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

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 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.
