Seashore Bathroom Ideas

Starfish towel hooks


Seashore decorating has always been popular, which makes it easy to find everything you need in local stores or online for a seashore bathroom. If you want a very natural-looking decor, you can even hunt for decorating items at the beach. You can also buy shells, sand dollars, starfish and similar items while you're on vacation at a beach community.








Decorate With Matching Sets


Many stores have matching shower curtains, towels and other accessories for a beach-themed bathroom--perhaps with a fish or shell motif. Pick out a set you like and decorate your bathroom with complementary colors. Bring it all together by painting the walls a sky blue or a sandy beige. Then add bath rugs or scatter rugs in matching colors. For furniture in your bathroom, use pale wicker or white wicker.


Creating a Natural Look


To create your own seashore theme, keep it as natural as possible. Use a tan or sea-blue sheer shower curtain over a clear or tan liner. Seashore scenes painted on white wood furniture and real clam shells for soap dishes will give you the feeling of being right on the beach. Hang pictures of lighthouses or beach scenes. Use seashell hooks to hang your shower curtain. Place carved wooden seagulls on a shelf. Bring it all together with walls painted a sand color on the bottom and water color on top, with a cream or white chair rail.


Make Your Own Decorations


You can get very creative with a seashore motif. You can outline the mirror with seashells using glue and a craft sealer. Glue dried starfish to hooks to hang hand towels, and glue little shells to shower curtain hooks. Try painting a beach mural on a wall and drilling holes in a piece of driftwood to hold little candles. Use a nightlight that looks like a lighthouse. If you have collected seashells on your last beach vacation, put them in a pretty glass jar. You can even try making a shelf out of a large piece of driftwood by cutting part of the top flat and displaying a shell collection.
