Create a coastal shabby chic kitchen with distressed furniture and beach-inspired accents. Choose a color palette of soft blues, whites, and sandy neutrals. Use distressed wooden cabinets and a farmhouse sink. Incorporate seashell or coral motifs in decorative items like wall art or cabinet knobs. Add floral accents through curtains, cushions, and table linens. Complete the look with nautical-inspired lighting fixtures and beach-themed accessories like glass jars filled with seashells.
