Know before you buy
The rug features a reinforced center eyelet designed to slide over the pole of most standard beach umbrellas. This allows you to anchor your shade directly through the center of the rug, keeping your picnic area protected without the umbrella taking up valuable seating space.
The top layer is designed to be absorbent for comfort, while the bottom layer is fully waterproof to prevent moisture from seeping through from damp grass or sand. This dual-layer construction ensures you stay dry regardless of the surface underneath.
The rug is machine washable, which makes removing sand, spills, or dirt straightforward. Simply shake off excess debris and toss it in the wash according to the care instructions to keep it fresh for your next outing.
Yes, the rug is designed for portability. It folds down to fit into the included drawstring backpack, which makes it easy to carry over your shoulder or store in the trunk of your car.
The jumbo 78-inch square dimensions provide ample room for a family of four to sit comfortably with space for food and drinks. It is significantly larger than standard picnic blankets, making it ideal for group gatherings.
The Happy Now Jumbo Picnic Rug is crafted using plastic-free and cruelty-free materials. It prioritizes durable, high-quality polyester to ensure longevity while remaining mindful of material sourcing.
