Talk of the table: a guide to Easter decorating

Easter is a great opportunity to experiment with an uplifting table setting, especially if you’re taking on the hosting duties. Lean into your creative side when choosing textiles and tones, adding some fun with nostalgic touches reminiscent of childhood Easter-egg hunts, or go for a grown-up eclectic feel. Find plenty of pretty prints, colour combinations and decorating ideas to help you make the most of the long weekend.

1. Add texture and tone

Say goodbye to boring white tablecloths and introduce pops of spring brights with our colourful kitchen textiles. Define each setting with a fabric placemat, each embroidered with colourful sun motifs, playful lettering and contrasting borders. Layer impactful napkins to add depth and texture by rolling into beaded napkin rings.

2. Mix and match ceramics

After all your hard work in the kitchen, make sure your dishes get the attention they deserve with some standout tableware. Don’t be precious about matching each piece - an eclectic collection of ceramics creates a vibrant look for your Easter table decor. With hand-carved details and uplifting colours, our Soleil range brings a burst of juicy joy for serving up salads, small bites, or boozy beverages. Combine with speckled ceramics and glassware for a guaranteed springtime feeling.

3. Level up

Bringing a variety of levels into your table adds interest and gives your eyeline different focal points. Mix and match colourful glassware with Easter-themed table decorations to add height, then draw the eye down with candle holders or mini bud vases filled with fresh seasonal blooms picked from the garden. Positioning the items along the centre of your setting creates an even finish across the table, just make sure you can still see your guests, and everyone can reach the tasty treats.

4. It's all about the vessel

Cocktails or cordial, water or wine, your glassware game needs to be on point. Add some stylish spots to your setting with pineapple cups and a classic gluggle jug, or embrace the aquatic theme with fish stacking tumblers. Whatever your tipple, make sure your glasses spark conversation.

5. Finish with a flourish

With all the essentials covered, it’s time to add the finishing touches. Display bunches of springtime blooms for a statement centrepiece or separate into bud vases and jugs for a stylish spread. Read our guide to styling flower arrangements in a vase if you’re unsure where to start. Finally, it wouldn’t be Easter without a few sweet treats lying about. For a personal feel, mark a spot at the table for each guest with a chocolate egg.
