Have you gone ‘Cool, Calm and Coastal yet’? Hurry because the tuiss special offer ends soon. We are offering 20% off our painted wooden blinds, the perfect addition for a coastal inspired room.

So, how ‘to do’ coastal without looking like a gift shop!

  • Clearly white and cream are key to the scheme and blue is a popular accent colour. Be ever so slightly wary of adding red into the mix, you may end up more union jack than coastal chic!
  • Floors are often either scrubbed or maybe painted. If that’s too cold opt for sisal or coir carpeting.
  • Nick nacks with a coastal theme are a must, think shells, boats, fish, crabs and beachcombed finds.
  • A striped roller blind is a popular choice and ever so slightly nautical.
  • Include lots of texture from wicker baskets and chairs to bobbly throws and heavy rugs.
  • We would say this but wooden blinds at the window will add a fantastic finishing touch for a cool, calm and coastal look.

Here are some great wooden blinds and I’ve added in some other options too that really work that coastal look. Get totally inspired by the great room shot too.
