How to Give Your Home the Coastal Chic Look

Coastal home decor never goes out of style. It's a beautifully evocative and wonderfully calming style of interior decoration. It's also super-easy to achieve with just a few accessories and some beach wall art from Fun Sign Factory!

The coastal look is characterized by a chic, muted color palette of soft sandy beige and cool ocean blue. It's inspired by classic New England homes; their white clapboard design is the cornerstone of the coastal look. And the great thing about this style of beach home decor is you can keep it simple and neutral or add quirky touches of character to suit your own taste.

Whitewashed wood furniture should be teamed with lots of texture from hessian fabrics and patterns like ticking stripes. Coastal chic is the perfect way to style your home in summer but it also works for winter; just warm it up with fluffy rugs and chunky knitted blankets tossed casually on the couch.

Accessories-wise, driftwood art, and raw materials rule. Try positioning small boat ornaments on windowsills and perhaps a wooden bird or two. Shells and starfish motifs in cream, white, or gray should be dotted about; use them on fabrics or as decorative accessories placed on coffee tables.

Watercolor paintings of your favorite coastline will make your walls sing, especially if they're awash with blue and gray tones to represent windswept waves. You could create a focal point in the form of a gallery wall by mixing coastal wall art with a handful of wall hangings from our beach sign collection.

Seaside decor has a wonderful soul-soothing vibe that will have you yearning for your next vacation. It also makes any room feel more relaxed and look shipshape!

Nature Wall Art to Make You Excited for the Great Outdoors

You've survived most of winter! Yay! Go you! You've shaken off the post-Christmas blues, vowed to create a New You, and have even *whisper it* started to mention spring. So now it's time to get back to being yourself after the dull, lifeless month that is January. And if you're a nature-loving type, then that means exploring the Great Outdoors! With that said, it's best to take baby steps when coming out of hibernation; start by adorning your home with our nature wall signs to get some inspiration. Here are our favorites:

Cabin Life Rustic Cabin Sign

For those who love the simple life (time spent cozied up with family in a log cabin by the lake) this design is perfect. It has a beautiful woodland scene in rustic colors, plus a charming slogan that epitomizes the outdoorsy life. Display it in your home office to keep you motivated, or hang it on the wall of your cabin for a country-inspired look.

The Lake is Calling Inspirational Quote Sign

Water has such a magnetic effect on us, doesn't it? It calls to us, inviting us to relax on riverbanks, dive into lakes, and paddle out to sea to satisfy our curiosity. We long to be by the water's edge; to experience total tranquility and freedom. Does all of this sound familiar? Then pin this lake house sign on your wall as a reminder to feed your soul with time out at the lake.

Welcome to our Campsite Camping Sign

Some outdoorsy folks need to get even closer to nature - to feel the grass beneath their feet and camp out under the stars. This campfire sign was designed for those brave explorers who like nothing but the fabric of their tent to come between themselves and the wilderness!

Popular Patriotic Signs to Help You Celebrate Presidents Day

Mark the date in your diary: February 18th is Presidents Day this year. So it's time you raised the flag on high, draped your home in star-spangled banners, and bedecked every room in the red, white, and blue!

If you love your country, then make a toast to George Washington, to the honorable leaders who've followed in his footsteps, and to the history of the land of the free itself. To help you celebrate in all-American style, we've listed the best historical-themed and patriotic wall art in our store.

For the love of old-time USA - this Western home decor

Dial it back to the days of gun-slingin', rodeo-winnin' cowboys prior to the classic era of United States politics. This was the pre-Lincoln age of the Gold Rush; a thrilling but often brutal time in America's history when you had to be quick on the draw! Today's America may feel somewhat like the Wild West, but if you long for a simpler time of sheriffs, spurs, and side-saddle riding, this personalized sign will appeal.

For your American action hero - this military wall decor

It's not just the people in power who should be celebrated; the brave men and women who keep our country safe deserve a tribute too. From the police to the armed forces, these uniformed action heroes make America great all the time. We have a selection of patriotic wall decor that can be personalized with military seals and the name of your hero.

For freedom of speech - this funny quote sign

OK, so this one technically isn't so patriotic! It's a light-hearted take on the workings of American politics that'll raise a smile and spark a debate among your guests. With that stars and stripes background, it still flies the flag for the good ole' U.S. of A, showing you have faith in your country, if not in the folks in charge of it!

Putting politics aside, if you feel a swell of pride when you think of your country's ability to endure, then share your thoughts on our Facebook Page.
