Peak summertime is nigh, and that means we're spending our days outdoors. By the pool, in the lake, on a roof, at the park—it doesn't matter where you are, any place can be transformed into a perfect little outdoor oasis if you try. And one of our favorite outdoor summer activities? The humble picnic, of course. It's easy to DIY and endlessly customizable. That's why we're bringing the picnic fun to our nails this summer. From plaid and gingham to fruit-inspired nail art, there are so many ways to rock a picnic-inspired mani. Scroll on for 13 of our favorite examples.

One foolproof way to rock a picnic-inspired mani? Gingham French tips. Start with a classic French design and use a detail brush to add lines in the color of your choice. From there, you can add little decals like stars and sparkles.

Berry Good Picnic Nails

Different nail designs on each nail: Stamp design with blueberry bunch on it, two tomatoes, red and white plaid, a white outline with a strawberry decal, blue plaid with little tomatoes.

No picnic is complete without farm-fresh berries, and neither is a picnic-inspired manicure. We love the teeny tiny fruit decals throughout this look, from the little strawberries to the baby blueberries. And the builder gel tomatoes? Next level.

The blue stripes, bows, flowers, and lace-like designs in this set make us think of French blue porcelain. Pair it with an empire waist dress and a basket of pastries, and you're ready for a Regencycore picnic.

For a hyper-minimal take on the trend, skip the blanket motif and opt for fruits and veggies against a clear backdrop, as forever mani muse Hailey Bieber did here.

Nails with different designs on each finger. From left to right: black and neon design, Koi fish, magic mushroom, fire in black and white tiles, red and blue plaid, cherries on a French base, flowers with sparkles, and a strawberry.

On the other end of the spectrum, we have an edgy interpretation of picnic nails. We love the neon touches and bold mismatched designs. (And that koi fish nail art is seriously impressive.)
