City Boy Grill

Filed under: Dining

The City Boy Grill gets its name from the idea that many city-dwellers don't have room for a full sized barbecue, but the real applications for this portable grill are many. It can be taken hiking, camping, to the beach or used in the yard. The feature that makes it a standout is the fact that the grill is gas powered and comes with a gas cartridge (which can be refilled or replaced); most small grills use charcoal. This means that there are no coals to deal with, no messy cleanup and minimal smoke. It measures only 8.7" high, with a square grate that measures 7.1"x7.1". The grill is made from stainless steel and has a heat-resistant wooden handle. Price: $300.

Picnik Table

Filed under: Decor

This sleek table is one of the most interesting outdoor furniture pieces we've seen. The Picnik Table, designed by Dirk Wynants, is made of 1cm thick aluminum and is one solid piece. The powder-coated finish - which is available in 5 different colors - is extremely durable, and will hold up very well even under heavy use. It is actually quite small, but this makes it ideal for two people, which very few outdoor picnic-type tables are actually intended to accommodate, not without having unused seating for 6 or 8 more people, anyway. It can also fit on a porch or even a balcony with little difficulty. If you do require seating for more than two, two tables can be placed with the open ends together to make seating for four. Price: $1,700.

Kate Spade Hobby Picnic Tote

Filed under: Handbags

As fun as the gardening and book totes are, with their respective detailing of tools and eyeglasses, Kate Spade's Hobby Picnic Tote is just a little more fun. Perhaps it is the changing season that gets me thinking about picnics and outdoor activities, but it doesn't hurt that the bag has an appealing shadow screenprint of a knife, spoon and fork on the side. Made of red cotton with a bright yellow leather trim, the open-top tote has enough room to hold picnic supplies or everyday items, so you will always have to option to bring a little bit of the weekend in to the office with you on Monday. Price: $245.
