Last year, my Mother and Franklyn were visiting for Easter making it an ideal time to host an Easter Brunch at my apartment. I spent time perfecting the menu and the table decoration! My favorite colors are pink and orange, these bold colors are present throughout my apartment so it made for a great complementary background. Along with my custom-made floral tablecloth, I found orange and pink tablecloths and napkins to match.
My usual red and white dinnerware didn’t match the decor so I found these plates at Target that were perfect!

I saw this bow napkin and just HAD to have it as part of the table decor. When I tell you, I played with these napkins for so long trying to perfect this bow but alas, the napkins were a little too soft and I couldn’t get the bow exactly how I wanted it.

A perfect bow on each plate is a fun way to spiff up a plain-Jane napkin. Spread a dinner napkin out, lying flat. Fold opposite sides in so they meet at the center. Then fold again at the center to form a narrow, ribbonlike shape. Next, fold short ends in so they meet at the center. Cinch in the middle with a ribbon in a coordinating color, and glue at back.

The napkin change actually worked out because I bought little silver buckets and filled them with Easter treats for everyone. I ended up wrapping the little buckets with the napkins and tying a bow to close it and put them on each plate. My vintage orange and purple glassware combined with spring flowers completed the look splendidly.


Overall, it was a great day spent celebrating with family and friends. xoxo-Kellie
