Picnic Baskets on Parade

A picnic is a great way to spend some time at a park, on the beach, or at a scenic overlook and the best way to bring all the picnic essentials is in a picnic basket. Picnic baskets today are more than just baskets that hold sandwiches and watermelon. Many include sets of dishes, napkins, glasses, and utensils while some deluxe models even hold wine or tea. You can even find picnic backpacks and beverage carriers perfect for when you want to enjoy a picnic off the beaten path.

Picnic baskets also make wonderful gifts. Great for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, wedding gifts, and even during the holidays, a picnic basket is a thoughtful, practical, and beautiful gift. Give it as a gift by itself, or pack one up and give them a picnic and the basket to make it a special day.

Check out some of my favorite picnic baskets at eBags.

 

The Eco-Friendly Picnic Basket
Picnic Plus Eco Natural 2 Person Picnic Basket Picnic Plus Eco Natural 2 Person Picnic Basket: Picnic Plus has a whole collection of eco-friendly picnic baskets for groups of 2-4. This particular basket is made from 100% natural and renewable resources. The lining is dye and chemical free natural cotton. The set includes 2 natural cotton napkins, 2 wine glasses made from recycled glass, 2 bamboo plates, 1 bamboo cutting board, and 2 sets of bamboo utensils.

 

The Romantic Picnic Basket
Picnic Time Heart Picnic Basket Picnic Time Heart Picnic Basket: With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, this heart-shaped picnic basket is one I definitely had to feature. It makes the perfect romantic gift. Made from white washed bamboo, this basket is set up for service for 2. It includes white lace napkins, plates, utensils, corkscrew, champagne flute glasses, cheese knife, cutting board, and plastic food container. Pack your favorite wine or champagne, cheese, and snacks and watch the sunrise or sunset.

 

The Picnic Backpack - great for Valentine’s Day
Picnic Plus Tremont Picnic Plus Tremont: The Picnic Plus Tremont is a picnic backpack that includes a waterproof picnic blanket. The set also includes plates, wine goblets, napkins, utensils, cheese board w/ knife, and salt and pepper shakers. I love this pack because it’s perfect for where I live - Colorado. You can pack the food in the insulated food compartment, hike up your favorite mountain or to a beautiful waterfall, and have a nice lunch in the great outdoors.

 

The Tea Picnic Basket - perfect for Mother’s Day
Picnic Plus T4Two Tea Set Picnic Plus T4Two Tea Set: Although technically this isn’t a picnic basket because it’s designed for tea service, you can still use this T4Two Tea Set on the go for breakfast or afternoon tea. The hand woven willow basket includes insulated food compartment, beverage flask, cream and sugar containers, napkins, tablecloth, bamboo serving tray, and hand painted tea cups and tea pot. Why not treat mom to afternoon tea in the park this Mother’s Day?

 

The Picnic Basket for 4
Picnic Time Windsor Picnic Time Windsor: This is the granddaddy of picnic baskets. The Picnic Time Windsor offers premium service for 4. I love it because it includes everything you could possibly need on a picnic (except for food, guests, and entertainment of course). It includes 4 plates, 4 utensils, 4 mugs, 4 wine glasses, bottle stopper, insulated cooler bag, insulated wine duffle, fleece blanket, 2 food containers, salt and pepper shakers, cutting board, cheese knife, corkscrew, 4 napkins, and a flask. It’s great for families and a groups of friends.
