Welcome, welcome to the Easter table tour.
I love to set a pretty table for Easter! We don’t usually have company, but still, it’s a very special holiday and I love all of the touches of spring also. Last year’s Easter table can be found HERE. That table was carefully crafted with each item having a special meaning. This year I did something a bit different.
Before I dive into the Easter table, let me mention our podcast episode today is
DECORATING SHELVES
I love to use real vintage linen napkins are these are especially pretty. They are a bit frayed in places, but still have loads of charm.
I love lambs and of course since this is Resurrection Sunday (AKA Easter) I have to have a lamb on my table. This one is made of concrete.
I’ve got some lovely plants on my table, because I love seeing something pretty and alive. Some of my paperwhites shown are still blooming. I talked about forcing paperwhites, HERE. I’ve also got a moss ball on the table, directions HERE. It’s nice to use some of your prettiest dishes for these special occasions. The large blue and white pitcher is from France.
You can use bud vases for flowers at every place or use little cordial glasses like this one from France. I used very old lavender plates and blue and white plates. I love blue and lavender together.
I’ve got more lavender dishes in the plate racks.
I’ve shown this silverware before, but it’s one of my very favorites. This is a set of French silverware I found on eBay.
I hope you have a blessed Easter!

Very pretty table, and I love lambs too! On another note, I was wondering if you are planning to be at the antique show (Round top) this week? I am planning to go Tuesday and hope to meet you.

David says
I especially love the lamb. Where did you find it? Can you give a source where I might purchase one?
Thanks for your help and for your beautiful blog.
Anita says
David, I found it at Heights Antiques on Yale in Houston. It is vintage, so they only had one. These are hard to find.
Lidy@FrenchGardenHouse says
You KNOW I love this table! French plates, transferware, blue, lavender, linen, silver, all the things we both love. Such a beautiful table for Easter, Anita. Gorgeous.
Deb says
What a sweet Resurrection Sunday table. Love the lamb. Such a sweet way to honor our Lord.
Thank you.
Rhonda says
I love this table, but would you believe, just earlier today before receiving your post, I’d googled your last year’s Resurrection Sunday table. That has been in my mind since last year to do something similar. I, too, have a few items which symbolises Jesus and his resurrection. However, my Daughter-in-Law has informed me I have to keep one tradition – I fill a dome with “egg size” chocolate Easter eggs and, after the meal one of the grandchildren gets to lift the “lid” and the eggs tumble everywhere!
It’s such an important day to remember, but we can still have lots of fun. Thanks for your many ideas which set the imagination in overdrive.

So happy to see you back today! I was wondering what had happened, I’m glad it was just a technical glitch and not something personal…we can certainly work through the technical glitches. My house is all decked out for the Resurrection, but my dining room table is in need of some ideas…so lovely to see all of these tablescapes❤I hope you and your family have a Blessed Easter!

Such a lovely table! I especially love the combination of the lavender and blue and white plates.
Bonnie says
