What is the Coastal Christmas Theme?
When you think of a coastal Christmas theme you might be thinking of seashells and cliché motifs like anchors. The coastal interior style has experiences a modern evolution leading to styles coined as modern coastal, the ever popular coastal grandmother and recent TikTok sensation coastal cowgirl. All of these coastal updates have brought new modern flairs to coastal decor including what we expect from a modern coastal Christmas theme.
1. Add Blue Ornaments
A perfect subtle way to make your Christmas tree feel more coastal is adding blue ornaments of various tones. Use neutral ornaments as well to add a calming note to your tree.
2. Lean into Natural Greenery
Natural greenery makes any Christmas space feel more natural and nature based. Green acts as a classic base for coastal decor without appearing mismatched.
3. Find Rattan or Jute Elements
Rattan or jute-like elements like these rattan material decorative trees make a space feel warm and bring in the subtle colors of sand and beachy rope materials. These are definitely a Christmas coastal decor must have.
4. Opt for Light wood tones
Light wood tones remind us of drift wood material. Light wood tones like these modern houses bring warmth to a space and bring in a coastal touch mixed with other elements.
5. Use Gold Accents
Gold accents bring warmth resembling the beachy rays of sunshine you might be missing around this time of year and pair well with other natural tones.
6. Add Light Blue Tones throughout
Adding decor pieces with lighter blue tones helps a space feel warmer and resemble a beach landscape. If you are looking to create a bold look you could also consider adding navy.
7. Give traditional pieces a Costal touch
Look around your Christmas bins for pieces your can transform with a little bit of paint. These traditional Christmas houses were painted with blue paint and fit my coastal Christmas theme a lot better than the red and brown colors they were originally.
8. Create a Winter Wonderland
A winter wonderland theme is very common, usually including blue tones, snowflakes and lots of white elements. This theme is a perfect complement to the coastal decor theme – who says there can’t be snow on the beach.
9. Find Juniper
Seek out juniper – these type of greenery includes natural blue berries. These blue berries are a great pop of blue that ties traditional Christmas time greenery with coastal blue tones.
