Trend alert / seashell decor

I’m at my happiest when on a beach or watching the ocean, and I have nostalgic memories about collecting pockets full of shells when holidaying as a kid (chanting ‘she sells sea shells by the sea shore’ on repeat as I went). So I’ve always loved seeing seashells used as home decor to add a touch of natural beauty to any room. However I’ve also seen a few questionable seashell interior trends - remember the glass bowls featuring a mix of sand, dried starfish, shells and fairy lights that tended to get stinky after a while?

In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in seashell home decor, and many makers are dreaming up new and creative ways of incorporating seashells into interiors. From small accents like coasters and bowls to larger statement pieces like light fittings and wall art, there are many options available for bringing the beauty of the beach into your home. We’ve rounded up some of the best seashell inspired pieces below.

NB: The thought just struck me that maybe my name has something to do with this interior crush!
