Frequently Asked Questions About Picnic Blankets
Are your picnic blankets fully waterproof?
Our picnic blankets are designed with a durable waterproof lining that protects against damp grass and outdoor surfaces. The top layer is made from breathable cotton, adding both comfort and style, while the waterproof backing helps prevent moisture from coming through.
Are the picnic blankets machine washable?
Yes, all our picnic blankets are machine washable, making them easy to care for after picnics, beach days or garden play. For best results, please follow the care instructions provided on the product page and wash separately for the first wash.
What size are your picnic blankets?
Our picnic blankets are family-sized and designed to comfortably seat around four people. Most designs measure approximately 150 cm x 150 cm, although exact dimensions may vary slightly between styles. Bespoke sizes can be made on request — please contact us for details.
Are your picnic blankets suitable for damp grass and UK weather?
Yes, our picnic blankets are designed with UK conditions in mind. The durable waterproof backing helps prevent moisture from coming through when placed on damp grass or outdoor ground, while the breathable cotton top layer keeps seating comfortable in both cooler and milder weather.
Why do your picnic blankets have a cotton top layer?
We use a breathable cotton top layer for its clean look and everyday practicality. Unlike thicker wool-style blankets, cotton doesn’t hold onto twigs and leaves as easily, allowing debris to shake off quickly while keeping the blanket lighter, easier to clean, fold and store.
Can I personalise a picnic blanket?
All our printed picnic blankets can be personalised with up to 5 custom initials, heat-transferred onto the cotton fabric in our London studio. Your initials become part of the fabric itself. Simply enter your initials on the product page before adding to your basket. Each personalised blanket is made to order — no two are exactly alike.
