Easter Table

Yesterday I shared a few snaps of our table all set for Easter on Instagram Stories. I received so many questions about our table setting, I decided to dedicate a full post with all the details.

I followed Martha Stewart’s instructions to fold our dinner napkins into a bunny. Since I used linen napkins, I had to use starch to help the napkins keep their shape. The place cards are hollowed eggs that I painted with gold foil paint. Martha Stewart gives detailed instructions on how to hollow an egg. I didn’t have all the tools she used, so I created two holes with a needle and used an air mattress pump to blow out the yolk. I have also seen some people blow out the yolk with a straw, but I am not that paitent. After hollowing the egg, I covered the holes with white tissue paper and Mod Podge, then painted them. My placemats and napkins are from Williams-Sonoma, my china is Royal Doulton French Provincial and my silver is Reed & Barton English Chippendale. The centerpiece vase is from Tiffany & Co. and I found white hydrangeas at my local Trader Joes for only $5 per 3 stems. Happy Easter! xoxo
