Double Duty Mason Jars
What better way to have a glass of iced tea, fresh lemonade, or add candlelight to your table? Mason jars add a fun twist to any drink and work perfectly both indoors and out.
Give your county picnic a step of class by using linen napkins instead of paper. They won't blow away and if you get any stains, just use a little bleach.

White Lantern
These white lanterns will add charm to your table or will look gorgeous hanging from trees in such an organic setting. They will also help provide a little light as dusk approaches.
Fun reusable plates will add zest to your summertime cookout! Get them personalized with your initials or pick up a pack in a timeless pattern so they won't get lost in the mix!
Keeping your refreshments cool when it's hot out is a must. Rather than pull out a musty cooler, grab an ice bucket that can sit atop your table and is within reach for everyone.
If you don't have time to pick them fresh, grab a few faux flowers from the craft store. This way you will have a great centerpiece no matter what kind of rush you're in...and no one will know the difference!
