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....

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

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

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