The important thing to remember about all wood is that it was a living organism. Just like you, plants are made of cells that contain a lot of water and just like you would dry out in a desert, so will your wood furniture.

We recommend that you reapply a coat of food grade oil to the wood’s surface once or twice annually. Mineral oil is an...

Life becomes Groundhog Day and starts to feel like something that just “happens” to us. We try to manage our health, relationships and careers in a world that offers more and demands more and we question when, if ever, we get off this hamster...

The quality of this blanket is seriously amazing. We have used it to death and it's showing no signs of wear and tear. We can sit on wet grass without the blanket getting wet because of the waterproofing. It's easy to carry around and roll back up! This blanket motivates me to get outside more.
I used this on two picnics so far and it was really nice to unroll and roll back up. The material of the cloth is good and I love the pattern. I will continue using this on my future picnics too!
My ex girlfriend bought me this blanket when we were dating. When we broke up, she took the blanket back. I liked it so much, I bought the exact same one. Great picnic blanket!!
