Summer Picnics with Clic: Everything You Need for the Perfect Alfresco Afternoon

Whether it’s a first date in the park, a long walk to a hidden beach cove, or a quiet afternoon lounging under the sun with someone you’ve loved for years, summer was made for picnics. At Clic, we believe a great picnic should feel as relaxed as it is beautiful easy to carry, effortless to style, and filled with the little details that turn a simple moment outdoors into something special.
 
Here’s our guide to planning the perfect picnic with everything you need.

SIMPLE PICNIC INSPIRATION
 

Clic's Favorite Serveware for Picnics

 

Step One: Start with TRP Charvets' Classic Textiles for Picnic Table Cloth

We love TRP Charvet's French linen napkins and tablecloths. Woven in Armentières, France a town known for its textile traditions dating back to the Middle Ages these linens bring an easy, elevated charm to any outdoor setting. Their washed finish adds a touch of softness and makes them perfect for draping over a picnic table or spreading out on the grass for a more refined picnic blanket moment. We love the Canyon Tablecloth in Rose, for its rich texture and color, the ideal choice to place all of your other picnic needs. We also have napkins and tablecloths in natural tones or soft summery hues like washed rose or pale blue to create a subtle color story.
 

Step Two: Prep the Table with Proper Table

Then there’s Proper Table, whose vinyl placemats and coasters are as stylish as they are functional. Easy to wipe clean and surprisingly chic, they’re ideal for eating outside. Whether you’re serving sandwiches, baked goods, or just a cold glass of rosé, these pieces keep everything tidy and polished even outdoors. We especially love their floral and gingham patterns for a whimsical touch. But the Set of 4 Waller Red Chambray Napkins scream quintessential picnic.

Step Three: Add a Splash of Color Maison de Vancaces

No Clic style picnic is complete without one of our signature brands -Maison de Vacances. Their generously sized crumpled linen throws work beautifully as a blanket for lounging in the park or beach. We’re especially fond of their linen napkins in a classical checkered pattern that just scream picnic! The marmalade color is a mix of soft orange and red they add elegance without being too precious.
 

Step Four: Set the Table with Wonki Ware

Moving on to tableware, we adore Wonki Ware. Handmade in South Africa, each piece is crafted from organic clay and glazed by hand, making no two exactly alike. That’s part of the charm: plates, bowls, and serving pieces that feel artisanal yet refined.
 
For a picnic, we love mixing small bowls with dinner plates in muted Beach Sand White and Grey. They’re lightweight enough to carry outdoors, but substantial enough to turn an alfresco meal into something special. Serve a vibrant summer salad, display stone fruits, or lay out your favorite cheeses Wonki Ware adds a layer of texture and beauty to even the most casual bites. Pair with a chilled bottle of rosé, and a shady spot under the trees. Your picnic just went from simple to stunning.

Step Five: Go Eco-Friendly, Skip the Plastic Forks with Claude Dozorme

Claude Dozorme flatware brings real elegance to any picnic. We love the 24 piece set in fuego. It has everything you need for the ideal picnic (or any meal really) from, forks, knives and spoons in bold colors like, pink, purple, orange, ivory and yellow —chic, durable, and come in a sturdy box that is easy to tuck into your basket. Claude Dozorme has the kind of detail that makes an outdoor meal feel just as thoughtful as one around a dining table.
 

Step Six: Break out the Charcuterie with Peterman’s

Cheese and charcuterie at the park? Absolutely. Peterman’s Spalted Maple Oval Cutting Board is perfect for prepping or displaying food, and it's organic shape adds rustic charm. Crafted from reclaimed wood, it’s a piece you’ll keep using long after summer ends.
 

Step Seven: Don’t forget the glasses with Minizoo!

Minizoo’s glasses are light and durable with their hand blown figures inside. The Bee, Flamingo, Duck, Cactus, Orange and Lemon, feel like the quintessential picnic picks!  Minizoo glasses are fun and fresh without being fussy. Mix and match the colors or go with a coordinated farm or ocean set either way, your rosé will taste better in these.
 

Wow with Flower Vases with SGW

Flowers are a picnic essential whether you’re clipping wild ones on a walk or picking up a bunch from the farmer’s market, they instantly brighten the moment. For displaying them, we’re reaching for SGW Lab vases.
 
Handmade in small batches, SGW Lab’s vases feel like art objects— ach one slightly different from the next. Their signature distortion shapes play with balance and movement, bringing a sculptural feel that looks just as good on a picnic blanket as it does on a dining table. The Cylinder Vase in Nude combines soft pinks, milky whites, earth tones, and dreamy pastels add just the right amount of color without overwhelming your setup.
