One of Sean and I’s favorite Connecticut activities is exploring the local vineyards. We’ve had a lot of fun enjoying a spring afternoon picnic and tasting local wines! Our first date was actually apple picking and a vineyard wine tasting! For us it’s not just about the wine, but the experience of taking a ride, packing a picnic, and enjoying time together. This weekend was our first visit to a vineyard of the season!

I admit it: I love the picnic part of our afternoon at a vineyard just as much as I love tasting wine! I just got this chic and convenient SnapBasket Canvas tote by CleverMade last week, and I was so excited to pack it up to bring some snacks to the vineyard with us! This tote is so durable-it holds up to 30 pounds (and was perfect for carrying the couple bottles of wine we brought home to enjoy)! I love that it collapses for convenient storage which also makes it easy to use on-the-go.

This tote is also really versatile: it’s perfect for keeping in the car for running errands. It’s also a packing solution for carrying your yoga mat and towel for a barre class, or towels and sunscreen for an afternoon at the beach! There’s a zip pocket inside the tote for valuables and sturdy feet on the bottom to prevent tipping.

This blue and white striped design is available at our favorite store-Target! I’ve linked the exact style here! You can also find 5 other colors on the CleverMade website. All these designs are so cute and stylish so I love carrying it out and about. Whether we’re enjoying an afternoon at a vineyard or I’m running errands on Saturday morning, this tote is my new go-to for convenient packing, picnicking, and hauling groceries! I’ve included a video below on how this tote works!
