Easter Tablescape... Not your traditional colors...

Do you think of pink and black for Easter?  I saw the plates on Ebay and thought how beautiful and different.  Then I went to Home Goods and low and behold, they were there!  The price was right.   So I bought them.  Immediately my mind started buzzing with thoughts on how to do an Easter tablescape.
I love comments.  Please feel free to leave a comment below.  Thank you.
 The bunny plates are transferware and made in England.  They really have a British look to them.  The white charger plates that lots of Blogger's have are from Pier 1 as well as the placemats.  







I used a pink goblet and a block bubble glass for each place-setting.

I love the bottle-brush black and white bunnies.  I found them, well before I even had the idea of this tablescape and well before I purchased the plates.  












The little black basket came from Pottery Barn years ago.  Part of their Easter line.  I have put in a black chalk paint egg as a placecard with a black metal bunny and a cute little lollipop sucker.


The egg hiding in front of the bunny is a pink Mercury glass egg with lots of jeweled bling.  From Home Goods.











I have used a triple napkin of black, white, and pink with an ivory colored Dahlia napkin ring.



We love to celebrate with party crackers.  Filled with a prize, paper crown, and a joke or riddle.  Pink paper with an adorable bunny.

 Please feel free to leave a comment.  They make my day!   Thank you for looking.

 I will be sharing this at Between Naps on the Porch, Tablescape Thursday.

    What a great Easter table, Valerie...those plates are just so pretty. I never thought of using that color combination for Easter, but it works beautifully. I may have to check the HG out next time I am in the city.
    I just posted an Easter table, am going to try to fit in 2 more, before this year's early Easter, with any luck!

    It's different, and I appreciate items that take a turn from the ordinary. The plates are whimsical yer elegant at the same time.

    Thanks for stopping by and commenting Valerie (that's my sister's name).

    I LOVE the pink and black for Easter - just perfect. These dishes are lovely and I have never seen anything like them before!! And I have also never seen Easter crackers….we use them at Christmas and they certainly leave behind quite a mess but they are always fun!

    Well that's a fun look! I was drawn to the black and white bunnies this year but didn't get any. What a great pick up they made with the dishes! I saw some other bunny plates at TJ's yesterday but since I just got gifted some I refrained from buying them- can be hard to do at times!

    Hi Valerie, I love your use of colors together that are not traditionally used at Easter. It is so much more interesting since when I see "Easter", I automatically think of purely pastel colors. I love the elegant bunny plates, pink and black glasses. It really stands out as truly unique with a twist of vintage. Great work, Valerie!
