I absolutely love everything nautical. Sometimes it’s difficult to distinguish nautical from beach and coastal themes when it comes to home decor. I happen to have all three themes somehow nestled throughout my house – each room adorning elements of each. Finding decorative nautical home accents that are gentle on the wallet can be a challenge, because let’s be real here – I’m just not looking to spend $300 on a lamp.
It’s important not to mix and match in one living space. Nautical is defined more along the lines of rustic, earthy and dark with shipyard, vessel, marina, and sailor elements. So think of anchors, compasses, sailboats, fish, lighthouses, lanterns, ship wheels and marine life such whales, crabs, fish, octopus and seagulls.
And the other difficult part is finding these elements in home decor. I have done the research for you, and have compiled over 10 pieces of nautical decor for the home – from wall art and lighting to floor decor and everything in between.
