Hi all,

Excited to bring you a brand new post today and we’re talking picnics - easily one of my favorite summer or spring activities. I just love preparing some goodies, a good blanket, and setting off to either the beach or the park, to sit, enjoy some outdoors time and relax in good company. Today, we’re talking some of my favorite items that you need for your perfect summer picnic, so let’s jump right in!

Summer Picnic Must-Haves

So first things first: we need a blanket to set down, right? The one pictured is this one from HSN - it’s double-sided and has tassels. It’s quite big, comfy and can be used as a blanket on the ground, or the one you use to cover yourself if the evening gets a bit chilly where you are. I’m linking a couple of similar ones as well.

We have to transport the goodies in something too, right? So a good picnic basket not only is a must, but makes for a perfect picture prop. Other must-haves include a good cordless speaker, a net to keep bugs away from the food and some containers.

When it comes to enjoying and displaying what you brought, I found this charcuterie and cheese board at HSN also that I love - it has a hidden compartment for utensils and is the perfect size. I also brought a little wine koozie to keep my beverage of choice as chilled as possible for the picnic.

For the outfit, I’m loving a good pink dress for Summer, and you can find the one I’m wearing HERE, or see some of the similars from Amazon I linked here, here and here!
