Decorating a table for Easter is easily accomplished with the use of pastel colors, eggs, wicker baskets and fresh flowers or greenery. Making your own Easter centerpiece is even easier and can be done in no time at all.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Create an Easter egg tree centerpiece by filling a galvanized bucket with floral foam, inserting bare willow branches, covering foam with Spanish moss and hanging decorated Easter eggs from the branches.

  2. Step 2

    Coat a wicker basket with chocolate brown paint. Insert pastel shredded craft paper in the bottom of the basket. Fill the basket with chocolate eggs, bunnies and hens. Tie a bow on the handle and accentuate the basket with fresh flowers for an Easter centerpiece that is not only decorative, but edible.

  3. Step 3

    Paint a wooden or metal planter box white and hot glue pastel gingham ribbon around the top. Stuff the planter box with wheatgrass and white silk daisy flowers for a simple Easter centerpiece.

  4. Step 4

    Fill a straw hat with hollow decorative Easter eggs and artificial grass. Fill the eggs with slips of paper or ribbons with Easter messages for an Easter centerpiece that is sure to surprise.

  5. Step 5

    Place artificial or real eggs in a crystal vase and insert long-stemmed white flowers for an Easter centerpiece that will make your table look fresh and clean.

  6. Step 6

    Float open flowers in shallow water on a footed pedestal and embellish with miniature eggs tucked in the center of each flower. Decorate the table around the centerpiece with candles or paper bunnies.

  7. Step 7

    Celebrate Easter's most demanded staple, the egg, by decorating and displaying them on a candelabra. Use eggs in place of the candles and cover the base of the candelabra with chocolates or lush greenery to make an interesting conversation piece at the Easter table.
