I have so much fun decorating for Easter; it's one of my favorite seasons to decorate for. I love that you can go all whimsical with decorative Easter eggs, Easter bunnies, and chickens, or keep it simple with fresh spring flowers and a pretty Easter wreath.
Most of all, I love creating beautiful Easter tablescapes. Particularly with our boys out of the house, we only get the opportunity to catch up on special occasions. The next time I'll see them is when the whole family gathers around the table for Easter dinner, so of course I want my table decorations to be extra-special.

Easter table decorations
Here are some of my best ideas for creating a beautiful Easter Tablescape.
From pastel-colored centerpieces to DIY bunny treat boxes, these Easter table decor ideas will add a touch of whimsy and elegance to your festive table setting.

Think about Easter Place Settings
Before I even think about a table runner or tablecloth for my Easter table, I think about the place settings.
The number of place settings will give you a general table layout and help you decide what sort of table covering and placemats you need.

Lay an Easter table runner
For a smaller group of four people, you might prefer to use two table runners across the width of the table. For larger groups, a full tablecloth or a table runner that runs down the middle of the table could look better.
Whether you prefer joyful, colorful table decorations or pastel tones and white, whatever your style, there is a table runner out there to suit you and your color palette.
For my Easter table, I've chosen a white table runner that runs down the center of our dining room table.
The farmhouse table in the kitchen is decorated with a neutral textured table runner, running the width of the table.
★Tip★ You can find all of the details for the above spring kitchen tour here.
Shop Easter table runners
Incorporate Decorative Easter eggs
Colorful Easter eggs are a traditional symbol of the holiday. Use decorated or painted eggs as a centerpiece or sprinkle chocolate eggs around the table as decorations.
You can even make and decorate your own air-dry clay Easter eggs like these pretty boho-style eggs in various sizes.

Decorate with Easter bunnies and chickens
Who doesn't love Easter bunnies and chickens? These cute animals are also associated with Easter; you can use them as centerpieces or decorations.
I used white ceramic bunnies in this pretty white and green Easter table setting.
My white ceramic, sitting bunnies move around the house from year to year!

Use a pastel color scheme for spring
Easter is associated with spring, so use a color palette containing soft pastel colors. Pale pink, baby blue, and soft yellow create a fresh and cheerful atmosphere.
This year, I used pretty blue candles, together with engraved wooden Easter eggs in my Easter window sill display.
Turn Easter baskets into table centerpieces
Fill a basket with flowers or spring flowering plants, and use it as a centerpiece on your Easter table. A basket can easily be removed from the table if more space is needed.

I created these adorable Easter baskets to use as gift baskets, but they also double as vases on my Easter table. Just look at those cute bunny ears!
Brighten up your Easter tablescape with fresh flowers
Spring flowers such as fresh tulips, daffodils, and lilacs are excellent ideas for adding a pop of color and a new, natural element to the tablescape. Mix it up with bunches of different types of flowers, or keep it simple with all one sort or color.
Decorate an Easter table with natural elements
It's no secret that I love to decorate with natural elements. Use natural elements like branches, twigs, or moss as fillers in floral displays to create a rustic, natural look.
Add contrast by placing plates atop placemats made from natural materials like jute, raffia, or wicker or wood.
Natural fiber placemats to buy
Use candlelight in your Easter table setting
Light candles to create a warm, inviting atmosphere and add a soft glow to the table. Include tall candlesticks for height, and add smaller tealights here and there for more sparkle.

Personalize your Easter table settings
Add personal touches to the tablescape, such as place cards, family photos, or homemade decorations, to make it special and unique.

I almost always include some DIY decor in my Easter tablescapes. I converted this Easter bunny basket into a vase for my Easter table and made cute, mini paper bunny treat boxes filled with chocolate Easter eggs, which I placed on the dinner plate at each dinner table setting.
Remember to ensure you have a good balance between the elements. Don't overdo it; less is more.
