Create Your Own Seaside Sanctuary at Home
16 June 2025
Imagine relaxing in your own seaside sanctuary, a place where the ocean's tranquillity surrounds you.
With the right colour palettes, textures, features, and accessories, you can transform your own space into a beach-themed paradise without buying any plane tickets.
Use nautical decorations and soft, natural materials to boost the coastal atmosphere in your own home, and incorporate soothing white, blue, sandy, and wooden hues to capture the peaceful sanctuary feel.
Seabreeze Scents
Capture the essence of the ocean and set the scene by filling your home with the invigorating aroma of fresh sea air.
With notes of salt, seaweed waves, and marine breezes, our Washed Ashore fragrances are especially designed to bring tranquillity into your space, transporting you back to that incredible vacation or romantic stroll on the beach.
B&M Top Tip: Check out our trending Washed Ashore products for more beachy scents, wavy décor, and marine textures.
Nautical Décor
Creating the ultimate coastal haven begins by finding accents that capture the essence of beach living, blending peaceful blue and white hues with driftwood textures.
Think pale wood accents like this Washed Ashore Wood Mirror, soft seashell patterns like the Ceramic Shell Shaped Vase, or other tranquil blue and white combinations that evoke the charm of seaside living.
B&M Top Tip: Infuse your space with other marine life motifs, including anchor designs, ship wheels, nautical rope accents, etc.
Shoreline Storage
Tidying your space and having a de-cluttered home has been proven to help you feel calmer and more focused - aiding mental health and wellbeing.
Whatever room you are organising, keep the calming shoreline feel with a Natural Woven Blue Basket, or a Knotted White Paper Basket for small items.
Storage doesn't have to just be a practical solution to a messy problem, it can also serve as a complimentary decorative feature that enhances your interior design theme.
The Blue Curved Ottoman is a great example of this, providing ample storage within while capturing the mysterious allure of the deep sea.
Coastal Furnishings
Furnishings are a great way to ad accents and bring out other tones in your interior design.
To create a truly relaxing seaside haven, don't forget to incorporate soft fabrics and furnishings fit for a beach hut retreat.
Sink into our Wave Loop Cushion in tranquil blue as you unwind after a long day, or snuggle under the Natural Woven Jacquard Throw as you bask in luxurious style and comfort.
Beach Side Dining
Whether you're having your morning coffee, a romantic meal, or a family gathering, adding some coastal charm to your table can really elevate your dining experience.
Add some whimsical sea critters to your day with the Washed Ashore Lobster Decal Mug, or create the perfect cold brew in the Washed Ashore Glass Starfish Mug.
Whip up the perfect meal and serve it with seaside style on a Blue Rim Dinner Plate, evoking the calming white and blue hues of coastal living.
