Not all picnic grass is perfectly level sometimes it can be difficult to get your cup or bottles to balance. We came up with this great idea to make a level surface for your next picnic.

Using an old board from a board game we created a chalkboard “table” to use at your next picnic. We chose one that folds up into quarters because it fit perfectly in our picnic basket.

If you were wondering this board came from the Home Improvement game.

We covered ours in chalkboard contact paper. We used this because it’s waterproof and adds another fun element to our table.  Peel and stick the paper to your board.  If your board folds in quarters like ours you’ll need to cut the contact paper where the board is in two pieces so that it will fold up the same as before.

After that you are ready to go! Cups and dishes stay upright and if you made a chalkboard like us you’ll have a space for games and drawings, while you are picnicking . 

Don’t forget the chalk!
