Coastal Holiday

By Julie Liebetreu

Earlier this month, I was featured in On the Coast Magazine for coastal holiday decor. Holidays on the coast can be one of the most beautiful times of the year. Often the unexpected is the most wonderful way to create that coastal element of design. Bringing nature in during the holidays is a great way to create a warm, coastal holiday home.  

A simple sand dollar hung with a ribbon pinned to the back of a hostess chair is a great way to give that coastal touch.

Mercury glass and burlap are wonderful elements to complement to coastal holiday décor.

The possibilities are endless.  Find your inspiration from the beautiful area we live in.  Why not decorate for the holidays to match our lifestyle?

Coastal Decorating Must Haves:

1 – – You can never have enough wire ribbon and it can be used year after year.

Wire ribbon can make even the novice decorator look professional.

2 – – Burlap, Mercury Glass, Natural Coral, Driftwood, and Candles.

3 – – Battery Candles with timers can be placed everywhere.

4 – – Nest Holiday Classic Candle and Scented Reeds, available at
