Retreat with a Neutral Palette

Dear Crafts,

After spending a few days on the beach gazing at blue water and sinking my toes into the sand, I understand why some homeowners decide to surround themselves with beachy decor all year. There's something very relaxing about watery blue walls, sandy neutrals, and seashell-filled accessories. Turn your home into a relaxing retreat by taking cues from these summer-loving homes.

Happy Decorating, — Veronica
