We connected with Kristal from Winestains over our mutual love for picnics, platters and wine.  We adore the eco picnic accessory range Kristal thoughtfully creates with her Father Peter, all made from reclaimed vintage wine barrels! Being Fathers Day on the weekend we thought it'd be great to get to know a little bit more about the family business Winestains and what it's like working with her Dad.

Although, my base changes about every 6 - 12 months so I'm planning on my next location! I...

We just had to share this dreamy afternoon picnic in our own backyard. The pastel hues that come along with the cooler change in Winter inspire us so much.  Things sure have changed on the picnic platter too... we've switched out the cheese, wine and wine glasses for cookies, pastries and non-alcoholic refreshments in cute retro enamelware! We've teamed up with our beautiful friends from Kip & Co for a giveaway to celebrate the re-launch of their retro inspired enamelware.  Their strawberry bomb colour is the perfect match with our Pastel Forest picnic rug.  To win your own enamelware set and our Pastel Forest picnic rug simply head to our instagram and follow the prompts on the competition post.  Picnic...
