Let's talk coral

Awwee....Coral, the lovely color that's not too bright, and not too dull, calming but cheerful; a perfect balance of tone in fact to be used in any room you choose. Don't restrict Coral to only being used in a beach home or girl's space. This color is A LOT more universal than that! From kitchens - bedrooms - bathrooms - sun rooms, this color is spot on for fun! Coral is complimentary to teal which makes a beautiful room, but don't get me wrong, Coral can definitely stand on it's on two feet!

Here are some beautiful tones of Coral paint which would make a great monochromatic room:

 Let's look at some different ways to use Coral:

Coral Door via Coastal Living
Use Coral as a color of "WELCOME". Weathered siding is a great backdrop for a beautiful Coral front door..

Could you be so bold? Thinking outside of the box can be so fun!



Via House to Home UK
Here is a great way to use Coral on the walls without it overwhelming the space. Use White wainscotting to balance out the Coral and you are good to go!

Another way to use Coral on the walls without it being to overwhelming is to just use it on one "accent wall".  This is just enough Coral to not be too over powering.
Coral is also a great color to use for accents or furniture:

Use Coral to make unique accents in a room such as these frames.

Think of a piece of furniture that will become a timeless family heirloom to pass down to the next generation.

This room is such a beautiful complimentary scheme! Aren't Coral and Teal just lovely together?

This is a great example of how Coral is the perfect color to make a cheerful sunroom.

Make a bold statement in your bath by painting your vanity Coral.
and last but not least I thought I would share a  kitchen that is pretty unique: This kitchen is a little out there. Somehow though, I can't help but find myself drawn in by it! Pic via Pinterest
Coral and light Teal "lower" cabinets. Check out the circle backsplash! This is very funky but cool if you had a vacation home you could afford to be a little adventurous with!

Stay calm and go to the beach!

It's that time of year again: FUN IN THE SUN! It's time to get away and relax, just for a spell to chase the stresses of life away. A beach vaca has a way of letting you forget your cares because the beach seems to run on it's own clock. Do you ever go to the beach and just lose track of what day it is? I have and it's a great feeling! Of course, it's not fun when it's over but you always bring back memories to last a lifetime!

Not only is the beach a blast, but decorating "coastal living" is so much fun. When I think of coastal decor, I automatically think of calm relaxing color pallets: calming blues / greens with khakis/creams and whites.

 If you are totally obsessed with the beach and want to decorate at least a room in your home to reflect that passion, there is an endless amount of possibilities. Maybe you have just purchased a beach house or condo and need some inspiration for the decor........well we are going to post some pics that will definitely help! Pics via Pinterest
Can't help but love a coastal home with blue siding. It's stand's out, but is calming at the same time.

Make your room neutral but paint your floors a soft blue!

Here is a good example of just using "touches" of coastal.

Here is another example of a very subtle coastal look. Loving all different patterns: stripes, polka dots, damask.

This bathroom has a relaxing light green & creme color scheme throughout. If your want to achieve that feeling, stay with calm light / neutral pallets. Relaxing is what I want when I go to take a shower or bath; it's time to unwind after all!

GORGEOUS open concept kitchen/dining featuring:  green subway tile, white cabinets, wicker chairs & a green island. This kitchen/dining has the perfect balance to make it flow seamlessly into the living area.

I have showed you more soft coastal colors, but if you want a brighter color in your coastal space, think turquoise for sure!
