The blankets can fit between two and five people onto them and they roll up neatly, bound together by a leather carry strap.

They are made from pure, soft cotton which is both wear-proof and moisture-proof.
The brand was founded in 2015 and is now stocked in almost 300 retail partners, online and in stores across Australia, Japan, America and Canada.
Those who have purchased one of the rugs have been quick to praise its bold colours and portable nature.
“It’s absolutely beautiful and outstanding quality! The top material of picnic mat is skin-friendly and the bottom bit is waterproof. I can imagine using this picnic mat on the beach or on grass! The size is big enough for several people to sit on and it is designed to be carried around easily. I just love it,” one woman exclaimed.
“I love this picnic mat! The design is so colourful and cheerful. It makes me happy every time I use it. The pegs are also very handy for keeping the mat in place on windy days. Another thing I like is how easy it is to fold and store,” said another.
A third added: “This is a huge picnic blanket. I like how all four of us two adults and two kids can sit in this picnic blanket. This is well made and strong. This is also thick and the bottom is waterproof. I like that we can roll fold this blanket after using it”.
And if you’re considering a day at the beach, the Folding Wagon Cart, sold on Amazon for $169.99, is also flying off the shelves, as it has been named the number one best-seller in “garden transportation” on the website.
Made from a heavy duty iron frame, the sturdy cart can carry up to 150kg of items – be that a child, pet or towels, body boards and outfit changes.
The large wheels can also rotate 360 degrees, meaning it’s as easy to trudge over rocky ground as it is the pavement.
While many use the Folding Wagon Cart for the beach, others use it for shopping, the garden, fishing and festivals.
The cart is easy to fold up and store compactly in your garage, wardrobe or even the back of your car.
It’s made from thick wear resistance Oxford cloth, and has a five star rating on the Amazon website.
