Thursday, a picnic, and Etsy


Tulips are up. We have already had the first mosquito bites, skinned knees, and Popsicles of the season. This "Thursday and Etsy" post finds me feeling Spring-y and sunny, that can only mean one thing..... a picnic!
First (well, second I guess, after checking the weather) I would make sure we had all the important supplies.

The essential picnic basket....


And a handy back up tote for anything that may not fit inside....


A perfect blanket to spread out in a perfect spot....


Once settled in, the basket can be unpacked. Some utensils and napkins-packed up efficiently and prettily....


The plates that are all yours and make you smile every time you see them....


The reusable, and rather adorable, bags and bags of delicious treats....



Some things to keep those pests away....



It never hurts to have some entertainment for the kiddos....



Can't forget the protection from the sun....


And hopefully this is the only bee around....


Finally, even the littlest member of the party can get in on the festivities.....with styling ant footwear.

  3. Hi there, love this post! We don't have many picnics here in SO.AZ. as temps go from cool to HOT very quickly. But I do use my bag you posted for wine & grocery shopping all the time! It's my favorite accessory so, THANK YOU for using it! :)

  5. All of it is so colorful and happy. The snack bags are a great idea and the tote bag with room for wine bottles would make a great gift for mother's day - I might even take her on a picnic too! Thanks for the ideas.
