A handwoven jute rug adds texture and warmth to your floor while keeping with the natural, earthy tones of your beachy theme. It’s durable and brings a grounded, organic feel to the space.

Add a touch of the ocean to your seating with throw pillows in shades of blue and green, perhaps with subtle palm tree or wave patterns. They’re an easy way to incorporate color while keeping things cozy. Pottery Barn had a great selection.

Large prints or canvases featuring serene ocean scenes, palm trees, or coastal landscapes can tie the whole room together. I'm sticking with neutral frames or light wood to maintain the natural, beachy vibe.

I love this room spray for winter! I actualy spray my Xmas trees with it too instead of using it just as a room spray.
Yankee Candle Balsam & Cedar Concentrated Room Spray
Love fall scents, this is a good one, the crispness of the apple offsets the pumpkin so it's not total pumpkin overkill.

Smells like fall. Delicious! My husband even complimented the scent and he's not a candle fan like me.

It is very well made and was easy to assemble. The cushions are thick and very comfortable. This chair is big enough to curl up in and read a book. Love that there are adjustable feet on the bottom.
