Make use of all that garden space by creating your own DIY picnic space at home!
How lovely it would be to have a picnic by the sea, or even in a beautiful jardin outside the country? But while we dream of idyllic landscapes and long stretches of field, we've also come to realise that perhaps a picnic set on our very own gardens could be just as fun—if not more. Surely, there's the convenience of location, and the ability to take all the time in the world to enjoy a leisurely nap in our own backyards. Below are a few tips on how to have the best time, even while at home!
1. Get the right food (and drink!)
It's pertinent to have the right food and drink for a picnic, even if it is just a casual set-up at home. Treat yourself to lovely finger foods—like a charcuterie board or a caviar cake—and a nice bottle of wine (or cocktail kit) to really get you in the mood. Those who'd prefer a heavier meal can also opt for the many take-out boxes or baked goods from home bakers that are awash online. As long as you're looking forward to the food, your picnic is already a sure success
