Creating a Summer Retreat at Home
How beautiful is this hand-blown glass pendant? The perfect way to mix vintage + modern and bring the coast a little closer to you: ocean colored glass, with a simple shape inspired by vintage wine jugs.
This beautiful flared bamboo serving tray is both unique and functional! It brings an exotic feel into a space, and I like that it can be used for everything from displaying decor to serving drinks. 14".
These bowls for serving food or even storing accessories (like jewelry) bring some color and fun into your space. I'd set one atop a stack of books, or mix them in with a table setting for a refreshing look.
Sweet, simple dishtowels with a classic ticking stripe pattern - in the perfect shade of ocean blue (to make you feel that much closer to the beach!). I love how these instantly freshen up a kitchen space.
This vintage-inspired drink caddy is a wonderful example of a simple piece that can make the everyday a little more fancy. It's both functional and beautiful - whether you're using it as decoration, or for carrying drinks onto the patio for a lovely dinner at home.
Thanks to its subtle, pretty pattern this crocheted cushion cover actually looks quite modern. It'd be a perfect way to freshen up your sofa or bed and create a cozy retreat. I think it's a fun way to add interest to a beach or tropical theme!
A classic herringbone throw is the perfect way to add charm and make a room feel cozier. These are heirloom-quality and come in beautiful colors - the Apple or Island Blue would be great if you're looking to create a little seaside getaway vibe.
Big, soft white towels! In 600-gram cotton. A wonderful way to make a bath feel a little more luxurious at home.
This tropical-inspired ladder would make such a fun (and functional!) accessory in any space. Hang big white towels on it to make your bath feel more like a spa, or use it to display your collection of colorful scarves in your bedroom. And bonus: its small footprint makes it great for small spaces.
There is just something about a crisp, white shower curtain that makes a bathroom feel more like a hotel + spa. This soft cotton one has a subtle pattern, and the fresh white color instantly brightens up the room.
This natural jute rug is not only beautiful and sustainably harvested, but it also adds comfort and a bit of island flair to a room. Next to a great piece of furniture, a jute rug is the one thing I'd splurge on to really make a space!
Baskets that are both practical and pretty! I'd happily collect these. They have vintage character and make it fun to organize all of your things to make yourself feel a little more pampered at home.
How fancy! I like this beautiful tri-panel screen for separating spaces or making a little corner of a room feel more secluded. These also come in lots of fabric-covering options.
The gold, "lightly wrinkled texture" on the edges of these dinner plates brings so much beauty + interest to a table setting (and adds some flair to any plain set of dishes!). Almost makes you feel like you're dining at a fancy restaurant on an island retreat - except within the comforts of your own home.
This accent lamp not only has an attractive modern silhouette, but the product description also notes that its shape mimics an antique bottle (giving it a sort of vintage-modern charm!). I love that it can be dressed up or down, and works well with a vintage, tropical, or even modern theme.
Faux grass is one of my favorite ways to add a botanical touch to a space, plus it's simple to arrange inside a big jar or over-sized glass bottle.
These found vintage bottles instantly transport you to somewhere far away - they've been collected from various European restaurants and would make beautiful additions to any room.
Painted bright, gold, or lightly stained, these simple Ikea mirrors would make a fun (and affordable) impact in a room if grouped in multiples. It'd also be a great way to display little keepsakes (i.e. photos + tickets) tucked into the sides, creating a unique "gallery" in your home and providing an imaginary escape.
Normally considered an essential for your guests, I think a glass + carafe set is also the perfect way to make yourself feel relaxed and refreshed at home, just as if you were staying away somewhere. Bonus: this sleek design also doubles as a pretty accessory.
The deeply saturated color on this rug makes it a moody and fun addition to a room (it looks like something you'd find in a beach house!). size: 4x6'.
