Easter Table Setting with repurposed metal

Do you have your Easter menu planned?

We pretty much have the same thing

year after year.
I think my family would be disappointed if I
didn't make all of the things they've become accustomed to!

What does change every year is

our Easter Table Setting.

This year I used many vintage items

and I'm in love with it!

I started with a roll of

kraft colored wrapping paper

with white polka dots.

Then I added all sorts of fun stuff!!

I mixed a bunch of different things:

faux flowers*,

faux eggs,

repurposed candle holders,

candles,

and paper stamping.

Last time I was at the flea market,

I picked up a bunch of random vintage metal goodness!

I think they were old lamp pieces and light fixtures.

I used a few of them to make candle holders.

I used hot glue to marry the pieces temporarily.

I'll probably take them apart and 

use them for something else.

If I wanted a permanent hold,

I'd use E6000*.

This piece from an old lamp makes a perfect

stand for a jar of white eggs, 

green grass and fairy lights*.

At each place setting I used 

a place card on a vintage hinge,

a linen napkin,

our silverware-tied with a ribbon,

and our everyday white plates,

on top of a wicker charger*.

The place marker paper is from

an old cookbook.

I used rubber stamps (smaller similar set here*) to

spell out each name and a

chocolate Easter bunny.

A vintage hinge is holding the placecard.

Each setting also has a stemmed glass

with a little baggie of (the best) Starburst jelly beans*.

I love all of the different metals together!

I stamped our Easter Dinner menu

on the same cookbook paper

as the place cards.

The menu holder is a large beat up hinge 

that is rusted closed.

Luckily it's frozen with just enough room 

to stick a paper inside.

I hot glued the hinge to the remnant of an old yardstick.

I just love the  wooden eggs*
and the pom pom chickies!!
Such a charming addition to our Easter Table!

Our shelving unit is right beside our table.

I couldn't help but add a few Easter touches there as well!

This is the perfect place to display ceramic bunnies.

Don't ya love that big one with her 3 babies?

That's just like me!!  

I painted a variety of clay pots* (DIY instructions here).

I planted wheat grass in a large one.

I stacked a bunch of different sized pots in a basket with

white plastic and chalkboard eggs*.

The bottom shelf displays my Easter Bunny shadow box.
