Yesterday, while having morning coffee with my friend Wendy at Liberty Bay Books in Poulsbo I was introduced to a seriously dangerous blog, "Little Emma English Home". Really, her posts are an "Oh My" moment. I only say dangerous, because I could get lost all day in her posts and photos! In fact, I was almost an hour late to get to my friend Maggie's house on Miller Bay. Thank goodness Maggie is also a beach girl, and totally understood....Nantucket, definitely on my bucket list. I am West Coast girl through and through, but I just can't help myself, I am drawn to East Coast "seafaring" casual interiors. I love the blues and whites, the sailing ships, the whaling history, and the mix of nautical done right!
What do you think? Here's a few things that you can add to your decor to get the look!
Start with a Seagrass or Jute Rug to "anchor" your space -
Great pattern and texture in this Aaron All Natural Jute Rug
Don't be afraid of color - this Blue Knotted Reed rug is one of our faves!
A Driftwood Inspired Whale - We call him Mocha!
Welcome Guests with a Bright Lobster Pillow!
An Anchor Candle Holder or two... Love this re-emerging brass look! (new on our site!)
And of course, a model sailing ship is a must! Love this red and black sailing beauty -
Have a week - and don't forget to stop by Little Emma English Home, you will fall in love too!
I love that driftwood bouquet!
