I want to redecorate my room and make it an ocean theme. I already decided that I'm going to buy framed pictures of the beach, sunsets, etc. I'm going go get a new bed set that's green or blue or both. What else can I do? I have no other ideas!

Oh and also, I'm on a low budget so I can't go all out. Thanks in advance!



Answer
Oh gonna be so pretty and relaxing too! I would use a color scheme of sandy tans, soft blues and greens for the decor. Sheer white curtains long length. Think sheer flowing material like a softly blowing breeze.They are also 'cost effective' in another word cheap :o) Be certain tio keep the curtain rods etc to a minimalists concept. Hidden rod, like a slide rod. Or maybe you prefer blinds in a natural wood treatment. Second hand stores offer Small side tables. These can be repainted and can be a good display for Candles, candles and more candles artfully arranged in a clear crystal glass bowl(s) filled with either sand or sea shells or both. The bowls to can be purchased at second hand stores and yard sales. You don't have to get everything at once, gather as you go, seeing as you already have a theme in mind. Perhaps a few scatter rugs, but again go for texture and colors that compliment within the suggested range of colors. Keep to the natural elements. Search around and try to find something for one wall such as a good size piece of Driftwood. It will be lovely!

Need tips on making a kitchen look rustic and a bathroom match dolphin decor?




Kayla Harp


I am remodeling my kitchen and bathroom soon. I want a rustic-looking kitchen that still has modern conveniences. It's not a huge space and too much wood would make it look a lot smaller. Any tips on how to do that without overdoing wood?

Also, I want to match my bathroom to my dolphin decor. I want to make it look like a beach somehow (without the tacky ocean wallpaper). Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!



Answer
Sometimes rugged, but often cozy, rustic kitchens have a timeless and natural appearance. Wide-planked wood floors, antique brass hardware, knotty wood cabinets, and hammered copper all contribute to the earthy atmosphere of the rural lifestyle.
Rustic kitchen design can also reflect styles from other regions, including Southwestern styles, Farm and Country styles, Desert/Adobe styles, and Lodge/Mountain motifs.
To complete thje look, if you have the space, be sure to include an old rustic kitchen table and chairs for informal meals. You'll want to hang out a while in your cozy new kitchen. Instead of glossy polished countertops, try honed or flamed granite which has a natural satin appearance. Butcher block countertops look fantastic on rustic kitchen islands. If you're feeling adventurous, soapstone or honed marble are also make great rustic countertops.

As for your bathroom, you want to stay away from blue paint... too tacky. Try beach colors such as light beige, tan, or if you must mix blue and grey. Add shell lamps or light switches, big seashell soap dish, or shadow boxes with starfish, sand dollars & shells. You can add seashell or starfish shower curtain holders and even towels. Also anything nautical will blend nicely with the dolphins.
But too many dolphins can be overwhelming, so be careful.
