Decorate walls with paintings and photos of the sea.
Liven up your beach condo's walls with paint colors, art and accessories inspired by the sea. Paint walls a sunny yellow, vibrant coral, sea foam green or azure blue. Display photos of the beach, or hang abstract paintings in beach colors. Use your seashell collection or branches of found driftwood to create one-of-a-kind wall ornamentation.
Sea Treasure Wreath
Embellish a faux vine wreath with seaside finds. Glue moss, twigs, dried flowers, sand dollars, star fish and seashells to the wreath. At Christmas, add jingle bell charms and a red bow.
Whitewashed Wall Shelf
Add a wall shelf in a whitewash finish. Fill the shelf with candles in ocean hues, small branches of driftwood and a jar of sea glass. Glue shells to wood frames and fill them with family vacation photos. Display a wrought iron mermaid or seahorse sculpture.
Eclectic Wall Art
Install sea life-inspired wall art. Enhance an image of brightly colored coral with white matting and a black metal frame. Use a bamboo frame to showcase a painting of tropical fish. Display black and white prints of star fish, crabs, sand dollars and seashells in burnished gold frames.
Antique Map
Display antique maps of your beach house's location. If historic maps are not available, get a similar look with maps printed on antiqued parchment paper.
