9 Amazing Coastal Farmhouse Decor Ideas

Coastal farmhouse decor helps you create a very peaceful and inviting style. Check out some ways to incorporate this style into your own home decor. No matter your skill level or budget there is something in these ideas for everyone. 

1. Rugs

Rugs are so easy to switch out and they can truly bring a farmhouse feel to a room. To add the coastal decor to the farmhouse, find a rug with a pattern, but stick with a neutral beach color like this chic indoor/outdoor rug in the color “sand.”

You can place rugs under a table, in hallways… really anywhere! They are a great way to mix coastal and farmhouse styles together simply. 

2. Painted Furniture 

Repurposing furniture is a great way to add coastal farmhouse decor to your home. Take an older piece of furniture and paint it any shade of white and distress it. Once you are done, it will have a farmhouse look and then you can add some coastal decor accents on top!

We all have mason jars in our cabinets – not being used. Simply gather a few jars and paint them in any coastal shade of blue you want. Alternatively, you can just buy blue mason jars online.

4. Coastal Mirror Made With Driftwood

Adding driftwood to household decor can help bring that beachy vibe to a room. Hanging a mirror with pieces of driftwood along the edges adds can add the perfect coastal farmhouse touch. It really helps add natural beauty to your home decor.                  

5. Farmhouse Table With Coastal Adornments

Having a simple farmhouse table with beach-inspired accents on top is a really great way to create coastal farmhouse decor. A white table runner with added seashells and succulents would do the job perfectly!

6. Home Sweet Home Sign With Shells

Decorating isn’t just for inside your home. Having a cute sign outside your front door is a great way to bring your style outdoors.

Making a coastal farmhouse-inspired home sweet home sign is simple. Just secure three long wooden boards together and paint in white the letters H, M, and E vertically down the wood. Then, rather than painting the O in home, make the shape out of a different assortment of seashells and glue them in place.

If you’re not in the mood for a DIY, you can find similar designs online. This sign really helps bring that farmhouse and coastal decor into one piece.

7. Rustic Pillow Covers

A simple look of cream white and teal blue stripes on the edge of pillow covers can help mend the farmhouse and coastal themes into one. You can use these on a sofa, bed, or even in a wooden chair that sits in the corner. 

8. Glass Bottles 

Setting some rustic glass bottles around in different colors in all different shades, shapes, and appearance can help bring the old farmhouse look in with a coastal feel. Try adding some white splashes of paint to some of the bottles to make them appear even older than they are.

Using a beach-inspired colored burlap wreath really helps bring a coastal vibe right to your front door. You can even attach a metal welcome sign to your wreath to help blend the farmhouse feel with the coastal color scheme.
