Easter is fast approaching and nothing is more beautiful than a carefully, curated Easter table. Each year the bright Spring colors bring so much joy to the season and set the scene for a splendid holiday. These are three considerations that help to coordinate a well thought-out tablescape that is captivating, but also functional. Set a THEME Each year I devote a lose theme to center around for my Easter tablescape. It can be as simple as a color, animal, or concept. Last year I was very inspired by the antique putz sheep I had found and I developed an entire table around lambs for Easter.

Vintage Easter Wreath DIY
Last year I fell in love with a vintage Easter wreath that was chalk full of adorable vintage Easter trinkets. The colors were so vibrant and it was such a charming arrangement of sweet little Easter baubles.

Overall I love the arrangement and all the cheerful colors, it just screams SPRING! Supplies Foam Wreath Form Iridescent Tinsel Garland (I used this garland) Vintage Style Easter ...
