I love your style and feel so refreshed after viewing your homes. Thanks for taking the time to share them with us! Do you think one need be near a body of water to decorate coastal style?
Hi Crystal,
You definitely don’t need to be close to the water to bring some coastal elements into your home. Live with what you love!

Loving this place, especially with our proximity to the ocean right now. I agree, you can be on the prairies and have coastal decor!
