Nautical Theme

As you get close to the Lake or Beach you see that many homes and/businesses use a nautical theme to decorate their spaces or yards. This is an easy theme as boats, ropes, statues of seamen are pretty accesible on the market.
You can use this same idea in your backyard on a smaller scale. Place sand near the edge of your pond and incorporate the above mentioned items and add some sea shells to make it more realistic
