5 Tablescape Ideas for Spring

Spring is finally here! Now is the time to welcome vibrant colors, lively florals, and festive fun into your home. Why not start with a stunning spring tablescape? Whether you plan to host Easter brunch, a dinner party with friends, or simply want to add a seasonal touch to your home, here are some spring tablescape ideas that will impress guests — and yourself.

Design a Beautiful Tablespace This Spring With These 5 Tips

Pretty Pastels

Embrace the pastel hues of the season in your tablescape! Start with a spring-inspired base, like a light-colored table runner in soft shades of yellow, blush, or baby blue. From there, arrange delicate candlesticks in matching or contrasting pastel hues along the center of the table. Instead of having one big focal point, you can place small faux floral arrangements featuring your favorite spring flowers around the candles in coordinating colors (or white to break things up). Then, add folded white napkins tied with pastel ribbon at each place setting.

Rustic Charm

Do you want to create a rustic tablescape for Easter? You’ll need burlap elements to achieve the look. Start with this large burlap bunny as a fun, unique centerpiece. Then, place small, potted plants and decorative eggs on either side of the bunny to really play up the holiday theme. Add mason jars or tiny lanterns to create more warmth. Balance the centerpiece with linen placemats, wooden charger plates, and simple cloth napkins tied with twine or ribbon to complete the tablescape.

Garden Glam

Bring nature indoors with a glam garden-inspired tablescape. Start with a botanical-inspired table runner, then arrange metallic or crystal candles throughout the center for a touch of glamour. You can also include small votive candles in decorative glass holders for added luxury. Get creative with your cloth napkins, folding them into shapes or using decorative napkin rings to create interest. Finish your glamorous spring tablescape with a lush floral centerpiece of peonies, roses, and hydrangeas, and accentuate with ivy or eucalyptus for volume.

Modern Minimalism

If you’re more of a minimalist, opt for a sleek table runner or tablecloth in a neutral tone like gray, white, or black. With a neutral base, you can add a small pop of color through your napkins. Try using a simple gold charger under a white plate. Then, you can top that with a celery green napkin in a gold napkin ring. Instead of having items line the center of your table, choose one centerpiece, like a vase filled with mini tulips.

Springtime Whimsy

Prefer all things whimsical? Find a table runner featuring wild mushrooms, springtime birds, or butterflies to create a playful tablescape. When it comes to candles and luminaries, mix and match! Play with different shapes, sizes, and colors to create visual interest. You can also achieve this with creative napkin folding — try to arrange your napkins as bunnies, flowers, or birds, then lay them on each place setting or charger for a fun and inviting look. Finally, add the finishing touches with a mix of spring blooms and greenery. Add colorful feathers to make the arrangement even more playful.

Embrace spring with these fun and festive tablescapes! Giving extra love and attention to your dining room or kitchen table will create a welcoming and festive atmosphere that will keep you happy all season long.
