happy Easter!

Just stopping in to wish you a wonderful day today. I can’t resist sharing these pretty snapshots I found on Pinterest featuring lilacs and lavender Easter eggs.

Our plans are to have a small gathering of family over today and grilling some chicken to have along with a lovely arugula salad.  

 

My son made some amazing little puff pastry quiches for his Foods class, and we’ll be enjoying those as well. I’ll share that recipe later in the week. 

 

I also whipped up a bright and cheery potato salad, which I don’t make very often, but it pairs well with the barbecue food fare. It will be lovely to see family and enjoy cooking and eating which we love to do for most holidays. 

The weather here's been so nice, that we'll be outside most of the day.

We don’t have lilacs in the garden, but I’ll be out there this morning gathering some pretty blooms for the center of the table. Wishing you a beautifully nice day!

6 more gorgeous spring tablescapes

Did you catch our Spring Tablescape collaboration yesterday on Instagram? I joined a talented group of friends on Instagram to share our what we created with all of you. 

 

To celebrate the start of April, I have a preview for you of each one of these pretty tables. 

 

And speaking of April, that’s also the name of the sweetest friend from Pocono Mountain Cottage on Instagram, here’s her gorgeous dining nook styled for Easter. 

 

If this room looks familiar, it’s because it’s currently of the cover of Cottage Style magazine! I haven’t read it yet, but this will be the first thing I pick up at the grocery store next time I go shopping. 

 

Here’s a close-up view of April’s Easter place setting. Every detail is just perfect from the bunny plates to the egg with wrapped napkin.  

 

Next, we have Emily with Le Cultivateur. She took a quick snapshot of this pretty centerpiece on her table. It captures all the right details for Easter, daffodils in a gorgeous basket, a charming bunny and a few eggs scattered about for good measure. 

Shannon from Fox Hollow Cottage arranged colorful Easter eggs under a glass cloche for the centerpiece of her table. 

 

She didn’t spend a dime on her table, and just shopped from her cabinets and cupboards. Isn’t it styled just so perfectly!? Such a pretty room too, and those chairs!!

 

We head next to sunny Arizona where Lory of To Have To Host set a beautiful alfresco table. I love the elegance of her choice to use all white flowers and tableware. Isn’t it so chic?  

 

Texas is our next stop where Sarah of Blessed Crazy Texas Nest also set her spring table outdoors. She set this fun table to celebrate her daughter’s birthday this week, and I must say, that centerpiece is a showstopper! 

 

Leslie of Lemon Grove Lane is a favorite of mine on Instagram where she’s known for elegant neutral décor style. Here’s a detail of her adorable bunny napkin accented with a bit of baby’s breath. Instructions are on her blog, here.

Be sure to stop by each of our accounts for lots of beautiful inspiration! We’re hoping to inspire you as you set a pretty table for friends and family this season!
