If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know I love casual coastal style. I was incredibly blessed to grow up on the beach and now that I live inland, I often miss the water desperately. And while I’m not a fan of “themes” in decorating, I do incorporate coastal colors often. I am just naturally drawn to them. I have mason jars and glass bowls of sea glass around my house. Sea glass holds a special place in my heart and my walk of faith. I just never seem to get tired of soft blues and greens, creams and cool whites.
The colors of sea glass look wonderful against a white wall with lots of natural light.
I love the pale blue walls in our kitchen. The color is River Rapids by Ralph Lauren at Home Depot. There is something cool and soothing about a wall that is barely-blue. 
A similar color looks great on these painted floors.
Gorgeous turquoise. Who wouldn’t love an outside shower? As a little girl, we used to come home from the beach to be sprayed down by a very cold garden hose!
Pretty accent pillows show how you can incorporate coastal colors into your summer decorating without redoing your room.
Corresponding cushions in a variety of complimentary coastal colors. I love the bead board ceiling and industrial fan in this room.

I would love to know how you incorporate coastal colors in your home!
These are so beautiful! Inspiring me to do a room with coastal colors…
We have turquoise accent pillows, and throws. I also have milk glass with candles lit in them for a warm white glow and lots of natural light.
And a kiddie pool. Let’s all put our feet in and pretend we’re at the beach!
Oh Erin, those are the prettiest pictures. I am redoing my entire home office in soft gray/spa blue and cream. LOVE those colors. I’ve used them in ALL my bathrooms. I never get tired of spa blue. Never !
I live on the Texas coast, so we incorporate it into our home as well. Kind of a western coastal look…I am big on slipcovered furniture- a must with four kids and a weinie dog. I also love sisal rugs and anything with a natural texture.
I love your blog!
Benjamin Moore’s Aura line (the most amazing paint ever) has a color called Atmospheric – a beautiful gray-blue-green that makes me feel like I’m always on vacation. My husband picked it for our living room and did he ever pick well!!! The couch and armoire are cream-colored, and the accents splashed around the room are green. I prayed for God to help me decorate my house and make it a respite for the weary. I knew He did just that when my friend sat on my couch one day and sighed, “Just being here makes me feel so refreshed.”
I love these colors. Beach glass is one of my favorites too. There is a beach called Glass Beach that we used to visit every summer, I miss that place.
I love the white on white look. These pictures are beautiful! I always think a touch of pink, be that with flowers or a pink cushion can just lift it. You have good taste. The pictures make me long for a well earned holiday.
Best wishes.

I am all about that color scheme. I never tire of it. It’s so serene! My home is full of blues and greens – the colors are surprisingly versatile and very soothing. Thanks for sharing the beautiful pics!
For me it’s reverse. I grew up landlocked (in Switzerland) and now live by the sea. I love sea glass, it’s the ultimate when it comes to color. There is not much to be found of it though where I live.
I grew up in Rhode Island and now live in San Diego so while I still live on a coast – west coast style is very different from east coast style and so I actually had a few rhode island accents in my guest bedroom at my old house – a throw and an accent pillow. We are in the process of redoing our bathroom and I am using the very New England blue with white accents
beautiful images and blog! love the color turquoise too.
