10 Great Picnic Tips & Hacks

****UPDATED 8/5/23/****


Picnic season is a favorite of our family. Whether it be a quick lunch in the park or a family gathering, it's always fun. You can have a picnic just about anywhere, at the beach, the park, in the back of your car with the trunk open, or in your very own backyard. We all can use some help on how to have a picnic go smoothly. Follow these helpful tips and enjoy the great outdoors!

1. Grab 'n Go Push the bottom of a large chip bag upwards inside itself to turn it instantly into the perfect snack bowl.




2. Easy Sippin’ - Worry no more about losing your straw to the wind or into your drink. Instead, stick your straw securely through the cap of your soda or drink can.




3. Keep Your Blanket Dry - Stick a shower curtain under your picnic blanket to ensure that no one has a damp seat from the grass!




4. Make Your Own Speakers - Place your phone into a glass to stream music. The cup will amplify the music like a speaker!




5. Cupcake Liners Aren’t Just for Cupcakes - Place a cupcake liner over your glass to keep the bugs at bay!

6. Prevent Apples from Turning Brown - If you’re a fan of sliced apples and looking to prep them ahead of time, keep them from turning brown by holding the slices together with a hair tie or rubber band.



7. Keep Your Salads Fresh - Store your salad in a glass canning jar, keeping the dressing at the bottom to prevent your salad from getting soggy. Stir when it’s time to enjoy!

8. Easy Salt & Pepper Shakers - Don't throw those mint containers away. Store salt and pepper in empty mint containers for easy pouring.





9. Prevent Sticky Hands - another use for those cupcake wrappersPlace a cupcake liner at the base of your popsicle to prevent dripping, keeping your hands free of a sticky mess!




10. Frozen Water Bottles - Freeze water bottles ahead of time, using them as the “ice packs” for your picnic lunch!
