Rainbow Nesting Container Set

When they're not transporting tapenade, bruschetta, and summer salads, these microwave- and dishwasher-safe containers nestle nicely together for simple storage. Best yet, the lids offer an airtight seal so you don’t have to worry about spills within your basket or lunchbox.

To buy: $35 for six, momastore.org.

Built Convertible Picnic Bag

Simply unzip this tote and the “table” is set with four sets of plastic plates, wine glasses, utensils, napkins, and even a corkscrew (one should always be prepared!). Now a spontaneous trip to the park will seem completely planned. The neoprene shell (that doubles as the picnic blanket) is lightweight and easy to carry on a long hike to the ideal picnic spot.

To buy: $150, builtny.com.
