15 Spring & Easter Tablescapes

February 27, 2024~ Alfresco, Easter, Floral Arrangements, Spring, Tablescapes

Hello sweet friends. I am having a hard time believing that meteorological spring will begin this Friday, March 1st! Are you seeing signs of spring? Our daffodils are in bloom and their sunny faces make me smile!

“But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.”
‭‭James‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬-‭18‭(ESV‬‬)

I have rounded up Spring and Easter tables to inspire you! Easter comes early this year on March 31st.

To view the original posts, click the highlighted links.

Cherry Blossoms & Snowball Blooms

Two of my favorite early spring blooming trees are Kwanzan Cherry and Snowball Viburnums. I celebrated their beauty by setting a table outdoors next to the woodlands in their honor!

An English Garden Style Flower Arrangement

My personal style for home and garden is English Country. Setting a table in the garden provides an ideal backdrop for vintage linens and an abundance of colorful blooms in an English watering can!

Garden Peonies & Memories

Peonies from my garden are the star of this tablescape! An English-country style floral tablecloth and hand-painted salad plates add charm to a picnic table set next to our woodlands, all in memory of my beautiful Mother!

Anticipating Spring

Once the weather warms up, I don’t often return to the dining room for table settings, but this one was an exception. I paired pinks and blues with vintage Noritake floral china for a pastel Spring table!

A Colorful Picnic Table

Long-time readers know that I love color! I enjoyed styling a beautiful floral tablecloth spotlighting its colors with the plate stack and flowers! This explosion of color makes me happy!

Spring Green

After the grays of winter, early spring gives us the delightful color of green popping out on the trees! Adding another burst of spring color is our daffodils!

Hydrangeas & A Garden Table

Hydrangeas begin blooming in spring with their stunning shades of pinks, blues, and purples. They make any tablesetting quite special!

The Blessing Of Easter

RM’s carpet of rye grass is the perfect backdrop for the picnic table, set with the thoughts of Easter blessings!

A Casual Woodlands Table

I enjoy setting a simple and casual table with the basics. A wildflower bouquet was free for the picking!

Farm Fresh Blooms In A Watering Can

An April Cornell tablecloth complements the watering can and flowers!

An Easter Table By The Woodlands

Bunnies hopped onto the table but at least they didn’t munch on the flowers!

Quimper & Wildflowers

Blue and yellow are a favorite color combination, especially for a table setting! The gifted Quimper faience pottery is definitely the star of this table!

A Peter Rabbit Tea Party

Children and adults both love Peter Rabbit! My darling granddaughters thoroughly enjoyed the story that I wove into Peter’s antics on our tea table!

Shades of Green

I am totally amazed at all the glorious shades of green that God created for early spring!

Two Springtime Florals

Blue and pink plate stack complement the April Cornell tablecloth and the cherry blossoms!

Thank you for your visit and gracious comments. I hope you were inspired to set spring and Easter tables. Wishing you a joy-filled day!

    Good morning, Pam! This is such a gorgeous collection of spring tables! I don’t think that I could choose a favorite. They are all so beautiful, and I always adore your English Country style. We have had some really warm temps, and many signs of spring are starting to appear. In fact, my redbud tree is already blooming. I definitely have spring fever, and you have inspired me to start my spring decorating. Wishing you a most wonderful day, sweet friend!

    Color color color. I love all the tables set with flowers and April Cornell cloths. Green has become my favorite color and suspect it’s because brown is what I see here most of the year. Yesterday I was shocked to find out tulips have come up out front around the mailbox. In talking with my sister yesterday she said her bulbs were early this year too. Thanks for getting me in the mood to bring out some of my AC cloths. Happy Tuesday

    Hello Pam and Butch,
    Early this morning, after my time with Jesus and studies, I read this post and saw all the beautiful tables. Each one of them is special and unique! Particularly, I love blue & yellow, all the greens, the casual Woodlands, and the Peter Rabbit table, of course! It takes such an “eye” and wonderful spirit to take nature, the creations of others, and unique findings to create such inspiring settings! They truly take my breath away! I love the snowballs, too, and also, the wildflowers! Spring and Fall are my two favorites (Easter and Thanksgiving)! You make our world so much prettier! Thank you for sharing!! On another note, I’ll be participating in cancer studies for hours and treatment on Thursday. I’ll be sending love and prayers each day!! God bless you both so much! Love and blessings always, Karla

    The tip I picked up today: You CAN use a container covered with its own flowers to hold a bouquet–if the colors coordinate. I’ve always been afraid the finished display would look too busy. But your beautiful watering-can centerpieces show how it’s done! Thank you, Pam!

We had the most perfect spring day yesterday with blue skies and 70s, then today it was raining and chilly. March can be a fickle lady!

Now, we’re in a coat and gloves when going outside (but only for a couple of days hopefully). Hopefully it won’t nip all the budding plants and trees. I’m so ready for spring to stay; not just visit a few days and then leave! It’s hard to imagine that Easter is only about a month away. Enjoy your week. Thanks for all the inspiration. Clara ❤️

The table is enhanced by views toward the mountain, woodlands, and the large Snowball Viburnum. The verdant rye grass appears as a green carpet that has been spread for Easter! Vintage Fitz and Floyd ‘Herb Garden’ teapots, sugar and creamer, and oval tray are suited for springtime with their embossed bows, vegetables, and words. A bouquet of Kwanzan Cherry blossoms add more spring color to the setting.

Happy Thursday! I love setting a table next to our Happy Thursday! I love setting a table next to our woodlands and this is the first one of the season, an Easter/Spring table! I love all the sweet bunny decorations, but Easter is so much more. We celebrate Easter because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  His bodily resurrection enables all those who choose to follow Him to have assured victory over our greatest enemy…death!

 I look forward each year when some of my favorite blooms display their amazing beauty in our garden. Snowball viburnum in its full glory with large creamy white blooms. Climbing Lady Banks Rose is covered in hundreds of miniature yellow blooms cascading to the ground. An old-fashioned Bridal Wreath Spirea with its branches arching to the ground in a fountain-like growth habit is loaded with showy double white flowers in clusters of three to six that resemble a bride’s wreath. I still claim the Kwanzan Cherry tree even though it is now on our son’s property. Its ruffled pink double pink blossoms are some of my favorite blooms. All four of these blooms make up an arrangement with a few tulips from the grocery store. 

A fluffle of moss bunnies hopped up to the picnic table. A ‘Charming’ tablecloth with  Mary Lake-Thompson napkins and Williams Sonoma enchanting ‘Famille Rose’ bunny plates!

I often shared my sweet Daddy and his stories on m I often shared my sweet Daddy and his stories on my blog. My precious Daddy passed away peacefully on March 26th at the age of 94, surrounded by his beloved family! He was born during the depths of the Great Depression. That may have been part of the reason he was always content and loved the simple things. 

“A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, and favor is better than silver or gold.” Proverbs 22:1

After high school graduation he signed to play professional baseball with the Cleveland Indians Organization. His baseball career was cut short when he was drafted in the army. He was seriously wounded in the Korean War and was awarded a Purple Heart and two bronze stars. Upon returning home, he married my beautiful Mother and they shared 54 wonderful years together before she passed away suddenly. 

My brother and I grew up in a Christian home, bathed in love, calm, security, and contentment, under the care of the two finest parents anyone could have. Daddy was known as Pawpaw to his three grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. 

My heart is broken, he was the best Daddy a girl could have. I know he is present with the Lord and I rejoice in that promise, knowing too, that my Mother is also in the eternal presence of our Heavenly Father. 

For more of my Daddy’s story, click the link in my bio.

Welcome to Sunshine Cottage and the March edition Welcome to Sunshine Cottage and the March edition of Tea on Tuesdays. My inspiration for teatime is the beautiful linens from @april.cornell With the celebration of their 50th anniversary, many Heritage Prints from the archives have returned. Eden is one of the beautiful patterns that has returned. It is a soft purple paradise where butterflies float, roses bloom, and soft sage leaves levitate. As an April Cornell Brand Ambassador, I was gifted these gorgeous linens! I have been a collector of @april.cornell linens for many years…the floral patterns resonate with my love of English Country. 

I am serving my favorite, Earl Gray tea, from an Eileen’s Reserve teapot. Teacups by Grace Teaware and vintage Rose Chintz salad plates by Johnson Brothers add more floral patterns to the mix. Japanese Magnolia blooms were cut from my garden and placed in a lilypad teapot!

 And may God enfold you in His love.”

Happy Monday! With March bringing the promise of s Happy Monday! With March bringing the promise of spring and looking forward to our garden awakening, I planted a blooming bulb garden in my Sunshine Cottage! The butcher block countertop under a window, was a perfect place for a mini garden. Muscari, hyacinths, tulips, and daffodils danced in the sunlight and filled the cottage with an amazing fragrance! 

It is Monday Morning Blooms with friends Lidy @frenchgardenhouse Shannon @bellebleuinteriors and Mary homeiswheretheboatis.net

Happy Tuesday! Welcome to the Sunshine Cottage whe Happy Tuesday! Welcome to the Sunshine Cottage where it is warm and cozy on this cold February day. It is Tea on Tuesdays and I have set a tea table with the “Blue Roses” collection that was a collaboration between @victoriamagazine and @april.cornell The exclusive porcelain pattern and matching linens have been used many times and I still enjoy their blue and white beauty. Instead of fresh flowers, porcelain ones require no arranging. Sweet treats pair perfectly with a traditional English Breakfast tea. I am joining friends Sarah @sjpa48 and Mary homeiswheretheboatis.net

Happy first Monday of February! After so many cold Happy first Monday of February! After so many cold days, we are experiencing a tease of spring with a 73 degree day that is forecast. After the gray and cloudy days, I needed a dose of color and decided to set a colorful citrus themed brunch! Using a bird gold and pewter stand, I mixed a citrus medley of lemons, oranges, and limes with pink and white carnations as the centerpiece. The table is highlighted with blue and white dishware. Fresh squeezed orange juice, French-pressed coffee and sweet treats of lemon poppyseed muffins, lemon cake with lemon icing, and lemon pastries are perfect for a small brunch. A faux lemon topiary belonged to my beloved Mother and seemed a perfect addition to a citrus-themed table!

Welcome to Sunshine Cottage where I have been fluf Welcome to Sunshine Cottage where I have been fluffing for Valentine’s Day! For many years my Sweetheart and I have celebrated February 14th at home where it is quiet, no reservations are required, and we always have a table by the window! 

I love the traditional colors of red and pink! Frilly carnations fill a vintage Staffordshire, ‘Charlotte’ pitcher which rests on an antique Limoges plate with a velvet gold-crowned heart. The plate stack consists of a Royal Stafford ‘Asiatic pheasant’ dinner plate, American Atelier ‘Baroque’ luncheon/salad plate, Johnson Brothers, ‘Winchester’ salad plate, and a vintage pierced Bavarian rose plate! I am a huge fan of mixing colors, patterns, and textures for a collected look. 

I have joined 17 table stylists for a Valentine’s Day Blog Hop. Click the LINK in my bio to see all of the Valentine inspiration!

Happy Tuesday! On this very cold winter’s day, I Happy Tuesday! On this very cold winter’s day, I am serving my favorite tea, Earl Grey, in the Sunshine Cottage where it is warm and cozy! The magic of dancing sunlight enhances the table that is dressed with a warm tartan plaid throw repurposed as a tablecloth! ‘Winter Fauna’ bird salad plates from Pottery Barn (many years ago and now discontinued) remind me of the birds I watch from my kitchen window during the winter season. The Grace Teaware set adds more blue and white to the Spode ‘Blue Room’ dinner plates. Sweet treats were placed on a stack of Bordallo Pinheiro plates! A darling Hummel ‘Icy Adventure’ depicts a scene of an outdoor frozen pond with a pair of sweet ice skaters, a rosy cheeked boy and girl who have fallen down on the ice. I am sharing Tea on Tuesdays with Shannon @bellebleuinteriors and Mary homeiswheretheboatis.net Link in my Bio will take you to my blog post! Stay warm and safe!
