This pop-up beach blanket design makes laying in the sand a less annoying experience. Schlack, which is currently on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hangpad) crowdfunding, is described as a multipurpose pop-up mat and towel that provides the perfect chilling experience.

It also comes with a stylish carrying bag that fits more than just the beach towel. The extremely practical yet aesthetically pleasing beach blanket design makes a safe baby play mat, picnic blanket and even meditation mat as well. The Schlack comes in four different and vibrant designs, including an eye-catching graphic pineapple. The circular towel provides the perfect spread so you can chill out anywhere. If this project is successful on Kickstarter, it could make your summer a more relaxing and comfortable time.
