From monkey knots to vintage suitcases, there are tons of details for all types of weddings. Your wedding shouldn't be a Pinterest explosion, but sometimes you need that perfect tea kettle to finish off your garden wedding centerpiece or rustic fishing nets to reserve the front two rows at the ceremony.
And it doesn't stop there. Just in case you don't find something in this short roundup, be sure to check out Etsy's Shop Local search option. Start with general key search terms (i.e., nautical decor) first and then get more specific as you go (i.e., white buoys)-- it'll help you see what's available before biting too many nails. ;)
