Easter table centrepieces: 12 creative ideas for an unforgettable repast

When sprucing up a table for the holidays, one always want to try to create a memorable decoration: it's not just a habit; it's a way to celebrate the importance of the event and to create the right atmosphere. At Easter-time we look to making decorations that reflect the holidays and the coming of spring.

Table centerpieces are one of the decorations that we can put together easily and can make our spreads look stunning. Below, you will find 12 ideas that will inspire you when you make your table centerpieces:

By placing soft moss on the bottom of a wooden dough bowl, you will create the ideal scenario in which to arrange, for example, Easter bunnies of all kinds.

Using a wicker basket is also an excellent idea: with grass (perhaps artificial) and fluffy toy chicks, this decoration will be enchanting sitting in the center of the table.

Do you prefer a decoration made with flowers and... vegetables? Why not use a cabbage as a vase, into which you can insert seasonal flowers?

Simple, fast, but very beautiful: carrots with flowers placed in a glass vase. The carrots must still have their green tops, and as for the flowers, you can use whatever ones you like - from yellow-orange buttercups to any other type that matches!

Here's another nice and quick way to create an attractive centerpiece using a terracotta flowerpot.

Terracotta pots, turned upside down, can be the stands for a top made from old baking trays (or other recycled objects), and on these, you can place bunnies, or eggs, or chicks... whatever you prefer.

A timeless classic: a vase (or a basket) with colored eggs inside and then some flowers to top it all off. You might think of matching the colors of the eggs with the color of the flowers you use!

If you like Easter trees, even small ones can make excellent centerpieces.

If you have long wooden or metal containers to place in the center of the table, they will be perfect to decorate with the icons of the season. For Easter, grass, moss, flowering branches, colored eggs and rabbits are a must!

And instead of big eggs, why not put lots of small ones - like colored sweets - into a vase along with flowers?

Arranging nests with colored eggs inside cavities carved into a long, narrow wooden centerpieces, is a great idea.

A centerpiece made of clay pots with flowering bulbs will look great for the whole of spring!
