Memorial Day is the unofficial start of Summer! And you know what that means…….beach trips, backyard BBQs, weekends at the lake…..

But one of my favorite summertime activities is as traditional as apple pie. I love a picnic!

Here are a few things on my shopping list to set the mood for an old-fashioned, nostalgic, picnic date. Click the links to shop!

Every picnic needs to start with the most basic of foundations, a picnic blanket. This one comes in three cozy colors and, for a small additional fee, you can even have it personalized. It’s just too perfect!

What’s a picnic without food? I’m not sure…but it doesn’t count as a picnic. After you have planned some yummy treats, you are going to need a way to carry them. This picnic basket from Pottery Barn is perfect for a date for two.

We may be enjoying time in the sun, but we have to protect our skin ladies. This boater hat is currently on sale and gives a touch of whimsy. If hats aren’t your thing, try this picture-perfect picnic umbrella!

The whole point of this little date is to spend quality time with your special someone. Pick up an outdoor game to help pass the time. This bocce ball set comes with a nice bag to transport it around in and is really good quality. It is built to last!

Are you a sucker for a little nostalgic romance? Please tell me I’m not the only one!

I’ll let you know how my picnic turns out….after I convince my husband he will also enjoy it. LOL XOXO – Scarlett
