- Create a backyard picnic with Crate & Barrel’s classic wooden picnic basket; plates, wine glasses, napkins, and more, included.
- Make day-drinking classy with True Brand’s gold-plated steel tumbler cup.
- From milkshakes to margaritas, you will need the SMEG retro blender from Crate & Barrel.
- I love my Target Opalhouse fruit print serving platter; it is a beautiful print and a generous 18″.
- Step up your outdoor game night with Kikkerland’s pixel playing cards. The pixels are separated by a transparent grid and moving the cards creates optical effects.
- Sadly, one of my favorite companies, Pier 1, is going from brick and mortar to online-only. I’m going to miss wandering around my local store. If you are lucky, pick up the Medallion Ombre Glass Hanging Tealight Lantern. The colorful bulbs add a whimsical style and ambiance to any outdoor space.
- Rockin’ tunes are a must for outdoor entertaining. Sunnylife’s Beach Sounds speaker radio on Amara is compatible with any smartphone or tablet. Plus, water-resistant to the odd spot of rain or outdoor dining.
- Head to Macy’s for the Martha Stewart Collection’s Americana pitcher in outdoor-friendly acrylic. When the party’s over, all four glasses stack inside the pitcher for space-saving storage.
- With a variety of fun colors to choose from, check out World Market’s stackable Naxos outdoor dining chairs. They make stylish outdoor entertaining effortless. Secondly, priced as a set of 2, they bring a splash of color to any setting.
- Patio Essentials’ dotted glass citronella candles step up your bug protection game. Line them up on an outdoor table and enjoy the sophisticated look. You can’t get from a metal bucket.
- This giant monstera towel from ban.do is huge at 65″ across. So, it easily doubles as a picnic blanket with the above-said basket.
- Toss a few throw pillows from Wayfair to instantly update your outdoor seating.
- Head to Nordstrom’s for this ingenious, fully collapsible cooler with a padded lid. It can hold to 350 lbs. when used as a seat or ottoman. In addition, it’s a rolling trolley with a fold-down front panel door that lets you get at the goodies without needing to stand up.
- Another cooler option, I have this retro number from World Market in red. It features a locking lid, a sturdy handle, and a convenient built-in bottle opener and all the retro feels.
- These are one of my favorite napkins from Geese & Ganders. Above all, the only acceptable ants to join your outdoor festivities.
