A blue and white color scheme with boating motifs evokes a relaxed, cheerful feel. However, this style can sometimes go awry. Too often, lake homeowners go overboard&#8211; pun intended&#8211; with sailing-related paraphernalia. The result is more junky than sophisticated. When designing a nautical room for your lake house, it\u2019s important to remember that a little boat-inspired charm goes a long way. Thankfully, achieving this whimsical, yet polished balance does not have to be complicated. There are plenty of DIY nautical decor projects that you can begin right now, in quarantine, to revamp your room in time for summer. Check out some of our tips below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-painting-your-walls\">Painting Your Walls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"564\" height=\"376\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Maine-House-Interiors.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12948\" style=\"width:582px;height:388px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Maine-House-Interiors.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Maine-House-Interiors-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mainehouseinteriors.com\/the-village\">Maine House Interiors<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Painting &#8212; or repainting&#8211; your walls is a basic, yet often overlooked tip for designing your nautical room. Although we associate shades like blue, white, red, and yellow with boating, combining these bold colors on one wall may look chaotic.

For a more modern look, use bolder, darker shades of blue to offset bright whites. Doing so will create a stunning contrast while maintaining an elegant appeal.\u201d Katie Mills, a writer for&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/poshh.co.uk\/living\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Poshh Living Magazine<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, agrees, adding, \u201cAbout 80%-90% of the space should be neutral.\u201d Besides blue and white, you can opt for wood tones to lean into a more rustic vibe. As for those bright yellows and reds that we associate with nautical flags&#8211; they work best in smaller doses. While an entirely red accent wall could be overwhelming, painting a single chair in red can add a fun pop of color.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-picking-nautical-items\">Picking Nautical Items<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"564\" height=\"846\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Nautical-Items.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12949\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Nautical-Items.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Nautical-Items-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/135741376253387004\/\">Pinterest<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Finding nautical accent pieces is easier than you think. Often, the best sailing-inspired items are miscellaneous objects found both indoors and outdoors. Katie Mills advises, \u201cTry finding genuine nautical items to use as decor. Oars are the obvious choice and are easy to paint and repaint.\u201d If you have old canoe paddles, try painting a few and hanging them on your wall. While you\u2019re at the boat dock, grab a few twists of rope or nets. Using these nautical objects, you can create plenty of designs. Kate Diaz suggests wrapping natural colored ropes around plant pots or using burlap to create a nautical footstool with glue and a stapler. You may also find nautical objects in other rooms of the house. For instance, if you have a round mirror in the foyer, try moving it to the nautical room, as the circular shape will resemble a ship\u2019s porthole.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-choosing-crafty-projects\">Choosing Crafty Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"648\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Crafts-Tori-Grant-Designs.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12950\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Crafts-Tori-Grant-Designs.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Crafts-Tori-Grant-Designs-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/torigrantdesigns.com\/2014\/02\/10\/anchor-pillow\/\">Tori Grant Designs<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In addition to repurposing boating items as decor, you can also get crafty with everyday materials.
