Bring in the Bunnies with Style

A bunny (or two) hopping into your decor really feels like Easter. For a rustic modern tablescape, you would want to choose bunnies that feel elegant, minimal, and earthy.

Soften the Setting with Muslin Napkins

Easter falls within spring, when the weather gets lighter and the blooms get brighter. That’s why we love muslin napkins (which are lightweight and textured) instead of their traditional counterparts.

Go For Elegant Cutlery

Let your dinnerware do some of the heavy lifting when it comes to setting the tone. For Easter, we love neutral-toned plates which are then layered with refined cutlery.

Add a sleek and polished finish to your Easter table decor with our Monaco Silver Stainless Steel Cutlery Set.

Set the Mood with Candles (and Candle Holders)

No Easter table would be complete without adding candlelight. The soft flicker of candles can make even the simplest of gatherings more intimate and memorable.

When it comes to candles, the colour palette and scent makes a difference. We recommend tones of sage green (which complement the rest of your Easter table accessories).

When there are candles, there are candle holders. These provide support to your taper candles while also doubling as decor.

Final Touches

Make each place setting more thoughtful by focusing on the details. Pick fresh yellow and white daisies, and use twine to tie them around your muslin napkins.
