I had a wonderful time creating these beautiful Easter table decorations by combining various elements like napkins, table runners, plates, chargers, table linens, and placemats! My goal was to showcase diverse color schemes for decorating your Easter table, each with my signature Celebrated Nest style.

When decorating Easter tables, I'm naturally drawn to playful elements like polka dots and scalloped edges—that's the Celebrated Nest aesthetic! For truly stunning Easter table decor, I always incorporate items that add visual interest and texture. Below, I'll share links to as many items as possible and suggest alternatives where needed.

Green and white Easter table decoration

A quick glance at my Instagram reveals that green is my signature color for Easter table decor! The combination of natural hyacinth chargers with vibrant green check table runners creates a fresh spring aesthetic. For this Easter table setting, I used stacked scallop plates as the foundation, adorned with delicate mini branches and a charming pouf of moss, crowned by a white hard-boiled egg elegantly wrapped in twine.

I absolutely adore the combination of blue and white for Easter; it's refreshing, contemporary, and unexpected! The captivating blue of this Indigo placemat adds a beautiful touch. Paired with the crisp white carved charger and the charming blue stitch plate, it creates a delightful contrast. The choice of blue and white napkins was evident, adding to the cohesive theme. My personal favorites, the sweet lily of the valley, lend a charming touch with ribbon accents at each place setting.
