The Secret to Making Your Home Feel Like the Coast

Want your space to feel like a breezy beach cottage? This blog covers easy tricks to help you get there. We focus on using Beach Theme Wall Art and seashell wall decor to create a calming coastal vibe. We also dive into DIY projects, smart tips, and ready-made art from Spice Islands Coastal. Ideal for artists, crafters, and anyone who lives for the beach.

What Does a Coastal Home Feel Like?

Think calm. Think open. Think natural. A coastal home has a breezy feel. Not just blue paint and a driftwood mirror. It’s the art. It’s the textures. And yes—it’s the shells. That’s where Beach Theme Wall Art comes in. It sets the tone. You feel like you’re near the shore, even if you’re miles away.

Why You Need Beach-Theme Wall Art

Your walls speak for your space. Want them to whisper "ocean breeze"? Go for beach-themed pieces. Look for shadow boxes, prints with soft coastal tones, or shell mosaics. If you love working with your hands, make your own. We carry floating shadow box frames in two sizes—perfect for craft displays. You just need glue, a good eye, and a few great shells.

And don’t worry about sourcing. We stock bulk shells like Pectens, Turris, Abalone, and more. Artists love our quality and prices. Add to that some pearl-like beads or rhinestone ribbon, and you’re all set.

Add Seashell Wall Decor That Pops

Shells aren’t just for bowls. They belong on your walls too. Use seashell wall decor to add shape and shine to flat spaces. Go for patterns that mimic waves or the spirals of nature. It’s not about matching everything. It’s about pulling from the coast’s own playbook.

We’ve got cabochons, beach sand, and even high-end rattan braids. Mix those in with your wall hangings for something that really stands out. And if you’ve got leftovers? Don’t toss them. Use them in smaller frames or our DIY shell art kits.

Frame It Right with Coastal Touches

A great frame can make shell art shine. Our rattan picture frames feel like summer. They’re natural, light, and timeless. We even have one made for those special beach photos—family trips, seaside weddings, or your dog catching a wave.

Pair your shells with soft wood or white-washed frames. Keep it clean. Keep it fresh. That’s what coastal is all about.

DIY Shell Art Projects That Actually Work

Not every project turns out great. But ours will. Why? We make it simple. Our kits come with everything you need—shells, a design plan, and the frame. You bring the glue and the vision.

We sell shell packs in 1.1 lbs. or bulk. Pick your size, pick your colors, and get to work. These aren’t cheap craft shells. They’re the real deal. Perfect for artists who care about detail.

Use Color, Texture, and Sand for Effect

Blue and white aren’t the only coastal colors. Think coral, tan, soft green. Think layers—just like the beach itself. Add sand under glass for depth. Use braided rattan as trim. Stack small shells for dimension.

It’s the little things that make a piece feel finished. Don’t overdo it. Let nature do the talking.

Make It Yours with Finished Pieces

Not everyone wants to craft. That’s okay. We’ve got finished shell art that’s framed and ready to hang. Some pieces mix printed art with real shells. Others are full-shell mosaics. All are unique.

You won’t find these in big box stores. You’ll find them only here. Our art is made for coastal fans. It’s made for you.

FAQs

1. How do I keep shell wall art from falling apart over time?

Use strong craft glue. Let it dry fully before hanging. Avoid high-humidity areas unless sealed. We suggest light sealing sprays for added strength.

2. Can I mix real shells with printed art?

Yes. It adds depth. Frame your printed piece first, then glue shells along the edges or inside the image for texture.

3. What’s the easiest shell art project for beginners?

Start with our DIY shell art kits. They come with a simple layout and the exact amount of shells. Just follow the design and glue.

4. What if I don’t use all the shells in my bulk order?

Store them in a cool, dry place. Or use them for smaller pieces like fridge magnets, jewelry trays, or mini shadow boxes.

5. Can beach sand really be used in wall art?

Absolutely. Spread it under glass or glue it behind shells for a textured background. We sell fine-grade sand just for this.
