I used to grab supermarket coasters when someone came for dinner. These oak ones have been on our table for three months. The stag engraving is a bit rustic, which I like. Ribbon packaging made them easy to give to my sister too. One edge is slightly darker than the other, but that is the wood.

We used to burn whatever was on offer. I have had this little Yankee set since early December and light one after the kids are in bed. Christmas Cookie is sweeter than I expected, so I save it for weekends. Balsam and Cedar is the one that actually gets used on weeknights.

Our old picnic blanket soaked through on damp grass. We have used this rug four weekends in a row in the park. The backing keeps the damp off, and it folds into the boot without a fight. Pattern is louder than our usual stuff, but guests always sit on it first.
