Can't believe the long-awaited holidays have come and are all but gone again! I am trying to hold on to the very last bit for dear life...

In stead of pining for the beach for the rest of the year, I thought I should try to bring that holiday feeling into my own bedroom, with some beach-inspired decor. Of course, a bedroom with the sea a mere glimpse away has instant holiday appeal, regardless of the decor.

But for those of us who are landlocked, it will naturally take some effort.
Uppermost in my mind, to create a beach-haven of a bedroom would be to use plenty of crisp, cool whites in soft fabrics that I could imagine blowing gently in a salty breeze.

White wooden panelling on the walls and white wooden beams overhead; shutters at the windows; slightly worn or whitewashed furniture - these spell "seaside holiday" to me. Keep the look casual and simple to match an attitude of letting-your-hair-down or putting-your-feet-up.

But of course, if you do not want to commit to an all-year-round beach-feel in your bedroom, how about just adding a few accessories to remind you of the good times .. . some shells, a pebble and just a hint of sea green.
