Easter Centerpieces

Before you know it, Easter will be here!  I love to decorate for Easter-bright cheerful colors and the celebration of a “new beginning”!

Below are some of my favorite centerpieces-most of them quite easy to make for the do-it-yourselfer.

How pretty and easy-Two cake stands, egg cups and some beautiful spring blooms.  I really like the yellow but other spring bouquets would look just as great-try some pansies, hyacinths, forget-me-nots, lilies of the valley, etc.!

Another easy centerpiece-a cake stand and cloche with an egg cup, a vintage photo, a small bouquet of flowers and some clip-art chicks tucked in a “nest”. {bhg.com}

This would be such a fun centerpiece for the kids to help make.  You still have time to start the grass seed {it takes about 2 1/2 weeks for the grass to grow and be suitable for this display}.

These would look so pretty scattered along a dining table and could even be used to hold place cards. {MarthaStewart.com}

This centerpiece uses blown out eggs {I have a mini tutorial available here}.  The eggs are hung from pussy willow but other blooming bushes could also be substituted.  As an alternative, you could gather some broken sticks and twigs, cut to approximately the same length and spray paint using white or a fresh muted pastel color.

Easy and cute!  Daffodils and Pom-Pom Chicks . {MarthaStewart.com}
