Framed Beach Sign Decor

If you are looking for a way to really bring your beach house to life you want to decorate with beach signs! Using word art inspired by the beach or a trip to the shore can add character and make your space stand out. One of the best parts of decorating with beach signs in finding the ones that most remind you of the places to which you've been. Whether you want to create beach inspired décor that's colorful and whimsical or more natural and serene, beach signs can say what you're feeling and add those personal touches that make a space your own.

Beach Signs in a Blue and White Color Scheme

Blue and White Beach Signs

If you're looking to use your beach sign décor in a room with an overall nautical feel, blue and white is a great color scheme to look at using throughout your space. There's no shortage of blue and white beach signs, beach themed décor or upholstery prints to bring your look together in a really cohesive way. A coffee table painted a bright white with transparent blue vases on it makes a great center piece in a sophisticated beach themed space. You can then decorate with artwork of white shells on a darker blue canvas, images of the deep blue sea on crisp white walls or beach signs in all shapes and sizes to make your stunning space feel like it's right on the boardwalk.

To lighten the mood without taking away from your killer sense of style, consider a fun piece of art like Susan Ball's "Swim at Your Own Risk". This piece of fun and stylish art will add a conversation piece and be unexpected in your room, showing off your sense of humor as well as your good taste in décor styles and colors. "High Tide" is another Susan Ball piece that could be used in the same space to complement the existing décor and color scheme.

Creating a Decorative Shelf or Mantel using Beach Art

Beach Shelf

When decorating with beach signs, a fireplace mantel or shelf is always a great way to create a beach themed focal point in the room. These can be used to hold your artwork and other decorative pieces, combining them into a 3D type collage of memorabilia and beach sign art. Personalized decorating can be pieces that you've collected in your own travels or anything that makes you feel at home. Using accent colors of seafoam or sky blue will help to create a colorful, yet classic look for your beach sign inspired shelf or mantel.

If you don't have a fireplace you can always purchase a faux mantel piece to go against your wall. Painted bright white, this is the perfect statement piece to display your art and decorative beach treasures. Consider hanging a piece of netting over the mantel with some seashells strands strung through. Next you can add in some starfish of all sizes propped up against your wall on either side of your artwork. A wonderful piece to complete this set up would be Shelia Elsea's "Seaside Cottage". Paired with an off white matte and a rustic gold toned frame, it will be truly eye catching.

Beach Signs in a Casual Living Room

If want your beach house to have more of a casual feel, the living room is the place to start. The living room is one of the most important rooms in a home because it brings people together. Relaxing on a big comfy chaise while you listen to the waves splashing against the shore, and the children laughing is a recipe for the perfect afternoon.

A great way to make your living room come to life while still staying casual is beach signs. When choosing beach signs for your décor you want to keep in mind the color schemes that are already in your room. If your sofa is a mixture of grey and black hues, you could bring in a splash of color with your beach signs and it will really stand out in your space of otherwise muted colors. A great accent color to greys and black, and a great color in beach sign decorating, is blue. Avery Tillmon's "Life is Better at the Beach" piece is a great choice to complement a room with these color tones. It brings in small, bright splashes of color without being overbearing. Choose an off white matte and a light beach wood frame to make your room perfect with this beach sign art piece.
