You’ll find much of this craftsmanship at the galleries, boutiques and shops that feature home decor in these towns. These furnishings, like driftwood carvings, sea glass wind chimes, photographs and oil paintings of seascapes, draw influence from their surrounding environments. They give you a whimsical and masterfully created approach to bringing Outer Banks elements into your own home’s decor and furniture.
