Knowing that Easter is just around the corner, I thought I’d share with you some fresh ways to style your Easter table. Because there will be only adults at my Easter table, I opted for some more casual options highlighting spring blooms. Keep reading for details for these three looks.
First look: Foraged glam
Supplies:
-
- Small wooden frames
- Moss
- Golden chocolate easter eggs
- Mercury glass votives (silver and gold)
- Tall taper candles
- Foraged greenery (eucalyptus, white blooms, and assorted greenery)
- Ivory napkins
- Feathers
This look uses foraged greenery, candles, and moss to create casual elegance and multiple layers of visual interest. I began in the backyard, clipping white blooms and various kinds of greenery. Using moss, pull off round pieces and form into a circle with your hand. (To keep the napkin clean, I cut a round of wax paper and placed it beneath the moss.) I added three golden chocolate eggs to the center of the moss round. Loosely draping napkins in dark wooden shelves, I filled them with extra moss and golden eggs. To finish off the “nests” I added a few brown pheasant feathers. These nests became the focal point and anchor the tablescape. Filling around the boxes, I placed foraged greenery, mercury glass votives, and tall pillar candles. I love the neutral scheme of this table and the way it brings the outdoors in, creating a fresh style for a holiday that gets a table full of pastels.
Second look: Classic easter
Supplies:
-
-
- Assorted clear and white vases
- 2 bunches of white ranunculus
- Mint satin ribbon
- Golden chocolate eggs
- Ivory linen napkins
-
If you’re going for a more classic look, you can keep things simple with this updated take on whites and pastels. Using a few bunches of ranunculus, one of my favorite springtime blooms, became the focus of this tablescape. I gathered assorted bud vases and stem vases of various shapes and sizes. This table is still neutral, but makes an ode to classic pastels and spring by using white and a pop of mint green. I began by gathering vases and cutting the ranunculus down to the appropriate heights. Using fabric shears, cut a band of wide satin mint ribbon the width of each plate. Taking the excess ribbon, drape the long piece through the various vases. Place 3 golden chocolate eggs on the satin ribbon. You’ll have a classic, updated table in a few minutes.
Third look: Desert nomad
Supplies:
-
- Succulents (find the DIY for vases here)
- Found items (I used deer antlers and collected rocks I had on hand)
- Wooden shelves
- Tall taper candles
- Assorted bud vases
- White ranunculus
- Ivory linen napkins
This look is probably my absolute favorite. I love this tablescape because it is simple and tells a story. I have found all of the items from my travels or are memories of home. The single deer antler was found on a friend’s farm in Indiana and the rocks were found on early morning hikes at Whiskeytown Park. I gathered succulents from around the house and added a few fresh blooms of white ranunculus. Two of the planters of succulents I placed within the wooden shelves. This added some depth and additional architecture to the table, seamlessly blending organic and inorganic forms. The result is a beautifully collected and curated table.
