One of the best parts of summer is all the outdoor social activities- bbqs, pool parties and weekends at friend's beach houses or camps (that's what we call lake houses in NY). When attending one of these events, it's important to always properly thank the hosts- whether it's by bringing food, a small gift or writing a follow up thank you note. For the perfect nautical party gift, turn to MW Coastal Goods.

MW Coastal Goods offers a variety of nautical barware and accessories, including wine/bottle openers, coasters, glassware and more. For a summer party host/ess gift, check out the graphic buoy bottle openers, like the All Hands On Deck ($40). Its a simple, fun gift that will get lots of use at any good party. Plus, it comes in numerous styles and colors, so you can match it with the host's personality/decor.

Side note: I created Lincoln Knots to share my love of all things simple, nautical and preppy. While I have so far written mostly about men's clothing (and that will remain the focus), I am continuing to broaden my scope. Hope you enjoy.
