Seashells and Corals in Interior Decor
The idea of creating eco-friendly homes is now popular as ever. Perhaps it is not easy to build an entirely environmentally safe house, but using natural products for interior decoration is possible for everyone. Different natural materials often can be seen as a decor in homes and apartments. The owners are proud to say that it is natural, and perhaps even created with their own hands. Our today’s article will focus on subjects such as seashells and corals. We’ll talk about how you can use these objects in your home decor.
Decor Ideas with Seashells and Corals
Shells used as vases
Summer has almost arrived. And many has planned a trip to the seaside. They, of course, will bring home shells and corals as souvenirs. To ensure that these items do not become household trash, you should figure out how they can be given a second life in a new place. And here are some ideas, most of which can be implemented with your own hands, even without any special skills.
Decor of vases and clocks
You can update an old vase or a clock with medium-sized shells by pasting them ( put a picture or create a “creative mess”). You can also make a clock in nautical style by hand, laying out a mosaic of shells around the clockface.
The most common vase becomes a stylish piece of decor, if you put corals in it. These marine “flowers” will delight your households for a very long time. In addition, any glass container turns into a beautiful vase, if to create the illusion of seaweed ( germinated seeds) with starfish and seashells inside.
Vase of large shells
Since the size of shells may be different, very large specimens can themselves be used as vases or flower pots. If you have done some home accessories in a marine style, support the theme of the sea with stands for flowers, vases, etc. in the form of large shells.
Decor in the bathroom
Of course, shells will look most organic in the “water element” – in the bathroom. And one popular option to use them here is a frame for a mirror incrusted with shells.
Inlaid furniture
Having a lot of shells allows making a real designer furniture. Tables, chests of drawers and cabinets will sparkle with new colors, with a mosaic of shells.
