Picnic Baskets, Picnic Blankets, & Picnic Tableware Made in the USA
Hold on, let me count. Six. I have 6 picnic baskets made in the USA. My goodness. My favorite is an antique picnic basket that I inherited from my grandparents. I can just picture them in the 1940s having a romantic picnic together and it makes me smile remembering them. Sigh.
All of my picnic baskets are vintage and similar to the heirloom quality wicker picnic baskets listed below. I use them to store winter gloves and hats, garden supplies, yarn & knitting needles, and all kinds of other things.
If you already have a great picnic basket but need replacement picnic dishes, or need to fill your new picnic basket, we listed some great picnic tableware options too.
Enjoy your picnic!
