Coastline Treasures

When it comes to decorating, most people tend to address the horizontal space (the furniture, accessories, and objects on the floor) before the vertical space (walls and ceiling).  But as the surfaces others will associate most with the room upon remembrance, the walls and ceiling are an important element.  The color of the walls and the various pieces of art or objects placed upon them set the tone for the space.  Creating a unique indoor space begins with addressing the color of the walls.  While the choice of color is up to the owner, it’s important to paint the color on the walls prior to committing, and make sure it is the desired color upon drying; often paint colors look much different when dried than when in liquid form.  Once a color for the walls has been picked out, address the wall art.  Consider pictures, posters, decorative wall plates or plaques, and even rugs.  These objects can do much to frame pieces of furniture and accessories in the vicinity.

Once a successful wall layout has been developed, decorating the rest of the room becomes much easier for the owner.  There’s nothing that makes a room more inviting than having a rich color on the walls and a lot of creative wall art and décor.
