Easter Table Decorating Ideas

Get ready to elevate your dining experience with the art of table layering!

Easter is the perfect time to refresh your home with the uplifting energy of spring, and what better place to express that than your dining table? A thoughtfully styled Easter tablescape sets the tone for the season, blending colour, texture, and creativity to delight your guests.

I start with a palette full of springtime colours. Think soft pastels, zesty greens, and sunny yellows, colours that bring the new season to life. Paired with blooming seasonal flowers, they create a fun and welcoming table.

For my own Easter table, I mix vintage treasures, handmade touches, and artisan-crafted pieces. To elevate your setting, layer in details like a floral printed tablecloth, mix-and-match plates, and colourful glassware. These simple elements, along with playful Easter table decorations, add personality, warmth, and a sense of fun to your spring celebration.

Need some recipe inspiration for the Easter break?  

As we head into the holidays and have guests to entertain, here is a delicious courgette cake recipe topped with fresh garden flowers.  

Courgette cake with a lemon curd filling

My daughter made this beautiful cake for me. It is dairy-free, incredibly moist, and scrummy!

8 servings

Ingredients:

For the sponge:

• 250 g courgettes - weigh before grating

• 2 large eggs

• 125 ml vegetable oil

• 150 g caster sugar

• 225 g self-raising flour

• ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

• ½ tsp baking powder

For the filling:

• Lime/Lemon curd

• 1 Lime

For the icing:

• 200 g cream cheese

• 100 g icing sugar

• juice of a lime

• 2 tbsp chopped pistachio nuts

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and line 2, 21cm sandwich tins.

2. Wipe the courgettes with a kitchen towel, then grate. The coarse side of an ordinary box grater is good (anything too fine can turn them into mush) when you've finished the sieve to remove excess water.

3. Put the eggs, oil and sugar in a bowl and beat until creamy.

4. Sieve in the flour, bicarb and baking powder and continue to beat until well combined.

5. Now stir in grated courgettes.

6. Pour the mixture into tins and bake for 30 minutes until browned. Let cool for 5-10 minutes.

7. Sharpen the curd with freshly squeezed lime juice and add to the middle of the cake.

8. To make the icing, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sieved icing sugar, beating well to combine, and then stir in lime juice to taste. Smear the icing and scatter the pistachios on top.
