Natural Table Setting

Carson Downing

This arrangement turns the table on the idea of ferns as filler foliage. Instead, the mass of fronds is the main event, with only a few tulips poking out. The fronds also lend their silhouettes to a DIY runner (made with stencils and fabric paint in a few shades of green) and stamped cards on leather napkin ties.

For an added pop of color, pair the flowers on a DIY ombre tablecloth for a gorgeous show of pastel hues.

Marbleized Pots with Daffodils

An easy spray-paint technique transforms basic terra-cotta pots into Easter table decorations worthy of your best crop of daffodils. The dry paint can still smell strongly for a few days, so we recommend doing this Easter craft at least a week in advance.

This dramatic, romantic Easter table starts with lush arrangements. Bright blue cut glass compotes contrast soft arrangements of ranunculus, hellebores, poppies, and Juliet garden roses. A grid of florists tape over the top of each compote holds stems in place.

Let each guest know where they're sitting with a pretty monogram sticker.

Vintage Easter Table Setting

Adam Albright

This vintage Easter place setting incorporates everything spring. A mix of vintage floral salad plates sits on top of dinner plates with a larger, simpler pattern. (They don’t have to match. Just go for similar colors.) A cloth napkin tied in a loose knot is an easy flourish.

Pastel Flower Bouquet with Eggs

Bring Easter to your table with this dazzling flower-and-egg centerpiece. Place a clear drinking glass or thin vase in the center of a large-mouth jar or canister and stack Easter eggs (you can dye a dozen at a time in your Instant Pot in just six minutes!) between the glass and the jar. Fill the glass with water and arrange flowers (we used roses, gerbera daisies, tulips, hyacinth, and bells of Ireland).

Red-and-Blue Easter Table Setting

This red-and-blue color combo works well for an Easter table when a red-dyed egg and tulip are placed at each table setting. A solid blue plate between two patterned red plates makes the setting pop. If you like, switch out the place card with a monogrammed hard-boiled egg to make the table even more festive.

Editor's Tip: To dye your Easter eggs a bright shade of red, use a few ingredients to make your own natural dye. Roughly chop a few beets (about 3/4 pound) and combine them with a quart of water, a tablespoon of vinegar, and a tablespoon of salt in a saucepan. Bring the ingredients to a boil; cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain and reserve the liquid for your dye.

Mini Bouquet Napkin Rings

Elegantly wrapped napkins dress up the presentation of your Easter dinner table. To make the corsage collars, gather little posies of flowers and herbs and wrap stems with ribbon to secure. Cut a strip of paper about 7 inches long, notch the ends, and cut two slits about an inch from each end. Slip the posy stem through the slits to hold in place.
