Ahh… a Sunday picnic, what could be better?! When we think of the perfect Sunday, we think of the true picnic essentials – friends gathered on large picnic blankets, lots of cosy outdoor cushions and far too much food. With spring in the air and picnics in the calendar, now’s the time to be thinking about how to put together the perfect picnic. The great thing about picnics is you can make them as understated or over-the-top as you want.
To start your planning, it’s important to consider what to bring to your picnic! We believe the perfect picnic setup starts with the perfect picnic blanket. Keeping you comfortable wherever you set up, a picnic mat sets the tone for your picnic styling and comfort. If you’re like us, you’re bringing all the matching bits and bobs from outdoor cushions to beach chairs with you to make it an affair to remember. What’s a picnic, however, without a picnic basket and outdoor dinnerware? With a stunning outdoor range, we’ve got you covered so the final thing you have to think of is what food you’ll bring on your picnic!
If you’re lucky enough to be enjoying your picnic at the beach, don’t forget your beach towel, and for the little ones – a kids hooded beach towel (trust me, you’ll want one of these – they’re adorable!). Australia is known for a lot of wonderful things and number one is our beautiful warm weather so you’ll want to be sure you’ve packed a cooler bag full of delicious cheeses, dips and drinks. Stay safe in the sun with a stylish sun shade like a trending beach umbrella or the must-have beach accessory of the moment, a beach cabana.
Don’t want to miss a thing for your perfect picnic setup? We’ve curated a checklist from the picnic mat to lay on, to the beach umbrella for shade from the sun, to ensure you won’t leave a thing behind!
The best part of all of this – picnic season starts now! Be sure to share your picnic setups with us on Instagram with #sundaysbypillowtalk and check out our stunning Sundays by Pillow Talk beach and outdoor range today!
