flying-monkey-nut-cracker

Now you can control your very own Flying Monkey with no golden cap needed, although his only function will be to crack open some nuts. Luckily, you happen to have captured him in the midst of his kidnapping of Toto so you get a flying monkey that looks like he is on his way to a picnic. Not quite the same as the fearsome creature from the movie.

not-paper-plates

These faux paper plates will give you the same old fashioned look of a paper plate that you have grown up with, but these also give you the strength and re-usability of melamine. They are dishwasher safe but not microwave safe, so you had best keep these for your outdoor eating needs and not try to use them as everyday plates. The last thing you need is to melt your chicken nuggets into a ball of plastic in the microwave. Cups are available as well, sold in sets of 4.

reclaimed-license-plate-map

Take a tour of the U.S. with this reclaimed license plate map, courtesy of our penology system and some guy who decided to shape them like states, mount them on a cedar picnic table top thingy, and charge $3,900 for the result. Why such a high price? Because the product page includes two words that are the kiss of death to your wallet: “handmade” and “art”.  And to cap it all off,  it was also featured on “Extreme Makeover: The Home Edition”. Any kind of product offering a triple threat like that certainly won’t be cheap.

recycled-snowboard-picnic-table

Finally you can put your fears of a picnic-time avalanche to rest with this recycled snowboard picnic table. They can be made from boards of your choice (provided they are available), and at 30″ X 60″, it should comfortably seat up to six people. So now if winter rears it ugly head and sends a wave of snow your way, your potato salad may be history but you can tear the table apart and ride to safety. All but that sixth person… that guy’s screwed.

hamburger-hot-dog-table-weights

As long as you are outdoors cooking up hamburgers and hot dogs, using those same food groups to make it an enjoyable experience is a great idea. These weighted hamburgers and hot dogs will keep your table cloth from blowing away and taking all your condiments and side dishes with it. They will also make your mouth water, these very well may be better looking than anything that comes off your grill.

picnic-ants

Ants are going to invade your picnic so you may as well give them a job. These resin and metal figures are dressed for dining but will spend their time holding down objects that might otherwise blow away. They are also a quick test for how squeamish your date really is.

food-tent.jpg

Summertime means picnics and barbecues . Unfortunately, it also means an abundance of creepy, crawling bugs. Protect your picnic from these flying freeloaders with this full-table food tent. Plus, when not in use, it folds away for easy storage.

Product Page ($5.98)

You are bound to attract ants when eating outdoors, so you may as well bring your own. The two ants pictured are salt and pepper shakers. While it may be a little tough to tell the two apart, maybe these two behemoths can act as a deterrent for all those smaller ants that want to invade your picnic. I am sure that ants can use their higher brain functions to figure out that the bigger ants won’t be happy about sharing their meal.

Butter Boy and Butter Girl

For those of us in the northern hemisphere, summer is fast approaching – and that means its time to prepare for barbecues and picnics. Naturally, many of these events will include corn on the menu, so the question on everyone’s lips is “how can technology help me to lube up that corn more thoroughly?” The answer, my friends, is Butter Boy and Butter Girl.

All you need to do is insert a half stick of butter into your Butter Boy or Girl and press down the plunger to evenly distribute the butter onto your corn. Plus, Butter Boy and Butter Girl are as attractive as they are functional.
