Picnic Set

Picnic Set

My Mom and I came up with this fun idea as a wedding present for my cousin and her husband! 
They are taking it with them on their honeymoon and they will be able to make many more memories with it in years to come!

I sewed a double sided picnic table, napkins, and place  mats with silverware pockets.
My cousin's wedding colors were navy blue and yellow with Daisy's as the flower.
So here was the selected material:

The materials all ready to go!

Daisy print for one side of the table cloth.

The print for the other side of the table cloth.

Pretty ribbon for the place mats.

Pocket and napkin color

Pocket, binding, and place mat material.  
Daisy Button Decoration!
The place mats were done with the navy blue material and the ribbon and buttons. 
Inside the rolled up place mat, the silverware are kept clean and ready for use!

Place mat pieces ready to sew!

Pretty bow and button.

The table cloth, as before mentioned is double sided and has pockets to put the painted rocks in to keep it from blowing away.

Both sides!

Painted rocks as weights.
 To top it off the basket was decorated with a hand painted daisy on top and a place mat on the bottom for easy mess clean up.

Empty basket...

Ready for the place mat...

And here it is!    
We filled the basket with the handmade items as well as coffee mugs, VIA Coffee, Cheetos, cups, Martinelli's, wet wipes, coffee creamer, etc.

This gift was a LOT of fun to make and think up things to put in it! 
I hope it is a blessing to the happily married couple!! 
 Congrats Tracy and Anthony!
