6 Ideas for Decorating Nautical Rooms | Sea Life Cabinet Knobs

Looking for ideas on how to decorate a nautical themed room? You’ve come to the right place. Here at Sea Life Cabinet Knobs, we’re experts in all things nautical. Since 2000, we’ve helped many customers bring their visions of a nautical kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, or living room to life. Here are six nautical room decor ideas to get you started.

 1. Add Nautical Cabinet Knobs

When it comes to nautical room decor, it’s all in the details. Take a look at the current knobs on your cabinets. Do they remind you of a boat on the water or life at sea? If not, it’s time to replace them with nautical cabinet knobs that feature seahorses, starfish, or sand dollars.

Not only are our nautical cabinet knobs a breeze to install, they’re backed by a lifetime warranty and guaranteed to last for years to come.

 2. Don’t Be Afraid of Pops of Color

While blue and white are the quintessential nautical colors, there’s no reason you can’t deviate from them and add pops of other colors to your room. Consider a cherry red lamp, rug, or artwork. You’ll find that a pop of color makes your room stand out while still allowing it to feel nautical and peaceful.

 3. Incorporate Seashells

To give your nautical room some seaside chic, incorporate seashells. Add a seashell centerpiece or sideline. Less is more so it’s a good idea to limit the amount of seashells in your room. Remember that too many seashells can be distracting and take away from the overall elegance of your space.

 4. Hang Up a Ship Steering Wheel

Turn your room into the captain’s quarters with a ship steering wheel. It’ll look best when you pair it with furniture that is made of a similar wood finish. You can combine it with some paddles as well as blues, reds, whites, and seashells.

 5. Choose the Right Pillows

A blue and white striped couch may be a bit overwhelming. So, consider adding nautical themed pillows to a neutral colored couch instead. Think pillows with stripes, starfish, and coral. They’ll give your room a relaxing vibe and can easily be swapped for new patterns and designs any time.

 6. Include Rope Decor

Nautical rope decor is a must-have feature in any nautical themed space. You can make or buy a nautical rope clock, mirror, coaster, tablecloth, table runner, curtain, pillow, and more. Just do a quick search for nautical rope decor and you’re sure to find plenty of unique options.

 You don’t need a yacht or view of the water to enjoy a nautical home. By following these tips, you can transform any room into a serene, nautical sanctuary you’re proud to call your own.

If you have a bathroom vanity that has two doors under the sink, the usual thing to do is to put the same pulls or knobs on the doors. You can put the same thing twice, identically shaped and colored knobs, or you can do something else and use figural cabinet knobs.
