When designing your coastal nursery, consider neutral colors such as driftwood gray, warm sand and crisp white. Add color with sea glass inspired muted greens and ocean blues. Look for natural fiber elements such as rattan, seagrass and jute. Weathered wood floors, shiplap and board and batten walls will evoke a relaxed and welcoming mood. Toss in a basket of seashells and ocean treasures for a hint of beachside charm!
