An easy Easter centerpiece comes together
It’s time for another Pinterest Challenge hosted by Cindy of County Road 407. Several bloggers come together each month inspired by one photo from Pinterest to style a space in or vignette based on that image. I’m so honored to be part of the challenge again this month. This month’s challenge: An easy Easter centerpiece.
(Affiliate links are used for your convenience. Read my full disclosure here.)
I love seeing how different each bloggers’ post turns out as each of us adds our own style to the challenge. At the bottom of this post you’ll find links for all bloggers on the tour.
This month’s inspiration photo is from Worthing Court. Suzy styled a beautiful Easter centerpiece on her dining room table.
Here are the elements I’m seeing in the photo and adapting to my own style:
- Stack of Plates
- Birds Nest
- Bunny
- Pitcher
- Candles
- Runner
- Placemats
- Terra Cotta
- Greenery
Want to see past challeges:
If you are coming over from Everyday Edits welcome to our lakeside log cabin home. Weren’t you inspired by her take on the challenge!!
It is finally Spring in The Northwoods of Wisconsin. Spring here is mud season. Our many inches of snow are beginning to melt into puddles everywhere. Our thousands of lakes are beginning to thaw. The lake behind out house often doesn’t open until the end of April. Last year it was May 1.
We could still get some snow falls for the next several weeks, though now they will melt soon after falling.

How to Make an Easy Easter Centerpiece
One of the main differences you will see in my centerpiece and the inspiration photo is that I did not use a tiered tray. I don’t even own one. It may be hard to believe, but I’m a decor blogger who has never been to Ikea, owns no Rae Dunn and no tiered tray! LOL!
Stack of Plates
For my stack of plates I pulled out my jadeite pieces. I have not jumped into collecting real jadeite yet. These plates are part of the Pioneer Woman collection from Walmart that I found a pretty and affordable way to get the look.
Birds Nest
I used one of my little birds nests on top of the plate stack just like Suzy did in the inspiration photo. I love the texture and Spring touch that gives!
I decided to add a few eggs and a bird on top too.
Bunny
Suzy used a pretty little white ceramic bunny, I decided to bring in my rustic style with my wood bark bunny.
To bring in an item like the white of the bunny, I added my sweet little hen on nest that I found a few years ago. I’ve always wanted to collect them, but so far have only brought home this one.
Pitcher
This Tiffany & Co pitcher was a wedding gift. I usually leave it out all the time on one of my kitchen shelves, but pulled it off to add add to the centerpiece for it’s beautiful Spring colors.
Candles
I decided to add a little moss from The Dollar Tree around my candle.
Runner
I have a burlap runner I love, but I decided to use this cream colored one with the jute woven through instead.
Placemats
I love using lots of texture with woven baskets and other items in the Spring. My woven placemats bring this element in.
Terra Cotta
I can’t wait to start working on my gardens and the addition of terra cotta pots to the centerpiece make me think of that. Here at the cabin I have one raised veggie garden (last year I did a salsa garden) and then my flower beds.
I also do big vegetable gardens and a pumpkin patch at our land further south in The Driftless Area of Wisconsin. This year I’m also adding a cutting garden there. Follow along to see see how it goes!
Greenery
For some of my greenery I used faux cabbage heads. i added one to this jadeite footed bowl.
This set up took minutes and brought in not only touches of Spring with the green colors and touches of the garden in the cabbage and terra cotta, but also Easter with the bunny figure.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you find inspiration from my tour and the others for your own Easter decor!
Next up you are headed down to my home state of Texas to visit my friend Laura’s beautiful home where she blogs at Décor To Adore. Laura is so talented in so many ways, decorating, gardening, sewing… She inspires me so much. You’ll love her Spring decor in her kitchen!

Your centerpiece is just fabulous! I adore the jadeite and the rustic bunny. I have some old fencing that I might just have to have to create a fluffle of bunnies.
Niky says

The touches of Jadeite work perfectly for this beautiful spring centerpiece. You have such a talent for pulling it all together! Thanks for sharing!

Your plates are so perfect for this time of year and extra perfect for this challenge! Love what you created. And I totally want a cabbage head to use as greenery! So cute. Hope you get to enjoy your tablescape for a while. Happy Spring and thank you for joining in this month. Pinned

Since I don’t have any jadeite I’ll just have to admire yours instead. The Tiffany pitcher is a lovely piece, and so pretty in your spring display. I’m really interested in your salsa garden! We just planted peppers! 😊

Thanks so much Michelle! I thought the Tiffany pitcher was such a fun gift!
Julie Briones says
So many pretty elements, Kristin! I would love to see how the whole centerpiece came together! 🙂
Lora Bloomquist says
I am so crushing on that Pioneer Woman jadeite; might need to check those out, but the last thing I need is more dishes! Love your rustic bark bunny in the mix. Yes, we woke up to snow today, yesterday it rained all day; that’s March in the north!
[email protected] says
I know what you mean Lora! I’m working on a project just for my dishes right now! LOL!
Kim | Shiplap and Shells says
I have those same jadeite dishes from Pioneer Woman Kristin and love the color. And the cabbages are such a pretty touch. Such beautiful details for the perfect spring centerpiece.
[email protected] says
I always love those dishes on your table!!! Thanks so much Kim!
Angie @ Postcards from the Ridge says
Kristin, I love how you used what you had and gave the centerpiece your own spin. That bark bunny is perfect, and the Pioneer Woman dishes are beautiful. Love the eggs too.

Thanks so much Angie!

Kristin, I love the big cabbage and your collection of jadeite (? sp.) will grow! I have to say, I am surprised a little tartan didn’t sneak in there. BTW, my mother–in-law has a zip up lunch bag with red/black tartan on it with three thermos sets inside she would be interested in selling… I can shoot you the picture, if you like! Thought of you when I saw she was putting it in her garage sale pile after the move from California this winter. She just bought a house here in Denton, Texas; she is just eight miles away.
Enjoy your beautiful centerpiece and I love the Pioneer Woman’s collection of tableware and cookware, too!
Springs hugs,
Barb 🙂

Thanks so much Barb! How fun that you thought of me when you saw your mother-in-laws thermos! I’d love to see a pic!

Thanks Stacy!

I love your pretty green vintage dishes as the focal points of your display with little spring touches added in. Like you, I am also a decor blogger who doesn’t own a tiered tray! I did start collecting Rae Dunn before I even knew it was a “Thing” after finding the sing and harmony cups for my classroom. Otherwise, I could do without mass produced decorations and would rather live with thrifted and unique decor just like yours!
Happy Spring!

If I ever bought any Rae Dunn it would be so I could display it like you do! It’s meant to be in your collections!! I adore how you style everything in your home!
Edmee says
Who would have thought? the rustic bark bunny is my favorite too. It was a nice display, love it.

Thank you so much!!
Carol@Blueskyathome says
Kristin, love all your details. The “jadite” has a pretty soft touch of spring and green. Adding terra cotta pots is always a great idea.

Thanks so much Carol! I love hopping with you!
