Easter Tablescape

It is great looking out my windows and seeing the grass again! It makes me think of spring, color, and EASTER!

I have found a new love, tablescaping. It is soo fulfilling to see a perfectly adorable, perfectly set table. Who knew! A couple of weeks ago, I couldn’t even remember which side of the plate forks, knives, and spoons went on.  My mom cured me of that though (Right=Knife & Spoon they all have 5 letters in them and Left=Fork because they both have four letters).

You will need:

  • a whimsical tree branch
  • glitter spray paint
  • pink & green tissue paper or crepe paper
  • craft/school glue mixed with a little bit of water
  • pencil or paintbrush
  • vase

Start by picking a funky fun branch and spraying it with glitter spray paint. I used gold. It isn’t overbearing with the glitter, but it adds a sparkle that I crave. Let it dry for an hour or so.

Place the eraser in the center of the two tissue paper pieces and scrunch it up around the eraser and twist it around a little bit.

Dip the eraser into the glue water mixture and then stick to the branch. It was easier for me to stick the flowers where the buds would actually be.

I love the layered effect gives. This is so easy you could do it in 5 minutes.

Pair the two together for a lovely Easter centerpiece.

Don’t feel like you need brand new china to dress up your table. I found these lovely yellow dishes at a thrift store and the lacy charger plates at a garage sale.

Use old jars and bottles decorated with washi tape and baker’s twine for an updated vintage flair. Top it off with striped paper straws!!!
