Create a holiday feeling in your home – 7 tips for Mediterranean décor
1. INSPIRATION FROM THE GENTLE WAVES
Feel an affinity with nature and the sea by using Mediterranean décor with wavy, undulating shapes such as vases, textiles or porcelain and bring to mind the waves' beautiful patterns and harmonious mood. The undulating shapes are really on trend right now so feel very stylish in the home.
Decorate your home with undulating patterns with pillows such as the Wave pillowcases from Fine Little Day and bring to mind thoughts of the Mediterranean.

2. SHELLS FROM THE SEA
A big trend this year is to decorate with interior details that are inspired by beautiful seashells and rustic oysters picked out in porcelain, vases or posters. Choose a decorative oyster bowl for a conversation starter at your dinner party or place a seashell vase on your patio for a memorable centre piece with a real Mediterranean feel.
Set the table with an oyster-shaped bowl for your starter to enhance your dinner table setting.

3. FURNISH WITH LOVELY BLUE ACCENTS
Nothing says Mediterranean décor like the colour of the sea so move the sea into your home by adding soft textiles and interior details in blue accents that bring the room to life - because it is by the sea that we gather new energy. The colour blue has the ability to create peace and harmony in the home and is associated with the sky and the sea.
