collections of cutting boards , new and thirfted, are fantastic decorating ideas for the coastal grandmother aesthetic

A bowl of fresh lemons or oranges is always perfect!

fresh hydrangeas in a vase is never wrong!!

You want your kitchen to be the heart of your home. It should be a place where you can enjoy coffee for hours. Think of all the comforts of a grandma’s kitchen with a relaxed coastal vibe. We want comfortable cozy without the clutter.

Pro Tip:

Rattan kitchen chairs warm up an all white kitchen

Not sure about a shell or anchor item? Ask yourself:

“Would I see this in a nice seaside cottage? Or in a cheap motel gift shop?”

If it leans motel, you know what to do—put it back!

Practical Details that Feel Luxe

. • Matching Dinnerware – You need a set of white ceramic dish sets. They offer that crisp, coastal feel.

   •   Quality Cookware – No one sees your pots and pans when they’re in the cupboard, but you do. You deserve some “I feel fancy” moments—even if you’re just making eggs!

. Washable cloth napkins, pretty , sustainably, and always perfect

      A set of enamel cast iron pots in sea salt is both useful and pretty. I have the whole collection, and I adore them! the blue color I have is called SEA SALT

Learn from My Mistakes (Less is More!)

In my first little Florida condo, I decorated with mermaids and seashells everywhere. It looked a bit tacky, like a gift shop, but I loved it at the time! Admittedly, I went a little overboard decorating with beach signs and seashells. The result? My home looked like a mermaid birthday party. Oops. Over the years my taste grew up, and I replaced those small impulse things with quality items that will be in style always

Moral of the Story?

One pretty conch shell on the windowsill = chic.

Twenty shells everywhere? = Why is there sand in my coffee?

4. Just Remember…

Just Remember…coastal touches

✔️ Stick with light neutrals.

✔️ Sprinkle in coastal accents (like that pinch of sea salt in a recipe—delicate but essential).

✔️ Keep it cozy, practical, and “come on in and chat” friendly.
