I love coastal-inspired design. Even in the middle of a New England winter, seeing something that reminds me of the ocean brings home a little summer. Here are some ideas for your beach-loving family and friends.
Yes, we’ve all seen the beachy wreath. I love this one because of the uniqueness of the driftwood, so no two are alike. For a little more one-of-a-kind design, try these fun, brightly colored, picket fence fishes.

Tried and true, this wooden bowl from Kouboo is perfect for any decor, but the mosaic acacia wood gives it a bit of a coastal feel. And the whale water pitcher is a new take on the old gurgling fish!
