GIVEAWAY: To Brighten Your Day: Tip 1: Impromptu picnic

That darn Groundhog might have actually been right for a change!  After all of the cold and snow we are actually getting an early glimpse of sun and spring!  To celebrate we would like to do some posts on things to do to brighten your everyday!  We will post ways to make normal days feel a little more exciting and fun!


Tip #1:  Plan an Impromptu Picnic
Grab a tablecloth or throw; we think (of course) you should pick one of our awesome vintage reproduction tablecloths, pack a lunch, and throw in some cute striped Paper Straws, and our adorable Poptop Bottle Opener, and you are good to go! 

No matter how old you are, there's just something about having a picnic that makes you smile and makes you feel like you don't have a care in the world (other than avoiding the ants and the occassional over zealous dog).....In honor of all things picnic, we would like to do a Brighten Your Day Giveaway!





Our tablecloths are perfect to throw over any table to add style and a little bit of retro funk. We can't guarantee the ants won't love it too, but we can guarantee you will be the envy of all park goers!
Winner #2:  Urban Picnic Box
Includes: 1 Boxsal picnic box, 1 compostable trash bag, 8 recycled napkins and 4 each of the following compostable items: trays, large bowls, small bowls, utensil sets, cold cups.


All you need to do to enter is comment on this post!  If you like us on facebook, follow us on twitter, or follow our blog, you can add an extra comment letting us know, and you will get an additional entry into the giveaway!  Giveaway ends next Monday, Feb. 28th.

Good luck, and happy picnic-ing!
