Whether it's a romantic interlude or a fun outing with the family, carry everything you need for your picnic in a basket specifically suited to hold all of your favorite foods and beverages as well as utensils and glassware.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

Step1
Determine your long-term need for the basket. If you foresee annual get-togethers with friends in a meadow or by the seashore, consider a basket that will accommodate your wine, cheese and crackers, and fresh fruit.
Step2
Look at bags or baskets that have room for numerous utensils, flatware and glasses, as well as separate compartments for snacks, fruit and cookies. The roominess will especially come in handy if you have a large family that picnics often.
Step3
Evaluate what you'll want to take with you. Many baskets come with a picnic blanket, napkins, utensils, unbreakable dishware and tablecloths. This arrangement allows you to toss your food and beverages in and go.
Step4
If you like to hike and then eat, choose a special backpack with the function of a picnic basket but the comfort and carrying ease of your hiking pack.
