Make a nature and simple Easter table centerpiece with touches of spring that will bring a warm and festive feel to your holiday table.
When creating this Easter centerpiece I knew I wanted to use some of the eggshell candles that I made. The brown shell offers such a pretty natural touch. Of course, eggs in general are a big Easter and spring symbol of rebirth, so they make a great statement for the table.
Making the Easter Centerpiece
- Start with an antique large dough bowl (or any bowl you have) and fill it with grapevines in a circular pattern.
2. Add a handmade bird nest with moss and eggshell candles.
3. Then add a few artificial berries colored gold with rub n buff.
4. Take some real branches from the outdoors and a few artificial pink blossom stems and set them in and around the outside.
The size is substantial enough to be a pretty focal point but not so big that it hinders your guests' view while seated.
However, containing the centerpiece in a bowl makes it easy to remove for dinner should you want to eat family style.

Note: I don't plan on lighting the candles but if you do, make sure that they don't catch any of the other materials on fire.
I think they look nice just as they are.
Other Easter table decorations include my newly painted glasses and a few spring pots. Some of the pots are holding more eggshell candles. One is a pot of faux white hyacinth flowers and in one I dug up a couple of small daffodils that will probably bloom by the time the holiday is here.

This looks very lovely. I'd like to know the dimensions of that bowl.
Diameter and height please.

Love this Patti - it's inviting, original and simple. You allow space for the food which is often missed. Feels nice to see pretty pieces of spring around the web. Blessings to a great weekend...

Thanks Carole. We often set up holiday dinners in a buffet style but there are usually other things on the table like a pitcher of water, bread, and butter etc.. so it's just easier to create centerpieces that can be move. Hoping you're having a great spring and enjoy your weekend.
