Celebrating Easter is synonymous with bringing the whole family together to create new memories around a hearty table. This date takes on an even more special meaning when we also dress our house with Easter decorations to welcome the ones we love in a meeting full of affection.

If you want to invest in an Easter decoration, but don't know where to start, you've come to the right place. Check out our tips and suggestions below for you to go beyond the set table and make this date even more special!

Live sweet moments around the table

The Easter table is one of the most anticipated of the date, whether at a reception full of friends and family or just an intimate moment with the residents of the house. Therefore, when thinking about how to compose this scenario, remember to invest in pieces that will make the moment even more enjoyable.

Prefer crockery and other items in lighter tones. Start by positioning the towel that will serve as a base for assembling the rest. If you prefer, you can replace it with sousplats or American games too. Fabric napkins should preferably match the chosen color of the other textiles.

Then add all the products you'll be using—plates, cutlery, glasses, and special bowls for the occasion. Have them all in the right places and, finally, position the items that will be used to serve the meals. A tip is to place them in a “zigzag” for a more laid-back and, at the same time, harmonic table.

You can also use a trimmer as a support at this time. There, you can leave the drinks, the bowls or specific glasses, as well as the main dishes or even the desserts and their respective dishes. Add flowers or other decorative objects to this piece of furniture.

Decorate every room in the house

Why not decorate every room in your home? Take the opportunity to renew your bedding sets, add small sculptures to the coffee table, the side table in the bedroom and also the sofa with pillow covers.

If you don't want to invest in many prints of rabbits for Easter decor, opt for a color palette that matches the occasion and invest. Lighter colors or candy colors are perfect! In this way, your home will be harmoniously decorated and within the proposal.

Another tip is to bet on an Easter decoration for the garden . Take the opportunity to take lunch outside. Use lots of white elements, autumn flowers and other props to create a composition that fully integrates this space.

The delicacy present in the details of the Easter decoration

In addition to the table set and the living room, for example, it is very important that you think about the items that will make up the Easter decor in the other rooms in the house.

You can, for example, invest in small Easter decorations for the children's room or even the bathroom. In this environment, the embroidered tablecloths with a soft and delicate texture are perfect to be used for Easter Sunday lunch and leave all the guests enchanted.

Remember that these small decor details can be spread around your home as a way to play with the children who will be present. An Easter egg decoration , for example, can become a delicious egg hunt game!

Decoration for an Easter party

If you are thinking of putting together an Easter-themed party for the children, take the opportunity to fill the room with balloons, felt rabbits or other objects to completely decorate the place.

You can make a completely thematic table, with sweets and cakes in the shape of eggs and rabbits, for example. When decorating an Easter bunny party , take the opportunity to invest in fun games as well.

Among them is the best known egg hunt, but you can also include more playful options, such as drawings to paint and color the eggs and the bunny. The most important thing here is to entertain the kids!

1. Escape the traditional tree

The tree all decorated is the great symbol of Christmas, there is no doubt. But running away from traditional models, creating other styles, can be the big difference in a personalized Christmas. A great idea to have a tree with presence, even if you live in a small house, is to create your own Christmas tree on the living room wall.

To do this, just assemble the silhouette of the pine using a string, dry branches or whatever your imagination allows. Afterwards, decorate with some Christmas objects — balls, pine cones and gifts — and photos of family and friends, not forgetting the twinkle lights to give the final touch.

However, if you want to have the traditional Christmas tree, it is possible to innovate in the decoration with other ornaments, such as transparent and colored balls, mini reindeer and pine trees, simple and elaborate bows, stars of different colors and snowflakes. A personal touch can make your tree even more special, with ornaments made by you. Choose special papers and make folds and cutouts with a Christmas theme, or whatever you prefer.

Another cool idea to decorate small spaces is to bet on smaller trees spread around the house, supported by tables and even suspended. If you already have plants in your house, try decorating them with some ornaments and lots of lights. This is a practical and beautiful way to have a special decoration in every corner of your home!

2. Create original ornaments

In addition to the Christmas tree, an excellent tip to bring the magical atmosphere to your home is to create different and original ornaments for all environments. Bet on the details to make every corner shine, making your Christmas more beautiful and personalized.

For example, place a string of twinkle lights inside an iron lamp, wine bottle or clear pot to create a different and sophisticated effect in your living room. Plus, you can finish it off with a red or gold ribbon bow on the outside, to strengthen the Christmas mood.

Another tip is to personalize the gifts under the tree with paper and colored ribbons, incorporating the wrappings into the decor. You can also place small photos of the recipients on each one, as a creative way to identify each memory and also intensify the bond between you, your family and friends.

A simple and original idea is to decorate white cups and make a different arrangement that completes your home decor. You can paint them red, make a Christmas pattern, or just fill them with colorful polka dots, pine branches, and   twinkle lights .

Finally, another way to create original decorations is using washi tape. Currently, they have gained a lot of prominence in minimalist decorations with a Scandinavian touch. To put them in the Christmas mood, make Christmas designs – such as pine trees, snowflakes, reindeer, gifts and whatever your imagination allows – on paper or directly on the wall.

3. Bet on different garlands

Symbolically, wreaths bring luck and abundance for the coming year. In the decoration, they leave the environment with the atmosphere of Christmas, presenting several models for the most varied  decorative styles .

4. Choose your color palette

To create a beautiful and harmonious Christmas decoration, choose the colors you are going to use. It could be the traditional green, red and gold, which already carry all the glamor of the Christmas spirit. But, if you want to innovate, you can stick with less traditional colors, like blue and silver, for example.

Use the colors you've chosen on the tree, the decorations, and even the gifts. If the idea is to do everything at home, buy paper and spray paint with the colors of the palette, to ensure that the decor makes your home shine in harmony.

5. Use decorative candles

Just as candles can be used in other environments in the house, they are also very welcome at the supper table, and can help compose that special lighting. A very beautiful and practical idea is to turn wine glasses upside down, placing the Christmas baubles inside and finishing with the candle on top.

Also, how about using a glass vase and decorating it with small branches of rosemary or pine? Place the sprigs outside, without covering the entire container, and position the candle inside. With this, you can create combinations with vases of different shapes and sizes, to ensure a more creative and personalized Christmas decoration.

To make the table even more lively and lively, use colored candles or decorated candlesticks. Just be careful to make sure the spark plugs are securely fastened and in a secure position where no one can bump into them. Also avoid scented candles, especially on the table, as they will compete with the delicious aroma of Christmas dinner.

6. Bet on table coverings

The Christmas table is a very important part of your decoration, as it is the central focus of the night. Therefore, all details must be carefully thought out, from the tablecloth to the napkin.

If you like a more refined style, bet on white tablecloths with gold accents. In this way, the white cloth will allow you to be more daring in choosing the dishes and cutlery, while the gold one will bring more  sophistication  and can be combined with the table decorations.

Now, for a more intimate and laid-back dinner, bet on the colorful placemats decorated with a Christmas theme. To finish, make a small arrangement in the center with red roses and decorative candles, leaving the atmosphere very warm and cozy.

7. Arrange the dishes

Currently, there are several options on the market for tableware and napkins developed especially for Christmas, with different details and colors of the season. So, to make your supper even more beautiful, bet on these decorative elements,  combining their colors  and prints.

To organize them easily and elegantly, try to leave them separated at a comfortable distance, placing the napkin on top of the plate and the glasses always above and to the right, with the fork on the left and the knife on the right. Also, to bring more sophistication to dinner, place hot dishes on platters and trays, avoiding the use of pans.
