I’ve rounded up 7 easy Easter tabletop ideas which can be created in just a few minutes. I appreciate beautiful table settings and have a whole Pinterest Board dedicated to tablescapes. Creating a pretty table setting can be overwhelming and costly, but it doesn’t have to be. These ideas are simple and don’t require a ton of extra plates and glassware. If you look around your home you probably have containers you can use to put flowers in and Easter decor like ceramic bunnies or chicks to add to a tray. Chocolate bunnies and chicks work great too and as a bonus you can eat them afterward.
Easter always seems to sneak up on me. I’m scrambling to get my house ready for Spring after getting back from Spring Break. This year my family went to the Dominican Republic over my kid’s break. After wearing swimsuits and beachwear I feel like it should be summer, but the spring season has just begun.
To get more details on each project or see the full tablescape in some cases, click on the links I’ve provided for each one.
This table centerpiece was part of a Spring themed table I decorated last year. Trays work great to group items on your table. Add a glass vase with a few spring bulbs or flowers, a bunny and something green. I’ve learned that groupings look best in odd numbers.
I love this orange tulip and carrot arrangement from The Wedding Chicks. I’ve seen fruit used in flower arrangements before, but never carrots. It’s very clever and inspires me to think out of the box.
I love this chocolate rooster in a simple clay pot from Yvonne at Stonegable. She creates some of the most beautiful tablescapes. I’m planning on doing a variation of this for each of my Easter dinner plates, but I still need to run out to Walmart or Target to buy Easter candy. I’ll try to post a picture on Instagram and Facebook.
I love this Irish Moss Centerpiece from Martha Stewart and it’s actually easy. I’ve seen real pots of Irish Moss in the flower section of my local Price Chopper and you can usually pick up galvanized tubs at Home Depot. I’ve even seen them in the $1 section at Target. You could use any type of vessel and just add a few little birds and eggs.
I love this idea from French Country Cottage. Find a beautiful bowl, fill it with a few strawberry plants and allysum, a chocolate bunny and maybe a little wicker basket with a few eggs.
If you have nice white cloth napkins I thought these bunny napkins from Yvonne again at Stonegable were adorable. I’m not sure I have the patience to make them, but for those of you that are into origami they would probably be easy for you to create.
This project from Martha Stewart for Moss Eggs is a little more complicated, but still fairly easy. Can you tell I have a thing for moss?
I hope these ideas inspire you like they do me to add a little whimsy and festive flair to your Easter table. It’s little things like a pretty centerpiece that make me smile and if you burn the ham at least you’ll have a pretty table!
I’ll be celebrating Easter with my husband’s family and these carrot cupcakes brought a smile to my brother-in-law’s face a few years ago! Click the link for the recipe.

So many beautiful ideas, I don’t know if I could pick my favorites! I love the moss covered eggs, which I haven’t seen before, and the flower pot overflowing with Easter treats is so cute, too! I think I am in your camp when it comes to the creative folding of napkins! I don’t have much luck with that, I guess it is a skill I am going to have to work on! Happy Spring! Chloe

I love the last one by Martha Stewart. It is so sweet and simple. Also, I find that I have an every day Easter table scape that is has more tall pieces. During Easter dinner, I like the last table scape because the pieces are low so you can see/talk to your family and friends. Great post Dawn! Thank You!

Thanks Christine! Good point on having items be not too tall on your table so you can see each other 🙂
