There is something that is so comforting about being near the sea. You can smell the salty air before you even see the water. The cool sea breezes are irresistible on a hot inland afternoon. I love strolling up and down the coastline searching for shells, sea glass and other treasures washed ashore by the rolling waves as sea gulls circle overhead.
Since I only get to visit the ocean and don’t have the luxury of living on the coast I like to bring a little of the sea into my home via fabrics that compliment my seashore treasures. In fact, I’ve noticed that nautical fabric is all the rage in apparel for kids and adults alike. So, if you’re looking to freshen up your home, add a few of these decorative fabrics in your cart today!
If you are planning a seaside picnic this summer or an ocean-themed outdoor party then pick up a few yards of our Nantucket Decorative Check fabric to make some quick and easy tablecloths for the occasion. Anchors, sail boats, lighthouses and steering wheels are depicted on this fun gingham fabric.
Our Sail Away fabric features the grandeur of stately lighthouses standing tall as sail boats drift by. Mariner’s compasses are also scattered across the print. If you are thinking to add a nautical theme to your home this is a wonderful choice; it coordinates with so many other fabrics beautifully. Simply choose the colors you would like to highlight and accent accordingly.
Graceful white sails filled with sea breezes cause these sail boats to skip through the waves on our Set Sail decorative fabric. This print is great for retro-style projects. While it is perfect for home decor, I am envisioning a really stylish tote bag made from this fabric. If you are looking for a more subtle version, then check out our Set Sail in gray.
