Vintage Beach Decor

I moved into a basement suite last year. The living room reminded me of a ballet studio because of the light coloured laminate wood floors, unfinished wood wainscoting and large mirror. The mirror was taken down and the wainscoting was painted white (Cloud White). Most of the suite was painted a pale turquoise (Arctic Blue) and the rest was painted light beige (White Sand.) Some of this décor is recycled from my previous post Paris Bathroom Décor. I was going for a beachy feel. (Paint from Benjamin Moore)

Here is a look at my suite...

This shell bowl came from a garage sale, like a few 

of my items.

This old dresser was painted white and I switched out the old knobs to glass ones and the drawer pulls to silver ones.
