Picnic On The Go
I live in Tucson where most Spring, Summer and Fall days are windy. Entertaining outdoors can be a pain. With everything blowing down or away. Like a cute place setting! NO MORE CHASING AFTER ROLLING NAPKINS AND PLATES! This Picnic On the Go is the answer!
Choose something fun to display your plates in. Like an old crate. I used an old suitcase.
This Picnic On The Go is perfect for a buffet too! Complete with a festive drink straw and toothpick. 😉
Picnic On The Go Supplies
paper plate
ribbon or jute string
