Well, my latest must-haves are all about the Summer…and the perfect, Summer picnic!

1. The AWESOME table in a bag. It’s kind of the coolest invention I’ve ever seen and is absolutely ideal for a sweet, but elegant summer picnic with your hubby. I would just keep this baby in my car and whenever the inspiration strikes, pull over and set it up.

2. Candle in a bucket. Nothing ruins a picnic faster than a slew of mesquitos. This citronella candle will keep them all at bay, so you can kick back and enjoy the evening without distractions. Love that.

3. Just because you’re sitting in the grass dining on KFC, it doesn’t mean that your picnic can’t be all about the pretty. I LOOOVE these glass plates that will add such a special touch to your dining alfresco!

4. What’s a picnic without a little vino! This wine carrier hold two bottles of standard white or red and is insulated so your whites stay nice and chilly. It’s an absolute MUST HAVE!

Summer is hands-down my favorite season, so I am eating these little treats up. Plus, a picnic is such an inexpensive way to bring the romance back. And to thank your hubby for the hours upon hours of wedding talk! So, this round’s winner will receive…the incredible table in a bag, plus the picnic blanket that you see in the picture AND the wine carrier! Just leave your four favs below!

And if you haven’t already, make sure you set up your wedding registry for Crate and Barrel through SMP to enter to win $4,000 smack-a-roos! Take it from me, your chances are still really, really good! Click here for all the deets!

This time, we’ve chosen a COMPLETELY random winner, using the number 23 as our decision maker. The 23rd comment belonged to Sara, who said…

“My fiance and I adore Crate & Barrel! Our four current must-haves are: 1. The wine rack pictured above! One of our favorite date nights is just hanging out with the two of us and a bottle of wine, so a wine rack is necessary to make sure we have plenty of bottles stocked up for lots of date nights! 2. Wine glasses, to go with the date nights–and more than 2 would be great so we can invite friends and family to join in also! 3. Our Cuisinart Electric Fondue maker–because wine and cheese makes the perfect date night, making cheese (and of course chocolate!) fondue is a perfect addition–we LOVE it! 4. The rabbit corkscrew, to make sure we can break those bottles open!”

We have another giveaway on MONDAY, so all hope isn’t lost if you didn’t win! In the meantime, make sure you enter to win $4000 in our Crate and Barrel giveaway by registering through SMP. Click here to get started!

Word is out that we have partnered up with Crate and Barrel (one of my all time favorite brands) to do an INCREDIBLE wedding registry giveaway worth $4,000. And if that isn’t enough to make you squeal with glee, SMP is also gifting one of our favorite Crate and Barrel products every couple of weeks so that you can have loads of chances to win something fabulous.

Here are this week’s favorite four Crate and Barrel products!

We are all about wine right now. With Summer officially here, it’s so much fun to play house and have your nearest and dearest over for glass of vino and some great apps. It’s basically my favorite kind of get together. But…you can’t have a good wine party without the necessary supplies!

1. This FABULOUS wine rack. Perfect, perfect, perfect for an apartment setting. You can mount this baby up on the wall and not only have a great place to store your wine, you also have a pretty cool piece of art to show off to your friends!

2. The PERFECT wine glass. I am a huge wine glass snob.  A great glass just makes the wine taste that much better and these, the Adrienne Wine Glasses, are total perfection. Classic, forever chic. Love that.

3. The Rabbit. For most, this is a must have. If you are the kind of girl that likes everything to look completely effortless, the rabbit will be your best friend. It literally just pulls the cork right out of the bottle with ease, no muscles needed.

4. A stunning decanter. There is just something fancy about serving red wine in an absolutely gorgeous decanter. Even if it’s a $6 bottle of Barefoot, your guests will think that you quite the hostess. Fake it till you make it is always my motto!

Now for the giveaway part! If you didn’t enter our last one, to enter, just list your four registry Must-Haves and we’ll gift one lucky reader the first three products above! So that all of your friends will be so jealous when you host a perfectly chic wine and cheese party!
