{"product_id":"picnic-journal-illustrated-guide-gingham","title":"Picnic Journal — Illustrated Guide Gingham Vintage","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThere is something almost conspiratorial about a picnic. You gather your provisions, pack your basket, find your patch of grass, and for a few hours you opt out of the ordinary arrangements of eating in favour of something older and more pleasurable. The food tastes better outside. The wine is colder. The afternoon stretches.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe front cover presents a beautifully organised illustrated guide to the essential picnic kit — a classic wicker basket, wooden cutting board, vacuum flask, ceramic plates, cloth napkins, tall glass tumblers, a full set of cutlery, corkscrew, and a roll-up picnic blanket with carrying strap — everything in its place, everything ready for the perfect afternoon. The back cover unfolds a generous illustrated guide to the ideal picnic spread — layered sandwiches, a board with cheddar, brie, and crackers, fresh apples, pears, and grapes, sliced salame and prosciutto, a tin of country pâté, a bottle of red wine, hot coffee, and mineral water. Both illustrations rendered in warm vintage style on a classic red and white gingham background, designed and composed by LeBonJournal.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: 5.75 × 8 in (14.6 × 20.3 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePages: 150 lined pages (75 sheets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerforated pages — tear out cleanly without damaging the binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper weight: 90 gsm, suitable for fountain pens and pencils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardcover with matte finish, casewrap sewn binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 400 g (14.1 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePicnic enthusiasts and outdoor dining lovers who plan their spread with care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood lovers, charcuterie board creators, and wine enthusiasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNature journalers, travel writers, and slow living advocates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFans of vintage illustration and gingham aesthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEveryday writing, recipe keeping, and menu planning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThoughtful gifts for food lovers and outdoor enthusiasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRead more: \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/new-old-time\/perfect-picnic-guide-history-basket-charcuterie-wine-gingham\"\u003eThe Art of the Perfect Picnic: A Practical Guide with History\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LeBonJournal","offers":[{"title":"Journal","offer_id":63316791886193,"sku":"29000327546151126350","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/5367\/0769\/files\/The_Perfect_Picnic_Illustrated_Journal_on_English_Park_Gingham_Blanket.png?v=1774098385","url":"https:\/\/lebonjournal.com\/products\/picnic-journal-illustrated-guide-gingham","provider":"LeBonJournal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
