Headed to the park for a perfect summer picnic? Make sure you have one of these new items to take your outdoor dining experience to the next level.

 

A New Picnic Basket

Are wicker picnic baskets really practical in any way? Likely not. Use a BUILT NY welded tote bag or soft portable cooler, so you can take all your cool items with you in one easy-to-carry bag that can handle everything you need. Plus, the portable cooler comes with a built-in bottle opener.

 

Watermelon Slicester

Stop struggling with that melon! The Watermelon Slicester gives you a mess-free bowl of watermelon cubes in seconds. Just slice, pick up and eat. Despite the name, this kitchen gadget also works on cantaloupe and honeydew melons.

 

Rabbit Freezable Cocktail Maker

Make a frozen cocktail in your freezer, enough for four to six servings (which, depending on your habits, could be enough for just you, or you and a few friends), and then toss this cocktail carafe with its neoprene sleeve and tight lid into your new picnic basket, where it’ll stay insulated and cold. Once at the park, pop it open and pour everyone a round of frozen Rosé or margaritas.

 

Scuddles Picnic Blanket

Of course, you’ll need somewhere to sit. A Scuddle picnic blanket is heavy duty, yet stylish, made of polyester with a waterproof backing. The carrying straps store it neatly when folded, so you can carry it to your favorite picnic spot with ease.
