Summer scene setting
Ah, summer—the season of sunshine, SPF overload, and, of course, picnic lunches that could rival a Michelin-starred feast (well, sort of). Setting the perfect picnic table isn’t just a task; it’s an art form. Here’s how to slay it, with a generous sprinkle of humour.
First, let’s talk tablecloths. Sure, you could go for a basic one, but why not channel your inner influencer? Pick something bold, bright, and ideally Instagram-worthy. Bonus points if it hides ketchup stains better than a detective on a crime scene.
Next, the plates. Do we trust flimsy paper plates? Absolutely not. Go for reusable melamine ones—eco-friendly and sturdy enough to survive even the most aggressive burger-to-mouth collisions. For napkins, skip the standard white; opt for something colorful and chic. Extra flair? Cloth napkins that say, “I’m fancy, but I eat chips with my hands.”
Now, onto cutlery and glasses. Disposable cutlery is fine, but bamboo alternatives make you look like you care about the planet (because you do, right?). For glasses, plastic tumblers are a must—fancy enough to feel elegant but safe for clumsy hands.
Finally, add some pizzazz: a vase with fresh wildflowers, a small Bluetooth speaker for soft background tunes, and maybe a citronella candle to ward off uninvited buzzing guests.
Et voilà! A table setting that screams “summer vibes” louder than a seagull eyeing your fries. Go forth, dine outdoors, and let your table be as fabulous as your playlist.
Have fun and enjoy!
