Adding a hand-made fish soap dish to your bathroom can also be a lovely touch," says Strathman.
“I recommend placing these oceanic items near water-themed areas in your home, like kitchens and bathrooms.”
However, be cautious not to overdo it.
Incorporate Color
Not everything needs to be typical seaside shades of blue.
Look for items from local artists instead of mass-produced fish decor.
And, finally, don’t hide away your fishy finds come fall.
