Some of my
best memories of great days out include
picnics: large family occasions,
get-togethers with friends, an imprompu
al fresco meal with my daughter. Somehow picnics embrace the
spirit of adventure, romance and
fun all rolled into one – even if it is only in the
local park!
To celebrate this feeling
Kitchen Craft have produced a range of polka dot picnic bags – and a
rug (150 x 135cm) with a
waterproof backing that folds into a handy
carry case. Perfect for a
junior guest to carry!

The
22 litre Kitchen Craft Shopper/Coolbag has a
reflective silver lining for extra
insulation, enabling the bag to maintain its
hot or cold temperature. It is
shower-proof - you can never
predict whether it will rain – and it often does when we think it is
perfect picnic weather. It is easy to
clean, using a
damp cloth, especially good for with those unavoidable
spillages that coincide with
picnics!The bag is a lovely
deep turquoise, which is very pleasing to the
eye and has a large
white pocket on the front covered in
multi-coloured spots. This r
etro look I love and I would even use this
style of bag for shopping, as it would complete and
match any look.
The bag has
straps that fit over one
shoulder, or alternatively can be
shortened to be carried by hand. Expanding into a
rectangular shape, makies it easy to
stack picnic essentials inside, and when emptied it
folds flat so can be
easily stored away.
This picnic bag also comes in a
25 litre version with all the same
excellent attributes.
There is also a
33 litre colllapsible picnic
basket/cool bag (Anne's
favourite) with a lightweight
aluminium frame and handle.
