I don’t think there is a nautical themed gift guide @folksycontent1, but I bet that would be a popular one.

Even if this doesn’t make it to an ‘official’ gift guide, I think its worth us all tagging some appropriate gifts and treats here!

Here’s some from me to start off (I have loads - I love the seaside so I’ll limit it to three at a time!!)

What items do you have??

> **[Custom sailing boat picture - personalised with your chosen name or word](https://folksy.com/items/6669806-Sailing-boat-picture-personalised-)**

I don’t have anything with boats or fishes but I do have a necklace with a nautical colour scheme…

> **[Royal Blue Quarzite, turquoise, white howlite silver necklace](https://folksy.com/items/4379331-Royal-Blue-Quarzite-turquoise-white-howlite-silver-necklace)**

> Royal blue quartzite beads are mixed with turquoise and grey veined white howlite on silver wire with a silver trigger clasp to produce a rather nautical looking necklace. Approx 17 in. Comes wrapped in tissue paper in an organza bag ready for gift...

A nautical gift guide is a great idea!  
I have these in my shop…

Not sure if this would be classed as nautical but it’s seaside themed 🙂

I must admit @DeesDesigns I think the nautical theme could happily include Beach Huts - I know nautical is strictly ships and anything to do with their navigation blah blah blah but anything seaside could go. This is just a bit of fun after all! If this thread did turn into a front page gift guide, it could have a wider encompassing name. 😄 🙂 🙂

I agree, a nautical gift guide would be perfect with Summer on our doorstep:

My little brooch would fit in perfectly!!
