Draw on vintage Easter charm or craft a gorgeous bouquet using blooms from your garden. To inspire your next center‑of‑the–table design, we’re sharing our top floral arranging tips and spring decorating ideas—here’s how to elevate your table for the season.
1. Lilac Centerpiece
Purple blooms in harmony: stately alliums, fragrant lilacs, and elegant tulips, accented with foliage sprigs and yellow‑green hellebores to break up the purple palette.
2. Pastel Spring Centerpiece
Drawing inspiration from soft home decor styles: pale blue, mint, and blush plates complement a floral combination of bright pinks and greens for graphic contrast.
3. Fresh Spring Foliage
Bring the outdoors in: place white irises between ferns, ivy, sorrel, and columbine in a decorative basket. The cut flowers will last about a week, then replant or redistribute the live foliage.
4. Sunny Spring Centerpiece
Recreate spring meadows with daffodils in soft yellow and peach tones. Use a small vase with a concealed floral frog and vary the stem heights to illustrate silhouettes.
5. Beautiful Branches
A large arrangement anchors this table setting, reinforced by small vases of sprigs and pussy willow branches at each place setting, unifying the design.
6. Easter Floral Centerpiece
Add festive ambiance: fill a small vase with water and seasonal flowers, then scatter colored Easter eggs around the table in contrasting colors.
7. Flowering Branches
Branches such as redbud can be used for early flowering interest-just be sure to use a floral frog to support them in low planters. Balance their weight with more delicate flowers such as tulip magnolias and hellebores at the base.
8. Mixed Tulip Arrangement
Show diversity: use standard, double, and parrot tulips in assorted colors. Rest stems against a hidden stone bowl and flower frog for the floating bouquet look.
9. Neutral Spring Centerpiece
A white flower arrangement in a cream-colored vase creates understated elegance, which coordinates well with warm-hued wood table service.
10. Classic Daffodils
Simple and sunny: cut a mix of golden, cream, and apricot daffodils from the garden. Using buds rather than open flowers ensures maximum vase life.
11. Floral-Coordinated Decor
Match your floral centerpiece colors to tablecloths, plates, or glassware for a cohesive and festive seasonal table.
12. Purple Floral Arrangement
Cluster flowers together for natural impact. Even store-bought flowers clustered in tightly packed clumps can achieve garden-picked magic.
13. Easy Spring Tulips
Leave tulips alone or cut flowers short to cluster blooms. They continue to open in the vase—refresh water daily for freshness.
14. Rustic Spring Centerpiece
Green and white blooms like viburnum, French tulips, lisianthus, roses, and hosta leaves combine in easy sophistication.
15. Pink Roses Centerpiece
Set a scented pink rose-filled vase on a white ceramic vase, or distribute small vases with single flowers along the table for a light, unified effect.
16. Cool Hue Composition
Put purple hyacinth, grape fritillaria, plum tulips, columbine, and black pussy willow nest into a tin bowl. Darker centers mirror the willow’s dramatic hue.
17. Living Vase Design
Wrap pussy willow branches around a galvanized bucket with twine and fill with pink tulips and more willow—perfect with spring surroundings on a tray.
18. Dried Hydrangea Arrangement
Utilize dried hydrangeas, globe thistle, and oregano in a low-key arrangement; pin flowers with a hidden tape grid. Their muted colors suit spring pastels.
19. Farmhouse Spring Centerpiece
Rustic charm: use irregular glass jars in a wood crate, filled with garden flowers for an unstructured and welcoming spring look.
20. Daffodils and Tulips Combination
Yellow daffodils and orange parrot tulips stand out against neutral decor, balancing bold patterns and filling the space with spring cheer.
21. Easter Egg Vase
Put a glass within an oversized jar, inserting colored eggs between them and the jar. Fill the inner glass with flowers and water for a playful centerpiece.
22. Pussy Willow Display
Fill a large jug with several pussy willow varieties, with smaller containers containing accent stems for botanical interest and spring drama.
23. Chest of Irises
Put irises within a painted chest for an antique European look.
Create a floral arrangement in a cedar chest: line with plastic, tuck in potted budded irises and moss.
Fill with spikemoss and seasonal flowers
24. Gorgeous Pink Peonies
A pink peony-filled vase with sprigs of greenery is stunning. Replicate the look with a wide-bottom, narrow-top vase.
25. Dramatic Height Branches
Long stems like magnolia or cherry blossom create dramatic statements—but are not ideal for conversation area centerpieces. They’re perfect for sideboards or front door decorating.
