I recently saw a trend feature on
Elle Decor- Under the Sea .Marine inspired or nautical style is classic but what I loved about this trend alert is that it moved away from the anchors, ropes, navy and white stripes to rich colorful residents of the seas. Corals , squids, gorgeous fish in cobalt, turquoise, tangerine, aqua blues and sea green all invoking the ocean. So I thought I would look through Etsy and see what vendors have to offer in a sea theme that is out of the ordinary.
