There is something special about eating out of doors - maybe it's the novelty for us Brits (we don't often get the weather, after all), or the freedom from constraints, or just the sheer loveliness of it. But when it comes to outdoor dining, you can't beat a good picnic. From a humble sandwich on a park bench just across from the office, to the full works - blankets, baskets, ball games and a good book - it somehow adds another dimension to lunch... it becomes an event, rather than just a necessity.
If you want to make your next picnic just a little bit special, then I highly recommend all of these lovely handmade items that I have Found on Folksy...
First of all, park your behind on this fantastic blanket:
And grab some gorgeous napkins for
those sticky fingers:
those sticky fingers:
Your cutlery will be easily
transported in this gorgeous cutlery roll...
You may wish to hang bunting
from a nearby tree:
Having prepared your perfect spot, a nice cold drink
is in order - this jug cover will keep the bugs out!
If the sun gets too strong, you can
always sport a fabulous straw hat...
But let's hope you won't be needing
any of these!
Save your delicious apples from a bruising
with these ingenious wee jackets:
And if you fancy a proper cuppa then how
could you be without this...
could you be without this...
And of course no picnic is complete
without the perfect picnic companion!
