Easter Tablescape Ideas - Spring 2008
The above Easter Tablescape features pretty pink, yellow, and green pastels with small highlights of baby blue.
Gingham always reminds me of the start of spring and summer.
Yellow, pink, and green gingham cloths were layered atop a plain white tablecloth. Yellow and pink gingham napkins were also used.
Cottage chic pastry stands were topped with birds nests filled with sugared bird eggs in matching shades of pink, blue, and green. The birds nests were also placed a top a layer of Spanish moss while faux spring flowers were tucked into the moss to add more touches of color.
So pretty - and the best part, these eggs can be stored away and used from year to year.
These adorable moss covered bunny rabbits were also added to the base of this spring centerpiece. If you'd like to extend this centerpiece beyond the Easter holiday merely remove the bunny rabbits after Easter Sunday.
In addition to the Spanish moss, bright green moss layers and spring flowers are also integrated to add more volume to the base of the tablescape.
The Easter place settings consist of white shabby chic charger plates, gingham napkins, and vine nest favors. Cute green and white polka dot place cards are also being used.
Other Variations on this Easter Centerpiece:
In the above Eater centerpiece, the shabby chic candelabra was replaced with a spring decorated tree.
In the above spring tablescape, another type of tree was used.
This tree was dressed with faux flowers, glittery eggs, and five inch bird's nests filled with additional glittery eggs.
For another variation of the spring tablescape, we topped a feather wreath with a decorative bird's nest. This bird's nest was then filled with chocolate birds eggs. Another yummy treat for guests' to take-away.
If you'd like to guide where you're guests will be seated, spring place cards can easily be integrated into any of these place settings.
In the above place setting, pretty shabby chic luncheon plates and our shabby chic charger plates are also highlighted.

I love how these sugared birds' eggs glisten in the light or sun.
