Look for a design that reflects your personality – be it vintage, floral, or classic plaid. We offer a variety of delightful picnic blankets to suit your style, such as classic red and white chequered, multi-coloured, and reversible blankets. For an even wider selection of charming picnic blankets and essentials, visit our webshop. There, you'll find a variety of designs, colours, and patterns to suit any theme or preference. Whether you're a fan of vibrant hues or more subtle, classic styles, we have the perfect picnic blanket for you. Our bestsellers #2 Easy picnic food for a fun and flavorful feast Keep it simple with easy-to-eat finger foods, like veggie sticks with dip, cheese and crackers, and a variety of sandwiches with interesting fillings (think: pesto, goat cheese, or even peanut butter and jelly). Use cookie cutters to make fun shapes or prepare a variety of wraps for a twist on the classic sandwich. Salads and dips are perfect for adding colour and freshness to your picnic spread. Think outside the box with unique combinations like watermelon and feta, or a hearty quinoa and roasted veggie salad. For dips, try something new like beetroot hummus or a tangy tzatziki. For desserts, choose portable and mess-free options like cookies, hand pies, or fruit skewers drizzled with chocolate. Keep drinks cool and refreshing with ice-cold fruit-infused water, our sparkling lemonade, or a batch of our fruity iced tea. #3 Hilarious outdoor games to keep everyone entertained Put a spin on traditional games like potato sack races by turning them into a relay race or adding obstacles. Or, transform the classic game of tag into "freeze tag" or "musical tag" to keep everyone on their toes. Innovative games like our Catch Ball Game or Trampoline ball game (a fast-paced, bouncing-ball game) are sure to entertain and challenge your picnic guests. You can also invent your own games using everyday items like pool noodles, hula hoops, or even a simple deck of cards. Are you more into petanque, badminton, or a water fight? We got you covered. Check out all our great Outdoor toys! #4 Creative picnic themes for a unique experience If you're a fan of the sweet, summery fruit, why not host a strawberry-themed picnic? Celebrate the vibrant red colour and heart shape of strawberries with matching decorations, food, and games. With our wide product range at your disposal, your picnic is sure to be a unique, cheerful, and unforgettable event. Get ready for a berry good time! From fruity fun, let's dive into movie magic. Picnic in a world of cinema! Transport your guests to the world of cinema with a movie-themed picnic. You could recreate scenes from classic films like "Roman Holiday" or "The Sound of Music," or host a "Harry Potter" picnic with themed food and decorations. After the movie escapade, let's time-travel. Decades or cultures, you decide! Embrace nostalgia by choosing a specific decade or cultural theme for your picnic. From a 1960s hippie picnic with tie-dye and flower power to a Mexican fiesta with vibrant colours and mariachi music, the options are endless. From the past, let's return to nature. Beach or forest, your picnic paradise awaits! Connect with the great outdoors by organising a nature-inspired picnic. Host a beach-themed picnic with seashell decorations and beach games or plan a woodland fairy picnic in a forest clearing with toadstool seating and whimsical flower arrangements. #5 DIY picnic activities to set the mood Create a masterpiece! Bring your artistic flair to the picnic scene with our Painting kit. Choose from a wide range of canvas sizes – from small accents to big statement pieces – and use the kit to create custom artwork that reflects your picnic's theme or showcases your personality. You can even turn this into a fun pre-picnic activity, inviting friends and family to contribute their own creative designs to the canvas, making it a collaborative masterpiece. Want to be colourful? Add a pop of colour to your picnic with our Tie-dye kit. Use the kit to create vibrant, eye-catching scrunchies and scarves that can double as table runners or napkins. Unleash your creativity and make unique patterns that will brighten up your picnic setting.

Create personalised charms, bracelets, or necklaces that you can use as napkin holders, wine glass identifiers, or even as keepsakes for your guests. The possibilities are endless when you combine your creativity with these versatile, and your guests will be delighted by the attention to detail. #6 Capturing the heartwarming memories Preserve your picnic memories with a DIY photo booth. Hang a colourful backdrop and provide a basket of fun props like oversized glasses, funny hats, and chalkboard signs - we've got every decoration and outfit you could possibly imagine for your picnic! Encourage guests to snap silly and sweet photos to remember the day. Compile your photos, mementoes, and stories from the day into a picnic scrapbook or memory box. Include handwritten notes, pressed flowers, or ticket stubs to add a personal touch. This keepsake will be a treasure trove of happy memories that you can revisit and share with others. #7 Finding the prime location for your picnic paradise A perfect picnic is not only about food, games, and decorations – it's also about finding that prime location to lay down your blanket and enjoy the great outdoors. For a memorable picnic experience, search for a location with scenic beauty and a sense of tranquillity. A park with a lovely pond or a hilltop spot with panoramic views can make your picnic feel extra special.
