Ten ways to enjoy your picnic table
Ten ways to enjoy your picnic table
Think a picnic table is just somewhere to eat your sarnies outside? Think again: there are actually a wealth of different ways to enjoy your picnic table. As one of the UK's premier suppliers of picnic tables, Benchmark (http://www.benchmarkpicnictables.co.uk/) probably spends a lot more time thinking about the humble picnic table than most people! Here are ten of our favourite ways to get the most out of this piece of outdoor furniture:
Picnicking in your own back yard
We'll start with picnicking on a picnic table! May sound obvious, but there is something lovely about being able to bring this fun outdoor activity from the public domain into your own back yard. All the benefits of an outside picnic, but with the kitchen (and bathroom!) within easy reach!
Get back to nature
The average UK back garden is a haven of nature if you just take the time to notice. What better way to make time than by grabbing a steaming mug of coffee or cocoa, wrapping up against the morning or evening chill and patiently waiting for the wildlife to come calling. From the best of British birds, to the ever-depleting bumble bees, timid hedgehogs and flagrantly bold foxes - even urban gardens have much to offer. Let your picnic bench become your nature hide!
Romantic al fresco dining
Dining on picnic benches doesn't have to be confined to picnic lunches. When the weather is warm, why not light some candles, lay out a linen tablecloth and your best china, chill the wine and enjoy a romantic dinner under the stars?
Accommodate outdoor entertaining
The British love a barbecue and being outdoors in the good weather in general; who can blame us when our winters seem so long? Outdoor entertaining (whether a full blown garden party or a few friends over for a barby and a coolbox of beer) is made so much easier with a picnic table bench to accommodate everyone.
Keeping the kids happy
‘Why don't you go outside and play?': the refrain of many a stressed parent! Make it more enjoyable for your kids to do just that by making the picnic table the focus of their play. Put down an oilcloth or PVC tablecloth and they can do their worst with the finger paint and you don't need to worry!
Increase your living space
Simply having a picnic table outside can in fact increase your living space. It may sound unlikely, but think about it next time you are hoping to read the paper at the kitchen table only to find all the kids' homework strewn around. A picnic table is another spot in the house to eat, drink, read or just get away from everyone for a while!
The gardener's friend
Picnic table benches are very practical for gardeners: they're a place to repot plants, sort out seedlings, take cuttings, in fact all those jobs where it's helpful to have a surface to work on which won't strain your back.
Spread out with the Sunday papers
One of our favourite pastimes on a wooden picnic table: enjoying a leisurely weekend brunch while spreading out the Sunday papers – bliss!
Create summertime shade
Back to the practical: choose a picnic table with a central hole for a garden parasol and you'll create shade which will become very handy in the summer months. Not all gardens are lucky enough to have shaded areas so this is a simple way to create some.
Gain a new perspective
Finally, we're betting that you don't make the most out of the bottom of your garden. Most of us use the patio or lawn directly outside the back of our house the most, at best keeping the back of the garden neat and tidy and full of flowers, but rarely using it as much as we do the rest of the garden. Positioning your picnic bench at the bottom of the garden could give you a new perspective on your garden and indeed your house.
Take another look at the humble picnic table and maybe you'll discover your very own favourite way to enjoy it. Browse through the Benchmark range of picnic tables and get inspired at http://www.benchmarkpicnictables.co.uk/.
