3 Stylish (and Affordable!) Ways to Bring the “Seaside Cottage” Trend to Life
Pull up a wicker chair and grab your best “staring wistfully at the ocean” cardigan: The seaside cottage trend is here to stay. We love this look for its serene color palette, natural materials, and overall organic vibe. Another reason to love it? How easy it is to bring to life in any space.
With on-trend, affordable furniture and decor from Walmart, you can give any (or every) room a touch of coastal charm with quality pieces that will last way beyond the seaside high season. Here’s how to bring the look to your living room, bedroom, and back patio.
Look #1: Seaside Cottage Living Room
No matter how far inland you are, the right combo of colors and textures can make you feel like you’re lounging on the coast. Natural touches like woven candle holders and a rustic jute area rug give a sophisticated beachy feel. Add a velvety sofa in aquatic green and a cozy midweight knit throw, and you’ll swear you feel an ocean breeze out the window.
Look #2: Seaside Cottage Bedroom
With its calming colors and serene patterns, Seaside Cottage is an especially dreamy design style for the bedroom. Crisp paisley sheets paired with a floral-stitched Matelassé quilt give “beach house bedding” in the best way. The subdued hues of a coastal landscape painting and the weathered charm of a sculptural bedside lamp help you achieve vacation-level ZZZ’s.
Look #3: Seaside Cottage Patio
Unsurprisingly, the seaside cottage trend shines outside! Channel the colors of the coast with a sophisticated seating set in creamy white and blond wood tones, and add an elegant blue patterned area rug. Finish with a natural jute ottoman and a whimsically scalloped sun umbrella, and you’re ready for a quiet afternoon with a good book or sunset happy hour with friends.
