While this cute condiment set mimics the appearance of a picnic table, it also equips you for all your BBQ essentials. The Mini Picnic Table Condiment Set includes a bottle of ketchup, mustard and salt and pepper shakers -- the basic ingredients you won't want to forget when heading off to the park.

The design is neat because it is self-referential. The shape of the stand itself hints at what it will be used for. Carrying all the [picnic essentials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bentley-home-hyde) in four snugly fitting compartments, the [condiment holder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curated-condiment-sets) exemplifies clever and meaningful design.

The compact self-standing set comes packaged in a gift box; it would be perfect for anyone who likes to spend time outdoors barbecuing. The decorative stand would also look great in kitchens and dining rooms.
