About Picnic Baskets

Taking your family or loved one on a picnic is a fun and inexpensive way to spend a warm afternoon. Picnic baskets come in a variety of styles and even make great gifts.

Traditional wicker picnic baskets are classic and timeless. Most wicker baskets are lined with fabric and come as a set with plates, cups, utensils, etc. Some are divided into different compartments with straps to hold everything in place, while others are not as structured with just a large main compartment for you to organize as you please.

Soft picnic bags are usually insulated and are a modern-version of the picnic basket. Picnic bags are available in several styles including shoulder bags and picnic backpacks. Picnic bags are an ideal choice if you plan to hike, bike ride, or skate to your picnic location because they are easier to carry than the classic basket style. Like traditional wicker picnic baskets, soft insulated picnic bags come in a variety of sizes and generally come as a set with plates, cups, utensils, etc. Most, however, are more organized than baskets featuring many smaller compartments, pockets, and straps to secure the bag’s contents.
