Spring is an opportunity to welcome joy however it blooms. Whether that looks like hosting Easter brunch or a simple gathering with family and friends, we’re sharing all the details for creating a layered, spring-inspired tablescape that can serve as an open invitation to all who take a seat. We hope these ideas are helpful as you set the scene for a meal to remember. Now, let’s get started!
Setting the Table
These place settings are neutral in color but nature-inspired in design. We love how choosing refined, simple pieces can nod to spring while still letting the textures of the food and greenery stand out. Here are some key pieces to help set the tone:
- Vintage Flatware: Each piece of this classic silverware set is unique, adding a layer of charm and story.
- Embroidered Napkin + Table Runner: Soft fringed trim, neutral tones, and an embroidered floral border on this table runner and napkin pair together to bring a thoughtful, cohesive look.
- Glass Tumblers: The waved rim of these handmade tumblers echoes the fluted pattern of the plates, tying the whole table together.
- Marble Taper Holders: Swirls of white and gray in these taper holders add subtle texture and a clean, fresh look that feels just right for spring.
- Florals: A combination of florals and organic greenery give a whimsical, picked-from-the-backyard feel to the scene.
