Simple Spring and Easter Table Ideas
Quick answer
For an easy Easter table, start with a light tablecloth or runner, add fresh flowers in small vases or jars, scatter a few decorated or speckled eggs, and use soft spring colors like pale yellow, green and blue. You can do it for about $25 to $60.
Spring tables feel fresh and light. You don’t need special dishes, just a few seasonal touches that bring color and flowers to the table.
Start with a light base
White, cream or a soft pastel linen is perfect for spring. A simple runner on a wood table also works well.
Easy centerpiece ideas
- Grocery store tulips or daffodils in several small jars down the middle
- A low bowl filled with eggs and moss
- A small potted herb or flower at each end of the table
- Lemons and greenery on a cake stand
- A wreath laid flat with a candle in the middle
Place setting ideas
- A single egg in an egg cup with the guest’s name written on it
- Napkins tied with ribbon and a sprig of fresh herbs
- A small bunch of flowers on each plate
- Colored glasses or plates in one soft color
Simple budget
| Item | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Fresh flowers (2 – 3 bunches) | $10 – $30 |

Make it last
- Cut flower stems short for low arrangements. They also last longer.
- Keep flowers away from heat and direct sun.
- Use faux eggs if you want to reuse them every year.
