A faded old bedspread will certainly do just fine for a meal outdoors. But if you're having a garden party or want a special set of linens just for picnicking adventures, check out these lovely picnic blankets!

• Oilcloth Picnic Set from Chalkydoodle, $89.00 - Oilcloth is great! This set would be perfect for camping and eating at picnic tables.

• Organic Quilt Ladybug Picnic from SewnNatural, $44.00 - Intended for babies and toddlers, this blanket is a bit smaller than other blankets, but we couldn't resist the cute ladybug print. This would also be great for individual park lounging.

• Recycled Wool Blanket from ChiChiBean, $90.00 - We like the well-loved yet stylish look of this blanket. Plus, since it's made of recycled and felted sweaters, we can get it dirty and throw it in the wash without worry.

• New Leaf Green Blanket from kauaikwilts, $112 - Another elegant picnic set that would suit an elegant backyard dinner or a concert picnic in the park.

• INVASION Eco Screen Printed Picnic Set from Trishafern, $65.00 - We love the screen printed ants and the dual-colored fabric!
