Coastal Beach Garden Stepping Stones Mosaic Stepping Stones
You can make your very own coastal or beach theme stepping stones or shop handmade stepping stones. If you want to make your own stepping stone(s) the cool part is that you don't need a Fancy Mold to do so.  You can use a non-stick cake pan or plastic planter trays, for example. Latter was used to create the above beachy stepping stones. For the tutorial, go to Real Housemoms.

Place your beach garden stepping stones anywhere in your yard or, of course, lay them out as a walkway.
