Selecting the perfect boho picnic blanket can transform your outdoor gatherings into memorable, stylish experiences. With a myriad of options available, it's essential to consider various factors to ensure you find the best blanket for your needs. Here’s a guide to help you choose the ideal boho picnic blanket for your next outing, featuring our signature boho floral designs.
Material Matters
The material of your picnic blanket plays a crucial role in comfort and durability. Unlike other brands, we only use 100% cotton as it is far more durable, softer and long-lasting than polyester or recycled polyester / cotton blends. Our collection includes:
- 100% Woven Cotton for our Woven Picnic Blankets: This material provides a soft, yet durable feel against your skin, perfect for lounging. The yarn is woven tightly to create the effect of the colours and the design which adds texture and a unique look to your picnic blanket.
- 100% Cotton Canvas with a waterproof underside for our Canvas Picnic Blankets: This type of material ensures that you stay dry even on damp grass. The printed design on the canvas offers a vibrant backdrop to every occasion.
Size and Portability
Both of our picnic rugs are generous in size and designed to comfortably fit four adults:
- Canvas Rug: Measures approx 150 x 200 cm.
- Woven Rug: Measures approx 160 x 200 cm.
Each picnic rug is designed to be easily portable - you can roll it up and it will fit into one of our tote bags, taking up only half the space. Or you can use one of our carry straps, ideal for taking on your outdoor adventures. They weigh approx 1.6-1.8kg.
Design & Aesthetic
- Woven Picnic Blanket: Home of the original woven floral picnic blankets, we created our collection to challenge the (lack of) design aesthetic that was in market at the time. We wanted to challenge the construct of a woven rug with our hand-drawn signature boho floral motifs and it completely changed the style of this product available, making them very unique.
- Canvas Picnic Blanket: We can get very creative with our canvas picnic rug designs as they are printed directly onto the cotton canvas material. All of our artwork for this type of blanket is hand-painted with a lot of intricate detail in the design that embody the boho spirit.
Both rugs feature tassels, adding a touch of boho elegance and playfulness to your setup.
Functionality & Features
Our picnic blankets come with practical features that enhance their usability:
- Waterproof Backing (Canvas Rug): Protects against damp ground and ensures a dry seating area.
- Machine Washable (Woven Rug): The woven rug can be machine washed on a cold delicate cycle, making it easy to clean and maintain.
Durability & Quality
We believe that a sustainable product is one that uses natural fibres and is made well so that it lasts longer. Unlike other picnic blankets, all of our designs are quality checked upon completion and can only pass QC if they meet our high set of standards.
- Stitching and Construction: Both rugs are crafted with reinforced edges and strong stitching.
- Fabric Quality: Made from premium 100% cotton and 100% cotton canvas, our rugs are designed to withstand wear and tear better than cheaper alternatives that use recycled polyester / cotton blends.
Eco-Friendliness
When searching for a picnic blanket, make sure to choose environmentally friendly options that align with ethical & sustainable practices. Our blankets are made from 100% cotton and are not only a more sustainable choice compared to those that are made with synthetic materials, but also the quality of the construction of our picnic blankets means that they will last for years to come - reducing the need to replace them.
Versatility
Our versatile picnic blankets can be used in various settings beyond picnics:
- Woven Rug: Can be used as a stylish blanket or decorative throw in your home, adding warmth and texture to any space. You can also take it for sunset trips, play dates, weekends away, beach days, camping and more.
- Canvas Rug: Can also be used for all of the outdoor activities mentioned above, and we commonly have customers use them as a couch cover to brighten up their living room and protect their sofa.
