Whether you're hosting a dinner party or having the whole family round for an Easter egg hunt, there's enough to remember to check off ahead of the Easter Bank Holiday. But, if there's one thing that you don't want to forget, it's to dress up your table enough to wow your guests with Easter tablescapes. From spring-friendly gingham linens to egg-themed candle holders - you name it, we want it.
Of course, decorating your home and table for Easter is not a necessity but if you're missing the unabashed joy of Christmas and are looking for something to spark some creativity, why not consider dressing up the entirety of your table as your latest fixation? Easter tablescape: think candles, centrepieces, vases, crockery and more - not to mention personalised or customised accessories to add to the season. Although it may sound a little overwhelming, even high street brands like H&M and John Lewis are having a piece of the Easter pie (or should we say chocolate?).
For the more budget-friendly Easter tablescape decor, head to your local bargain stores - B&M, The Range and Matalan all have some great pieces to transform your home and don't forget Hobbycraft for crafty buys that the kids (and you) will love. On the other hand, if you're looking for investment pieces (for all those future parties to come), look to Liberty and Selfridges for high-end choices.
From colourful looks to classic spring choices, sometimes we all just need a little bit of fresh inspiration. We've found all the best easter table and home decorations to create the ultimate tablescape - think chicks, bunnies, gingham and more. Added bonus, many of these pieces can be reused for any springtime event you throw - or even for summer BBQs.

FAQs
What is the best vibe for an Easter tablescape?
For the spring trends think bright, bold and lots of pastels. In fact, the more colour the better. This is the time for yellows to shine alongside blues, greens and pinks with a nostalgia for childhood. Even patterns and designs come into play when gingham and florals make their way into fashion. The most obvious part of springtime, though, maybe when all the animals come out to play.
When it comes to easter, of course, we all know that the Easter Bunny is the star of the show but classic British animals like hens, squirrels and sparrows can make appearances too, in cute trinkets and table accessories. Whether you've got small children or you want to get into the season yourself, now's your chance to be playful with your Easter tablescape.
