Summery Nautical Pillows for Indoors & Outdoors

Image
 Nautical and coastal details are a favorite of many and form part of both casual and more formal decor schemes. The predominant colors are white, blues and yellows, evoking the colors of the sky, seawater, foamy waves, and the sand. The reds and pinks found in marine life, sunsets on the horizon or navigation flags are also common. These pillows you're about to see are on the casual side of decor, for a relaxed feel. I've listed the exterior pillow versions, but once you click you will have the option to take a look at indoor versions of them all.  Enjoy!

We can choose to put them in a balcony, a patio, by the poolside, or in a cozy private garden.  Add happy color umbrellas or sun shades to complete the luxury resort feel.  All you need now is to kick back, enjoy your c

 Cornhole is a classic lawn game in which players toss bean bags at a board with a hole. A bag through the hole scores 3 points; a bag on the board, scores 1 point. The winner is the first to get 21 points. Kids and adults both play cornhole informally in parties like weddings, family reunions, tailgates, holiday BBQ parties, ...or any day, in backyards or any open space mainly during the warm seasons of the year. It can be played indoors, but it's typically an outdoor lawn game.  The game has become a sport, even with world championships/. Sets for competition (or self-challenge!) have to follow rules regarding size of the board, position and size of the hole, and size and weight of the bean bags. For example, the "regulation" board must measure 2 ft x 3 ft and the "bean" bag must actually must be filled with corn kernels and be square and weight 1 lb and measure 6 inches x 6 inches. You can build one yourself, or buy a regulation or informal board set from var
