Bright colors and decorations

 

Tear off a branch with leaves, decorate it with paper or decorative wooden eggs, put it in a vase in the middle of the table. A tablecloth with a bright pattern and children's figurines of chickens, cockerels, hares will also find their place. In this case, it is better to use neutral dishes - white, for example.

Cookies decorated with icing

 

Shortbread cookies or gingerbread cookies can be painted with colored protein icing and sprinkled with confectionery sprinkles, mini marshmallows, candied fruits and raisins. Such an activity will be great entertainment for guests during the celebration of Easter with children. And pre-painted gingerbread cookies can be strung on a rope and decorate the house for the holiday.

Easy 3 Ingredient Cookie Recipe

100 g of powdered sugar; 200 g butter at room temperature; 300 g flour.

Beat the butter with powder with a mixer, add the sifted flour, roll the dough into a ball and wrap with cling film. Let the dough chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

Then pinch off part of the dough, roll it out (thickness 1 cm) and cut out the cookies with a punch or a glass. Prick with a fork. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 15 minutes at 200 degrees.

For the glaze, beat two egg whites with 400 g of powdered sugar. Add a couple of drops of food coloring, if desired, and apply the frosting with a brush. Decorate cookies with poppy seeds, candied fruit, colored confectionery sprinkles.

Vases with eggs

 

You can put colored eggs in glass vases and vases and put them on the table. Beautiful and comfortable! Eggs can be both decorative and boiled chicken. The combination of quail and chicken eggs looks beautiful.

Disposable candy cups

 

Candies in the form of chocolate eggs or dragees can be folded into disposable cups, which can be easily turned into hares with the help of paper decorations. 

Cut out the ears and muzzle from paper, paint, small buttons can serve as eyes. It remains only to glue the parts and wait until it dries. Such a cute cup with sweets will be a great gift-compliment for little guests.

Eggshell instead of a vase

 

Before the holiday, you will probably cook dishes with eggs. Try to break the shell just above the middle, pour out the egg, and rinse and dry the shell itself. You will get an excellent mini vase for crocuses, violets, and other small flowers. This is a great Easter themed table decoration!

Favorite color

 

You can decorate the house and the festive Easter table in one or two colors. For example, in pink. We paint eggs in pink, choose roses in the same color, we also choose pink decorations from paper or napkins. In this case, dishes, tablecloths should be chosen in a neutral color - white or light gray. 

Sprouted seeds and grass

 

You can grow grass or seeds in an eggshell or on a saucer. To do this, put a few cotton pads on the bottom, moisten them with plenty of water (one or two tablespoons per disk) and pour seeds to choose from: watercress, beets, mung bean, wheat, rye, lentils, unroasted seeds. In 24 hours you will already have the first crop, but to be sure, plant the grass 2-3 days before Easter.

Such a living decoration will not only decorate the table, but also serve as a pleasant addition to sandwiches, meat dishes, salads.

Bright napkins and paper decorations

 

You can make your own napkin or cutlery rings out of themed paper. You can simply cut out eggs, chickens, hares from old magazines or postcards and stick them to a tape or ring made of thick paper.

Place a bright napkin under the plates on a white tablecloth, place cutlery with a ring and / or decoration on the plate. Such a trifle will please the eye and will surely bring a smile.

Eggs are everywhere

 

Put colored chicken and quail eggs in baskets, vases and egg trays. This is the best decoration (treat) for Easter!

You can dye eggs with artificial or natural dyes. We tell you how to dye eggs with natural dyes and what color we get using vegetables, herbs and spices.

Eggs in onion skins are dyed raw. To do this, they are wrapped in husks, tightly folded into a stocking and placed in a saucepan. Pour in water and boil until tender, then leave in water until almost cool.

In the case of other natural dyes (turmeric, beets or spinach), the eggs are boiled first. From 2-4 glasses of water, two tablespoons of 9% vinegar and dye, a decoction is prepared - brought to a boil and boiled for several minutes. Then boiled eggs are dipped into it. These are the colors we get using natural dyes: spinach - bright yellow, pale green; saffron - yellow; beets - pink or burgundy; turmeric - orange-brown; red cabbage - blue, pale blue; coffee is dark brown.

Natural flowers

 

Place a flowering branch or flower in vases, interesting bottles and other glass containers. Let there be many such containers. You will get a real fragrant garden. Vases can take center stage on a festive table or decorate a sweet table.

By the way, if the flowers are broken or faded, you can cut off the heads and put them in a small round aquarium or a glass filled with water. The beauty!

Funny compositions from napkins

 

On a painted egg, you can draw a muzzle, and wrap the egg itself with a napkin twisted into a tourniquet. Tie the ends with a string or ribbon and the Easter Bunny is ready!

Happy Easter!
