Modern Beach Decor

Summer is here and like the rest of the world, our mind is at the beach. We're so sick of the typical beach decor though. For some reasons it's always the tiresome shabby chic stuff. One of the best beach homes we've seen is in the movie "As Good As It Gets" with Dianne Keaton and Jack Nicholson. Have you seen it? The movie is so so (Dianne Keaton was totally annoying), oh but the decor is wonderful! If you have a chance, rent the video. We guarantee you'll love it (the decor, that is).

Here are some great items for a beach home. We hope you'll enjoy them!

Pretty Upholstered Beds


Don't you just love upholstered beds? We do. It's a great way to express your personality and your style. You can make it as luxurious or as simple as you want, just by choosing the right fabric. You can be creative--adding nickel nailheads, tufting, or trims can just change the look completely.

We found a great upholstery company based here in Los Angeles that makes wonderful beds, Nathan Anthony. The beds range from $1800-2500 depending on the fabric. We prefer to do it in our own fabrics (COM-customer own material).

Here are some of our favorites:


Tatum Bed-This bed is pretty. It is similiar to the bed Charlotte has in Sex in the City. You can dress this up considerably with a nice expensive fabric, or keep it simple with a simple cotton stripe or floral fabric.


Elliott Bed-This bed is nice and masculine. We like doing this bed in a simple linen or velvet, preferably solid.


We like this bed for its coziness. This will be wonderful in a velvet or silk fabric.
We like this bed for a tween, or a young girl. It's not too childish yet it looks fresh & young. We love doing this in a pretty floral.
This bed is so pretty for a Hollywood Regency look. A nice faux leather would be fantastic with ith.
We like the simplicity of this bed. We do it often in faux suede.

As simple as this bed is, it's our favorite.
