Back To Campus Essentials

It's that time of the year again.

House By The Shore can help make your new place feel just like home!

Let's start with the basics:

A Great pair of sheets with easy care that are designed with comfort in mind. You will need plenty of good sleep to keep up with classes, studying and the occasional parties :)

Bath towels that are soft, comfortable and in fun colors to help you kick your day off right.

Proper lighting is a must have and at the correct height for your desk so there's no glare in your eyes for those late nights of cramming. We have lamps that match our storage boxes too - check out the Essentials lighting options we have.

Storage is essential to throw things in before your friends and family come to visit. Our Essentials Storage & Book Boxes are fun, colorful and built to last. They come in sets of 3.
 

Carry your items to class in style with our Sailor Bags:

Our Sailcloth Back Packs are tough stuff with three large compartments.
Plus handy interior pockets to keep small items like cell phones, iPods,
and keys organized and easy to find.
Easy access mesh outer pockets hold water bottles, shoes or gloves. Great for school: Enough room for textbooks, notebooks and binders, along with sports gear or outerwear and lunch. Waterproof linings keep wet clothes separate from books and papers. Wide padded shoulder straps and padded back panel for all day comfort.
Our Sailcloth Computer Bags are great for taking your laptop to class or study sessions. With a padded compartment that fits up to a 17" laptop, an interior section that zips closed for the most important files and two slip in side pockets big enough for files or magazines, there is just tons of room in this sleek, nautical bag. And all of this storage has our waterproof linings and is covered in durable sailcloth to protect your computer. Fold away 'tote' type hand grips and a comfortable shoulder strap.

And finally after a long day of classes your study sessions don't have to be stressful, curl up with a favorite throw and pillow that reminds you of home and have a few extra with lots of color to let your personality shine though.
We wish you a fantastic learning adventure... and try not to party too much!!!!!

Colorful and Fun Kid's Beds Made in USA

Why  Buy American Made Kids Beds?


House by the Shore is obsessed with our collection of beds in our bedroom furniture collection. Our kid’s beds are absolutely adorable in a variety of colors, sizes, and types from daybeds to bunkbeds. One of the things we are most proud of is that are beds are custom and American made!

Finding great furniture for any kid’s room is often not easy. The bed needs to be high quality and durable. Children make lots of messes and can be really hard on furniture,  so you want a bed that will last. Which is why quality not quantity is an important thing to keep in mind when buying your son or daughter a new bed. Consider American made furniture as it is often a higher quality than those shipped from overseas, and you know that they meet safety standards here.

Why buy American Made?

Did you know that every $3.33 someone spends on American made products 10,000 new jobs are created?
That equals healthier families, happier lives, and a better economy. Money that is spent on USA products is also recycled back into the American economy.

The United States also requires companies to follow stricter regulations. The majority of these regulations keep poisons out of the products you buy. This means your kids are kept safer. The Federal Trade Commission also makes sure that companies follow the strict guidelines and that only those that do can use the Made in the USA emblem.  

Our beds also have cute designs for a nautical touch on them such as crabs, palm trees, pelicans, flamingos and sail boats plus many more options!  They are custom made in South Carolina and you can choose the color and finish to personalize the furniture to your child's liking.  These beds add instant personality and charm to any bedroom whether by the shore or inland.

Coastal Kid's Rooms

Fun rooms for kids with great beachy and nautical décor and coastal colors!

                          
At House By The Shore, we love creating coastal kid’s rooms.  They’re so much fun to decorate and kids are always thrilled when the room reflects their personality and has been designed just for them.  We want to share some of our thought processes with you in hopes that it will help you create not only fun but functional spaces for your children to enjoy in your house by the shore.

COLOR:

Kids love color.  Go bold.  If you’re not brave enough to paint the walls with it, incorporate the colors into the furniture.   As you can see by this picture, this furniture line was featured in Coastal Living magazine’s Dec 2014/Jan2015 issue.  We carry this line not only for their great design and durability but also for the incredible selection of finish options they offer.  You can truly personalize the piece by choosing your child’s favorite color!

ADD THEIR PERSONALITY:
We believe any room should reflect the personality of the people who live there and this is particularly true with children.  Let their favorite things shine in the décor.  For instance if your child is fascinated with ocean creatures, use them in the room.  What little boy wouldn't love having a shark lurking in his room? 



STORAGE IS A MUST:
Along with kids comes lots of stuff!  Toys, books and games will quickly get out of control without proper storage.  Be sure to use pieces that will make the rooms functional.  Bookcases with baskets on the bottom shelves for toy storage always work well or consider a wall unit with open storage for books and décor on top and closed door storage on the bottom.

SLEEPOVERS HAPPEN – A LOT:  
We haven’t met a kid yet that doesn’t have sleepovers.  That means twin beds or bunk beds are a great idea.  If you have a small room, then consider a daybed with a trundle.  Children want to spend time with friends and when they live by the shore you can count on many friends wanting to visit.  Also in a vacation home, it is a great idea to consider two sets of bunk beds to maximize how many you can sleep.

INCORPORATE ART:

We’re firm believers that children should be exposed to artwork from a young age.  Everything doesn’t have to be childish and art should grow with the child.  For example this oil would look great in a nursery and grow right up with the child and look equally great in a teen bedroom.

PREVENT COLD FEET:    
Adding a colorful area rug to a kid’s room is a fantastic idea - even if they have carpet already.  Rugs give them a soft area to play on and if you’re placing a run on top of existing carpet, you’re protecting it from the spills that are bound to happen.  Choose rugs that are easy to clean and that have a pattern which makes stains harder to detect.

THAT COASTAL FEELING:             
You’re living by the shore! Incorporate coastal décor accents into the room.  Add a mixture of bought, found and DIY projects for a well-rounded look and feel. 

We hope these tips give you some great inspiration to furnish and decorate your coastal kid’s room.  If you’d like some more ideas check out our coastal bedrooms for boys and coastal girl’s bedrooms boards on Pinterest!
