Love the Sunset Key Guest Cottages seaside-chic look? Here's how to get it in your home:

 | 1 Paint The perfect base for any coastal chic room is the perfect white. A cool white channels a crisp New England vibe, while warm, vanilla-inflected off-whites create more of a tropical, islands vibe. The paint meisters at Ralph Lauren Home nail white like no one else. (And they're not too shabby on the complementary island-y jewel tones, either, if you're looking for a warm and welcoming yellow, like the one pictured above). Go to rlhome.polo.com to see the palette (you can buy it at Home Depot stores in Canada). |
 | 2 White sheets Nothing says "four-star hotel" more than silky cotton 400-thread count sheets in classic white. The extra deep fitted sheets make bed-making less taxing for those of us who don't have maid service. President's Choice Home luxury bedding: presidentschoice.ca |
 | 3 Jute rug A sisal, sea grass or jute rug is a fast and easy way to give your home an organic, natural element. A canvas binding will give the piece a clean, finished look. IKEA's classic Egeby rug comes in different sizes and has a non-slip latex backing for safety. ikea.ca |
 /td> | 4 Wood blinds Enhance the ambiance as well as privacy of your home with these slatted wood blinds. Choose a light stain for a coastal chic vibe, or a deep, rich tone for more of a Pacific islands feel. For a Key West look, a mid-tone stain is versatile and classic: blindstogo.com |
 | 5 Wicker chair Since the Canadian climate is anything but tropical, all-weather resin "wicker" can be better than the real thing. It won't crack or unravel (even if you put it outdoors), and it'll always look its best. The chic super-dark stain paired with an electric blue cushion makes this anything but your grandma's wicker. (Switch things up by changing cushion cover patterns periodically.) All Weather Wicker Classic Collection, restorationhardware.com |
