37 Best DIY Beach House Ideas for Coastal Decor

Published Jun 27, 2018 By Diane

Looking for some cute beach house decor? I was looking for some wall art and new pillows for my house at the beach and was I ever surprised to see how high the prices were in stores, and how low the quality was. I thought to myself, surely there is a better way, and hopefully a cuter way, too! When it comes to decorating my vacation home, I really want to make creative statement that reflect my personality, don’t you? Well lucky for you, you’ve found the cutest beach house decor. There’s tables, mirrors, wall art, candles, wreaths, and much more beach themes stuff. Last fall we were heading down to our beach house and I wanted to add some decorations because it looked like a regular house on the inside. I made wind chimes for the patio, whale art for the living room, lobster art for the bedrooms, and even a seashell kitchen for the kitchen. All of the crafts combined were less than 100$ and they were as cute as can be. I personally love the feeling of being by the beach and you don’t even have to have a beach house to decorate it like one! Happy Crafting:) For homemade coastal decor ideas, try out a few of these cool projects.
