Adding the Final Touches For Easter

Hello, friends! Thank you for stopping by to say hello for a few minutes today. I am so glad the kiddos are beginning Spring Break, so we can spend some much-needed time together! Earlier today, I spent a bit of time putting together the finishing touches for our Easter Sunday celebration. Just a bit of tweaking here and there...nothing too complicated, will make for a sweet time that is enjoyable and relaxing. I hope you enjoy the post!

More Flowers For the Entry

I recently shared the tutorial for very simple baskets which I have hung on my front doors.

To make the entry even more welcoming, I added another arrangement indicative of the Spring season. I began on my little garden pillar. I added a large urn. On the urn, I set a large rustic basket.

I made sure to use a basket with almost the same diameter bottom as the mouth of the urn.

I have filled the basket with colorful blooms such as lilacs, lilies, daffodils, delphinium, grasses, et cetera...

and a sweet little bunny.

Isn't he cute?

To anchor him, I simply used a bamboo skewer. I pushed the skewer into a tiny hole in the bottom of Mr. Cottontail

and placed it into the basket.

There's nothing like flowers for Easter!!

Setting The Table With Flair

For this year's Easter Tablescape, I am keeping things simple with a beautiful palette of fresh spring color.

Fresh white linen, crisp blue,

and soft, springy yellow,

makes for an elegant yet low-key setting.

A simple centerpiece of ample flowers in antique English Crockery,

sweet dessert forks,

and silver flatware

completes and compliments the setting.

I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather and bounty of Spring!

Set Your Table with Flair--Elegant Easter Setting

Easter is a beautiful holiday. Other than Christmas and Thanksgiving, it is the consummate holiday opportunity to celebrate with family and friends. I also love its season; the beauty of spring. Ahhh, Tempus Vernum! This is my interpretation for an elegant Easter table setting. The first setting is a more classic setting; the second, although elegant, is a little more fun and kitschy.

First Setting

For this theme, I chose to leave the table barren of linen. I set the plates and saucers, glasses and coffee cups, place settings and serveware first.

Next, I added the napkins and floral napkin rings. I wanted the color theme to be indicative of Spring, and I love to set an eclectic arrangement, so I used both green and cream napkins.

You may also opt to set your table with bowls. Shown here.

Here is a close up of each setting.

With Bowl.

Plates, saucers, small bowls, large serving bowls, and coffee cups; Ralph Lauren Whipstitch Cream Collection

Glassware, Ralph Lauren Glen Plaid Collection

Silk shaunting napkins, generic

Peony napkin rings, Bed, Bath, and Beyond

Floral arrangement, by yours truly using glass vase and faux snapdragons from Tai Pan Trading and faux peonies from Wal-mart.

Second Setting

I began by using the large plate as a charger. On top of that, I placed these petal saucers.

Next, I placed these flower-shaped bowls.

Here is a close up. For the more whimsical setting, I used these fruit and berries napkin rings.

I also love to set the table with traditional seasonal Easter Lilies. For a lovely home fragrance, may I recommend Ralph Lauren Seaside. It is a very fresh, clean scent. The description on the box reads, "A blend of leafy green, juicy white peach, and lemongrass."
