I was scrolling through Instagram earlier and saw a countdown of days until Christmas. My heart skipped a beat. It’s really not too far off and there is so much to do still. This year I want to get a head start on decorating so that we can sit back, relax, and enjoy the season! First stop is the foyer. Cue the holiday music please… “We’re walkin’ in a Coastal Christmasland“.
Our area is lucky if it sees any snow until late January or February, so in the meantime, give me starfish, sand and seaglass! Kirklands sent me a surprise box of coastal goodies from their Nautical Noel collection and gave me a challenge to create something lovely. The foyer is now all dressed up in beachy aqua blues, warm glowing golds, and soft snowy whites.
This cute Santa Claws Pillow adds a bit of whimsy to an otherwise elegant space and reminds us to not take ourselves too seriously. 😉
The wood oars that have been displayed in the kids playroom are now resting along the stairs, beckoning someone to take them boating.
This glass and rope lantern is one of my favorite accessories. We have used it all over the house, inside and out, spring, summer, fall and now as winter approaches.
Fresh garland isn’t quite yet available here, so the next best thing is to bring out the artificial garland. Which is probably good, because picking pine needles out of the shag carpet is not fun. The garland is adorned with shimmery aqua ombre ribbon, starfish, pinecones, and beautiful rope wrapped blue glass ornaments. I love them so much, I placed them everywhere!
A quaint Seas and Greetings Art welcomes friends and family as they enter.
It’s a coastal Christmasland for sure! 
Feel free to explore and navigate through the Nautical Noel collection or you can shop all the Christmasland collections.

Everything is just beautiful! Love it!
Thanks Tammy!
I am adjusting to decorating my new Low Country style home and coastal is the way to go! I love your style, so beautiful! I will be sharing this over at Twitter and FB and pinning this! Happy Thanksgiving!!
You are too kind Chloe! Thank you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving too!
Everything looks beautiful! Such good taste! 🙂
Thank you for the giveaway!
Thank you Karen! And best of luck with the giveaway!
I absolutely love those rope and blue glass ornaments – and those oars! Saving this idea for next Christmas, when we will hopefully be back on the east coast!
Aww, thank you so much Kristin!
I could really use some new throw pillows!
A girl can never have enough throw pillows right? 😉
Oh I love the nautical noel items you received. Goes great with my new family room decor.
THank you Jennifer!
Always Beautiful !!
I love a beachy Christmas!
Well, I just left Kirklands. They have so many great Christmas items. Their candles and the beautiful trees. I don’t know if this is my favorite item, but I did they they were cute…it’s the elf body ornaments. The little legs coming out of the top of the tree was just really cute.
I featured their Sea-sonal Christmas collection already on my blog… and now I see it “in action”. The space looks wonderful… dreamy like a winter wonderland! They have tons of cute tree ornaments too.
So many great things that it’s just too hard to pick a favorite!
kim you knocked it out of the park, all of this is gorgeous i love the rope and glass lantern and have seen it all over your house, but with the blue balls and white candle it is awesome xx
I love this giveaway…almost as much as I love shopping at Kirkland’s!
I just love this. Those white tipped trees, where are they from?

I really love the Blue & Brown Family Tree Collage Frame, but I also am digging your “Seas and Greetings” sign!
I was in Kirkland’s (again) yesterday and saw the wreath and the Seas and Greetings sign, but passed them because I had spent a bunch already. Now that I see how pretty they are in your foyer, I will HAVE to go back!
LOVE so many things – hard to choose – I love traditional country type Christmas decorations. However – I’m totally envious of @lizmariegalvan decorations on Instagram!
Can I just have on of each? http://www.kirklands.com/content.jsp?pageName=Cozy-Christmas&icid=MCholidayCC
You always have the cutest things! And this is no exception.

Thank you Tammy! The paint color is SeaSalt by Sherwin Williams.
Great stuff! I’m a big fan of Kirkland’s and especially love their nautical collection.
Very Beautiful!! Love the coastal/beachy look. I just purchased a condo in Florida and am looking for decorating ideas and paint colors to complete a coastal look. Do you know what the color is on the wall?
Thanks so much
Oh Kim! I would love one of each of those beautiful goodies from Kirkland’s my blue living coastal living room. It would certainly be at home there! Love it all, just beautiful!
I went to their site and would love to get one of their throw blankets for the couch.
I hav e been decorating with Beachy items for about 20 years now. With a mix of vintage. It is different and everyone loves my style.
Who doesn’t love everything from Kirkland?!
I could use a pillow or tow and always coastal ornaments or a lantern to put ornaments and seashells in.
Thanks so much
Love the coastal Christmas items…and I especially like the blue color or teal…This is my style and color as I live in Florida. .
Picking out something I didn’t like would be easier! Love Kirkland’s! And your beachy Christmas is wonderful!
I LOVE Kirklands so it’s really hard to pick just one product but I am really loving the glittered burlap centerpiece! It’s perfect for a winter party!
I love everything at Kirkland’s! I’m loving the Snowman & Friends LED Canvas Art Print.
I always find something I gotta have at Kirklands!
Your entryway looks so beautiful! I love the colors and the coastal feel. I like the lanterns and the pillows. Did you see the seashell Christmas tree one? Love it!
Love these ideas!
Love their nautical collection!
I love the Powder Blue Tufted Storage Bench – must have!!!
Love this coastal decor for Florida
I adore Kirklands anytime of the years. Enjoy the Sea sons.
I love the “Glitter Peacock Feather Ornament”!
Oh my gosh – this is just gorgeous –
I always feel you need snow at Christmas ( I’m in Montreal – so we usually do have it )
You’ve proven to me you don’t – pinning !
