The Easter Table

It's Easter weekend and the kids have come home to spend some family time.  The weather was typical end of March in Michigan weather -- not really warm but thankfully it didn't snow.  The dining table looked like a breath of spring after a long, snowy winter.
Easter Dinner Menu
Ham
Roasted Asparagus
Butternut Squash Risotto
Mixed Greens Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing
Fresh Strawberry Meringue Cake
Mismatched place setting

The only thing I bought for the table was a new runner and fresh flowers.  The runner set the tone for the rest of the table and it looks great on the burlap table cloth.  I like a burlap base because it is a great neutral that you can dress up for a formal look with a funky twist - think of burlap as blue jeans for your table!
The mismatched silver plate flatware looks wonderful.  Go to my Etsy shop to see what flatware sets I have available to purchase for your table.
