174Leigh

This elegant Easter tablescape filled with capiz shell egg décor is the perfect idea for the adult’s table at your next Easter celebration. This is a serene setting where a family may sincerely join together in grace in reverence to the true meaning of the holiday.

“With our eyes we see the beauty of Easter,”

The centerpiece of this lovely Easter tablescape is comprised of eggs made with luminous capiz shells that have been painted with wildflowers. They are held within a vintage rose embossed bowl. Additional rose hued plates are stacked in layers concentrating color at their center. Floral etched goblets of rose glass are set dreamily upon capiz coasters.

“With our ears we hear the sounds of spring,”

Birds chirp mirthfully from just outside the dining area. Vintage capiz shell placemats float like fluffy clouds over the table. Upon them rests Oneida Easton flatware, elegant in their simplicity.

“With our hands we pick the fragrant hyacinths,”

Out of view, hyacinth scented candles perfume the chamber whilst scentless pink orchids provide the blooming beauty of a resplendent spring.

“With our hearts we feel the miracle of God’s love,”

Handmade napkin rings were created with love of family in mind just as the greatest Creator of all shaped the world with love for us. These which encircle sage green cloth napkins were lovingly made of the same checked taffeta fabric as the tablecloth.

“And on the wings of prayer and meditation we make our Easter pilgrimage to Him.”

We take our places at a bountiful table offering gratitude for all we have been blessed with, and entreat merciful benediction upon all who are less fortunate at this sacred time of remembrance.

May your Easter be filled with innumerable blessings.

Faithfully Yours,

Leigh

P.S. The charming poem verses are from “Our Easter Pilgrimage” by Helen Steiner Rice. The exquisite capiz eggs are from Pier 1.

Leaping Bunny Topiary Spring Indoor Garden Party Décor Ideas for Easter or even Showers, Luncheons, & Brunches

256Leigh

Say goodbye to winter storms and hello to spring splendor with a vivacious indoor garden party resplendent with leaping bunny topiaries! Put away the pastels and embrace vibrant carrot oranges and greens echoing this time of growth. Add apropos messages spelled out in hedgerow letters declaring the true reason for the Easter season. Give lettuce-edged napkins the bunny ear treatment as a tongue-in-cheek homage to all those cherished family photos. Layer chevron patterning with textural fibers to modernize the fête’s décor, forming an ensemble proclaiming, “Hello Spring!”

252Leigh

Crisp orange and white chevron fabric awakens the senses, making it the perfect underpinning for this little soiree. (My mother actually made this tablecloth, which is amazing for someone who has repeatedly stated, “I don’t sew.”)

Layered on that are round raffia mats placed as chargers. Rustic sage green plates are topped with orange salad bowls filled with fresh garden salads of baby greens like kale, spinach, and chard, with orange heirloom cherry tomatoes, English cucumbers, fresh parsley, sprouted pumpkin seeds, and crunchy carrot croutons. (Find the easy recipe for it here.)

149Leigh

Daily flatware is used, with the exception of the knives which have been exchanged with lovely patterned versions. (Mixing patterns is not only okay, but fantastic!)

139Leigh

Orange burlap bunny ears napkin rings hold lettuce-edge napkins matching the sage plates. (Learn how to easily make your own rings here.)

Understated water glasses were chosen as the only simple elements on the tablescape. Carrot lollipops with jute bows sit in place of dessert spoons. (Find them on sale at affiliate Oriental Trading Company. The link in the side bar adds a coupon with free shipping to your cart automatically.)

Baby leaping bunny topiaries sprout from burlap covered carrot pots above each place setting. (Learn how to craft them easily here.) Tiny printable carrots act as place-cards for each invitee. (Snag my free printables here.)

Big bunny mama springs from the center of the table in declaration of a beautiful life.

257Leigh

Orange twine wrapped Easter eggs sit on the grass beneath her. Twine and crepe carrots suggest growth of one’s soul.

294Leigh

Faith stands as the center of the celebration both literally and figuratively. (The hedgerow letters are bandaged with burlap and jute symbolizing that one may be battered, but not broken when one has such faith.)

063Leigh

The side table holds another hedgerow spelling Believe. It sits with an additional egg enmeshed in a swirl of vibrant chevrons and burlap lilies.

198Leigh

A green trunk elevates another bunny constructed of grapevines holding both faux farm eggs and green bird eggs.

183Leigh

Above that a carrot wreath with my topiary printable hangs next to my banner. (Find the carrot wreath at affiliate Cost Plus World Market whose sale link is in the sidebar.)

209Leigh

The end of my printable bunny and carrot banner sits close to a burlap carrot sign extending an honest welcome to all enter. (Get my free printables here.)
