Create a Simple Easter Tablescape and Dinner Menu

Flowers, dyed eggs, fresh herbs—all ready the Easter dinner table for a family celebration.

Potted herbs and ceramic birds create an inexpensive centerpiece that, with a little watering, will last the season. White dinnerware, sparkling glassware, and teal and beige napkins lighten up the rustic farm table. On the kids’ table, dyed eggs and flower-filled eggcups add whimsy. This spring setting is fit for an Easter feast, whether you serve traditional family dishes or try our tasty menu that’s perfect for springtime.

In times past eggcups were just used for eggs, but today multi-purposing is the name of the game. So gather old eggcups from the back of the cupboard, or scout your favorite flea markets for a supply to use as miniature vases for your spring table. Snip some colorful flowers from your garden and you have the beginnings of a lovely spring centerpiece.

Mix fresh herbs with flowers in vases to add fragrances and textures not found in traditional bouquets. Use whatever you have in the garden—or even in the refrigerator. It’s not always necessary to make a stop at the florist to have beautiful arrangements.
