I decided to set up an Easter table for fun last week! We’re hosting Easter, so I’m looking forward to that. Sometimes I set the table early so I can think through what we want to use. Do you ever do that? It helps me to prepare so I know what to wash, which linens and centerpieces I might use or what I need to add to the mix. Other times I just wing it at the last minute! That works, too.
It’s fun to mix and match dishes, patterns and colors. That’s one of the reasons I made sure we had glass cabinets and shelves and even little nooks and crannies in our renovation. We don’t have a large home or storage areas to keep a lot of stuff, but I do love to see and use pretty things I’ve collected!
This time I think we may squeeze three more around this table, so I will have to adjust my place settings! For future holidays I am going to have a second table that we can set up when we have more family here. This is another reason we wanted the banquette, so we’d have more floor space to add an extra table!
Last year we set up an Easter table with these same dishes in our construction zone, so I’ve been looking forward to having a real dining area this year. You just make the best of what you have, right? It was fun but of course I was dreaming about the completed space when I set the table in the saw dust. :)
Now we have our little dining area to gather in and it will be so special to make new holiday memories in this home!
Are you hosting Easter this year?

This book planter is so darling, I couldn’t pass it up. It has a drainage hole, too, if you want to plant in it. I thought it was a fun “non-traditional” springy addition to the table.
The ceramic egg is gorgeous, each section opens up so you can use it for gifts, snacks, treats or candy!

So pretty! I found a blue and white ceramic bunny figurine at a second hand store and I have loved having it out this year. It always reminds me of you! I love your beautiful table. Hope you have a wonderful Easter with your family.
Thank you Ashley! It made me smile to know your blue and white bunny reminded you of me! I sure love my bunnies. Happy Easter to you friend!
Just love your beautiful Easter table with all the bunnies and other good things. I’m sure your guests and you of course will have a deliciously Happy Easter. Many blessings and thanks for the inspiration.
Aw that’s so kind, thank you Kim! I hope you have a lovely Easter as well!
Absolutely beautiful, an amazing table for your Easter celebration. I love all the personal touches you have added. I love all the bunnies you have collected. Happy Easter.
So kind! Thank you so much, Kari! Happy Easter!
Congratulations on settling in and making new memories! Everything is looking beautiful!
Thank you Tammy! I appreciate that. It feels great to begin the new year here with the renovation behind us and new memories ahead!
Your table looks cozy and so inviting. I love your window seat.
Thanks Caron! It’s worked out great, I’m extra glad we did this arrangement with the window seat since we’ll need room for an extra table and chairs next year! It really made our space work well for us.
It’s all beautiful. I’ve put the tablecloth in my basket. It’s perfect for my oval table.
Thank you! Yes I was happy to find an oval!
Hi Melissa, always enjoy your posts. I was wondering if you could remind me of the tile steamer you had recommended quite a while back. We bought a new home recently that has tile floors in the bathrooms and I’d like to keep the grout looking good. Thank you!
Sure! It’s this one https://amzn.to/3Qto5ha congratulations on your new home!
Everything but the tablecloth – oval ones are so hard to find, so can you share the source please 🤩
Sure, they are hard to find! This is the one I have: https://amzn.to/3x0HS27
