Swan Planter

The Williamsburg Collection
Whether you are a seasoned landscaper, or simply enjoy outdoor home improvement as a novice, the Williamsburg Collection is a collection both types of outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy. If elegance, class, and simplicity are all things you would like to incorporate into your outdoor haven, consider investing in Campania International's latest collection. The Williamsburg Collection offers a broad spectrum of products all designed to integrate an eighteenth century theme with both English and American influence.
This collection is ideal for all backyards, landscapes, and gardens. It incorporates polished, refined pieces with the perfect amount of embellishment and decoration. The collection will fit nicely with heavily ornamented areas that are missing that one special piece, as well as smaller, more uninhabited landscapes that need just one amazing garden furnishing to bring the area to life.
Envision boxwood hedges, elegant terraces, and classical urns. This unique, distinctive style inspired by American gardens from the eighteenth century is influenced by particular architectural patterns and garden design books fashionable in England at the time. Volumes of these design books can even be found in Colonial Williamsburg's rare books collection.
The urns, stands, basins, columns, and other various garden accents displayed in these English design books were a huge influence on American landscapers; however these gardeners generally preferred simpler, less adorned versions of these outdoor water features. Campania International's new Williamsburg garden arrangements pay homage to these American gardeners by offering pieces that celebrate form over ornamentation and display a decidedly refined, aesthetically pleasing design which is still quite modern.
There are a couple of exceptions in this collection however, that are more appropriately grouped with the intricate English design of the eighteenth century. Campania International could not resist including their duplication of the spectacularly ornate urns that are a central focal point of the Governor's Palace Grounds: Colonial Williamsburg's most renowned and elaborate garden.
The garden is known for its cool green areas, neat flower gardens, fenced pastures, carefully trimmed boxwoods, and large shade trees. Typical types of flowers found in the gardens include the dogwood, redbud, peony, German and Siberian iris, and the Oriental poppy. Other colonial sites that can be found in historical Williamsburg include the Bruton Parish Churchyard, the Carpenter's Yard, the Duke of Gloucester Street, Great Hopes Plantation, Market Square, Palace Green, and the Play Booth Theater, each of which have its own special influence on the Williamsburg Collection.
The beautifully meticulous urn replicas are the perfect complement to the simpler, more traditional American pieces that make up the most of the Williamsburg Collection. The various urns the collection offers include the Classical Frieze Urn, the Cherub Urn, the Swan Urn, the Neoclassic Urn, and the Orangery Urn, just to name a few. There are also countless other beautiful garden additions offered by this charming collection, not limited to pedestals, stepping stones, birdbaths, and planters.
In combination, the two extremes of the same era come together to offer an amazing selection of historically influenced garden furnishings and outdoor water features. Any of these pieces are sure to turn any garden or outdoor oasis into an environment of elegance, sophistication, and beauty.

Has your significant other ever brought you a gift of items he found in a box in the Home Depot parking lot?
My husband came home with a box from the Home Depot parking lot, filled with the following:
1. a 24k gold plated swan planter
2. colorful fruit dessert plate and matching serving plate
3. simple white plate with floral design
4. two small wood and metal baskets for unknown purpose
He intends to sell the items at our future garage sale.
It's like a Golden Girl came through a time portal and left a 1980s time capsule.
Please let me know if you have ever found something.....unusual.
Thank you to all who answer. If you lost any of the above items, please let me know.
You are so lucky! That was a very thoughtful offering….and it wasn't even Valentine's Day.
I think those items would fetch a handsome sum at a garage sale. Perhaps you could paint "Thank you for being my friend" on the dishware to increase the perceived value. You could fill the two small baskets with packets of Fancy Ketchup and sell them as gift baskets. I would sell the gold plated swan planter to Cash4Gold, and use that money to fund your dream vacation.
I have never hit the Home Depot parking lot jackpot like this, but one time I found a plastic horse head while taking a walk in my neighborhood. I use it when I need to remind people that it would be a mistake to wrong me.
