If you've got a beach house -- or you know someone who does -- what's more perfect than some flip-flop stepping stones, new this year from Campania Inter- national. They'd also be just the right thing for a 20-or- 30- something you know who just can't live without flip-flops. The stepping stones are available in 13 different patinas, including natural cast stone shown here.
The new Garden Terrace Collection is comprised of 20 tiny planters that are perfect for an outdoor tabletop, gathered atop a wall, or clustered on three or four steps. Most of them are 6 x 10 inches, or thereabouts, but they're charming filled with small plants or fruit, or even cut flowers.
Campania also has a new line of lite urns made from clay and other naturally found materials (whatever that means). However, they weigh only about three pounds, and can be used either inside the home or outside in the garden.
Another novelty is a series of new glazed garden seats in a contemporary style, like the blue one shown at the right. Glazed garden spheres come in bright orange, lime green, burgundy, and other great colors to brighten up a dark corner almost anywhere.
Campania, in fact, now has quite an extensive line of modern planters that will get you far away from the cherubs, the lion faces, the gargoyles, and the fruity friezes that encircle so many containers.
