In this post: Today I’m sharing my Easter Tablescape 2017. If you are looking for some inspiration for setting an Easter Tablescape, I hope you find inspiration here.
Easter is my favorite holiday. Some people love Christmas. Some people can’t wait for Halloween. Some people adore Thanksgiving.
But I love Easter for the obvious reason, Christ’s Crucifixion and Resurrection.
But also:
I love Easter dresses and little boys in bow-ties.
I love Easter Lilies and the Hallelujah Chorus.
I love Easter bunnies and eggs and candy.
I love Easter jelly beans…especially the black ones.
I love saying, He is risen! and people joyfully responding back, He is risen indeed!
And I love a good Easter tablescape.
My most memorable Easter outfit was when I was 5 years old. I still remember it so clearly.
It was a lavender dress with white polka dots and it had tulle in the skirt with bells sewn in. I also had a matching lavender spring coat with a white fur muff. How could you forget an outfit like that?
In college one year, I decided I would sew my own Easter dress. It was a peach colored empire wasted long dress with cap sleeves. I even sewed a scarf for my straw hat to match my dress. It wasn’t sewn perfectly, but I was happy to wear it. I couldn’t go home for Easter that year and I remember feeling sooo grown up.
I’m on spring break this week and will be spending one day on the hunt for the perfect Easter dress for this year. I’m kinda on a yellow kick right now, as you can tell from this Easter tablescape.
If you’ve been around this blog for a while you may remember I was searching for the perfect white dishes. I even bought a set from the list. Then I went out and bought another set (I know! That is so bad). I couldn’t help it.
I’m obsessed with collecting Milk Glass and I really needed dishes that would look great with my collection and would be user friendly. Do you know what I bought? Corelle. I know. Who would think Corelle dishes (the nearly unbreakable plate) could be set on an elegant Easter tablescape?
I love fresh flowers on any table and knew I wanted to pull in some fresh flowers but didn’t want to spend a fortune on them. I created some moss planters to help bring some greenery to the table and put a fresh hydrangea in each one. Cheap and pretty. It’s hard to complain about that. You can see how I made them HERE.
My mother-in-law found these sweet little chicks for me last Christmas. I’ve been waiting for the perfect occasion to show them off. I think they are the perfect addition to the Easter tablescape.
The little “bird’s nest” in the milk glass cups are from Joann’s. I found them in with the Easter picks. They come with a long stem which I coiled underneath. Next year I’ll use them in some other way. They even had the little faux flowers on them already.
I’ve never done the double napkin before, but thought this time it was worth it. I found the blue and white placemats and napkins at T.J. Maxx. I still saw some sets of them there the other day so you may want to check your local T.J. Maxx if blue and white is on your radar. The yellow and white gingham are from Pier 1.
I love photographing this table and will just share a few more elements from the table.
After I was finished photographing this Easter tablescape, Luke felt like we should eat a fancy lunch at it. The eggs in these photos aren’t boiled. He decided we needed to fry the eggs and have a lunch consisting of fried egg, grapes, and chicken tenders. It was a cradle to grave kind of lunch (I didn’t tell him that though). 🙂

Can’t wait to get out the door for TJ Maxx and hopefully some of those lace-trimmed blue & white placemats and napkins! Adorable! Love your list of why Easter is your favorite holiday. Very inspiring.
Thanks so much Kathy! I hope they are still there!

This tablescape is pure gorgeousness! Love the blue and white with yellow. I can see why this is your favorite!
Thanks Lexi! I’m having a little bit of blue and white and yellow crush right now.

Hi! I tried to print the spring printable from your March 25 post. It would not print on a single page. It showed up on screen requiring 3 pages, which divided the image. I love the image! Any suggestions?
I’ll look into that Linda. I think that might be my printable from last spring? I’ll e-mail it to you to make sure you get it. 🙂
Nancy
Love the table…and black jelly beans!
Bridget,
Someone else that loves black jelly beans? Hooray! Thanks for stopping by.
Nancy
So sweet and beautiful Nancy and yes, He is Risen Indeed!
Thank you so much Valarie! I had so much fun putting this table together and I’m so excited for the Easter season.
Hugs,
Nancy
Nancy, your spring tablescape is so classy and elegant! I’m so glad I stopped by through Ron’s blog. Have a great day! xoxo P. S. I’m signing up to receive your newsletter and will follow you on Pinterest. 🙂
Ginger!
You are so sweet. Thanks for signing up. I hope I include things that inspire and help you in your home in some small way. Have a great weekend!
Nancy
Beautiful table! Love the blue and white placemats and napkins. Great find for Easter and all year long. I popped over from Ron’s blog. Nice to find you. Happy Easter!
Thanks for coming on over Sarah! Welcome! I know I’m going to use these placemats and napkins for years to come.
Nancy
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful memories and table. I remember many of my own Easter outfits and how I felt too! There was something extra special about choosing them each year. Your table reminds me so much of my dear mother. It looks EXACTLY like her style. I hope you have a blessed Easter and a wonderful spring. This is gorgeous!
Thank you Jane. I found my Easter outfit for this year and for the first time ever, I’m wearing pants. I bought a gorgeous all white outfit that has a multi colored silk blouse that goes over it and it is stunning. This year I’m going to be comfortable.
Nancy
Hey Nancy! I must say that this Easter tablescape and your memories are beautiful! That Lavender Polka Dot dress must have been so pretty for you to remember every detail of your outfit! Love the blue and yellow and adore the double napkins. Seeing your cutie was the greatest ending to a beautiful post!!!
Thanks Shirley! I adored that little outfit. I kinda wished we would have packed it away. My mother had a pale yellow coat. We must have looked like Easter eggs. 🙂
Nancy
Nancy, your table is just beautiful — everything! What a wonderful post! Your Luke is precious! Love his suggestions!
I, too, share your thoughts about Easter! He is risen indeed!
Blessings!
Beautiful tablescape. This was the kind of post you just don’t want to end. But then Luke appeared…..and well ok. Great ending. Can I borrow him sometime?? 🙂 Fabulous job, sweet friend. Have a great Spring Break. Susie from The Chelsea Project
Haha Susie. That little Luke can steal the show for sure. 🙂
xo,
Nancy
Love the yellow with the blue and white! So pretty!
Thanks Jill!
Have a fabulous day.
Nancy
What a beautiful table setting! I love your new napkins with your blue & white dishes. The yellow checks serve as a wonderful complement to the blue & white theme. The moss-covered flower pots are unique and lovely. I also like the Easter vignette on your desk in the background. Everything is quite attractive!
Thanks Carol. I just have never seen blue and white mixed on a table and not loving it. It is so classic. That little desk was just painted a few weeks back. Thanks for noticing it in the background.
Nancy
What an absolutely beautiful Easter tablescape!! Every little detail is just lovely and I have the same chandelier in my house! 🙂
Thank you so much Vanessa! That chandelier was a game changer in my space. I had so much fun working on this table and it is for sure my favorite tablescape I’ve created.
Nancy
Ok, can I just come to Easter dinner at your house? Honestly, I am so smitten with every gorgeous detail of this tablescape! You are being featured at tomorrow’s Vintage Charm party!
Oh Cecilia! Thank you! Yes, you could absolutely coming to Easter dinner although I can’t promise anything very delicious. I decorate but I don’t really cook very much.
XO,
Nancy
Thank you for sharing your Easter tablescape on our Share Your Style Party. Yellow and blue is always so fresh and I absolutely love the milk glass with the eggs in nests–very pretty.
What a treasure trove of beautiful details! I enjoyed the stroll through your tablescape as I “listened” to your favorite things about Easter. I realized the other day that Easter must be my favorite holiday, too – for many of the same reasons you listed. Yes, He is risen indeed! 🙂
Nancy, I just wanted you to know I chose this lovely and beautiful tablescape as one of my features this week. Congregations!
I so love blue and white and with some yellow thrown in it is scrumptous. The napkins and placemats, what a good choice.
What is the blue and white pattern plate? I love it!
Hi Amber. I e-mailed you a few links. My plates are vintage but are the pattern Blue Willow made by several different manufacturers.
Nancy
What a pretty tablescape! I got the tablecloth with the same pattern as your placemats at T.J.Maxx. It’s a beautiful classic pattern! The bright yellow checked napkins brought in a ray of sunshine- love it! Your son is adorable enjoying his breakfast!
Thanks so much Liz! Isn’t that blue and white the best? I bet your tablecloth is beautiful too.
Hugs,
Nancy
