What’s more fun than enjoying food and drink with good friends on a warm summer evening? Summertime in Omaha presents all kinds of opportunities to enjoy outdoor dining and entertainment – there’s Jazz on the Green, Shakespeare on the Green, outdoor concerts at Memorial Park and Midtown Crossing, fireworks displays, and many more. But, you’ll need a way to carry all the essentials – glasses, plates, drinks, and snacks – right? That’s why we’re so excited about our new collection of picnic baskets and totes – the latest addition to our collection of outdoor entertainment accessories.
Outdoor Dining on the Go
We’ve gathered a fun selection of sizes, shapes, and styles for our new picnic tote collection. One of our favorite pieces is the Adeline Vino Wine basket – a perfectly sized square wicker design with two attached circular baskets for carrying bottles. It comes complete with glasses, napkins, a cutting board, and a wine key too. The Dahlia Barrel basket is a little larger – perfect for an outdoor dinner for two – and its unique barrel shape is an interesting take on a traditional picnic basket.
Our most popular item this spring has been the Adventure Wine Tote. This handsome cloth messenger-style bag has an insulated space large enough for two bottles of wine – or one bottle and a stash of your favorite snacks. It comes with two shatterproof wine glasses, a wine key, a replacement cork, and a wooden cutting board that folds out into a handy little table too. And we’re looking forward to two more fun and versatile styles set to arrive this week – an easy-to-carry, backpack-style picnic basket and a fun cloth and leather 6-pack caddy. Any of these totes would make great gifts for weddings, graduations, and Father’s Day too.
Outdoor Dining Closer to Home
Of course, it’s not necessary to leave your own beautiful backyard to experience outdoor living, and we’ve got you covered for that too. Our collection of melamine dinnerware, trays, and serving pieces come in several nature-inspired patterns that look just like heavier stoneware but are lightweight and durable for taking outside. Our line of acrylic drinkware sparkles like glass but won’t break like it – allowing you to enjoy a care-free evening as you move about outside. And don’t forget the napkins. Our beautiful collection of table linens will put a stylish finishing touch on your outdoor gatherings – plus they’re environmentally-friendly and won’t take off on a gust of wind.
