
