Easter Tree in a Breakfast Room Easter Tablescape
I know that you are familiar with Christmas trees. But, are you familiar with an Easter tree? We have had one for years. It’s decorated with lights and Easter eggs. For the first time, I’m using the Easter tree in a breakfast room Easter tablescape.
I actually composed most of this breakfast room Easter tablescape almost a month ago when I was decorating our kitchen and breakfast room for Easter. I just kept it a little secret. I planned to share it, but then two Easter wreaths and an Easter mantel and dining room Easter tablescapes butted in line.
Now is the perfect time to share the breakfast room Easter tree tablescape.
Beside the Easter tree, I had another couple of reasons to create a breakfast room Easter tablescape, which I’ll show you in a minute.

I love to see the “from-beginning-to-end” process of just about everything. I feel like it is a learning process. So let’s get started.
Creating this breakfast room Easter tree tablescape was relatively quick since I had my vision and my inspiration pieces ready to go.
Prepping the Easter Tablecloth
Our breakfast room table is round, and, to be honest, Sweet Shark and I rarely eat at it. But I love to have it looking pretty for special occasions.
The first thing I did was cover it with a white tablecloth. Then I used this pink and white buffalo check fabric which was my first inspiration. I ordered it from Spoonflower, but had not used it. Now was a perfect time. I didn’t hem it, just ironed it well.
The Easter Tree Centerpiece
My second and main inspiration is this white branch tree that we have had for years. I don’t even remember where I bought it.
At one time, I had a plug-in string of lights made of little Easter eggs. The plug-in required the Easter tree to be on a table against a wall, so I couldn’t use it as a centerpiece. After several years, several of the little Easter lights broke. After Easter a few years ago, I just threw it away.
After Christmas, I bought 2 extra strands of battery-operated lights just for this Easter tree.
First, I wrapped them around the tree.
Then I placed the tree in a favorite pink and white pitcher from HomeGoods and stuffed tissue paper around to secure it.
Here you can see the battery packs.
I stuffed them under a piece of pink tissue.
Next, I hung a couple of dozen Easter eggs on it.
To finish the centerpiece, I placed some pastel crinkle-cut shred around the base of the Easter tree. I’ll show you the complete tree later.
Setting the Breakfast Room Easter Table
For placemats, I used bright green woven ones from Pie 1 that I’ve had for a long time. I have two of each green color. Here are other options for round woven placemats in multiple colors.
Here is my third inspiration element. In February at an estate sale, I hit the jackpot with this set of lunch plates and cups. Do you recognize the pattern?
I did immediately. It’s a classic Laura Ashley pattern from years ago. When my older daughter had her first big girl bedroom, I fabric-backed her walls with this pattern and bought the sheets and comforter.
I haven’t seen it in years, but I knew I had to have the set.
In addition to the four plates and cups were four egg cups. The entire set was under $20. I absolutely love it and knew in February that I would use it for Easter.
Around the base of the centerpiece, I used the 4 bunny acrobats that belonged to my son when he was a little boy. He said years ago that I could keep them. Typical grown-up boy man.
For napkins, I used the green and white gingham ones that I made for last year’s spring tablescape. Since this would be a casual Easter tablescape, I thought pink plastic forks and spoons would do just fine.
One more special addition was the floral decoupage Easter eggs I made. I’ve been dying to try my hand at this project since I saw my friend Yvonne at Stone Gable make them.
For glassware, I added the pretty pink glasses that I found at an antique mall a few years ago. I think they are the sweetest glasses.
Here is another Easter tree I made with decoupage bunnies and painted carrots.
Easter Goodies to Eat
You can’t have an Easter table without Easter candy.
How about some cranberry and orange scones? Fresh strawberries and blueberries? This would be a light breakfast.
Another pink sherbet glass holds yogurt to pair with the fresh fruit.
For an Easter toast, a little glass of prosecco would be perfect. We need a little bubbly at this time of our lives.
And now, let me show you the entire table with our Easter tree. The eggs are from several places and have been collected over the years.
At night, the timer I set brings the Easter tree to life.
I am so ready for springtime and Easter. I am feeling the beauty of spring and the power of Easter more than ever this year. I feel blessed to be healthy, to be at home with Sweet Shark, and to know that our kids and grandkids are healthy.
Thank you for PINNING this Easter tree tablescape and sharing. I hope it inspires you. Here you can find more awesome ideas on my Pinterest Easter Decorating Ideas Board.
Have a wonderful week.
Carol,
I’m so glad you were able to get your Easter table with all its wonderful pieces in your post line-up. The egg tree is perfect for your table. Seeing your table sitting in front of the windows with green grass and trees in the background reminds me of my breakfast table area. Don’t you just love being able to see your yard from your table!
I liked the tree in the repurposed pitcher and especially like how you used a mix of colors for your grass at the base of the tree.
Happy Spring!

I am happy to feature your post this week at SYS #252. <3 And yes, I am happy that everyone is healthy in our family so far ~ in California, South Dakota, Connecticut (my youngest brother is delivering medicine for pharmacies to elderly patients, much needed!), Maine, Massachusetts, Texas (us and our daughter), and S. Carolina. Much to be grateful for this Easter time!!!
Blessings to you,
Barb 🙂
Thank you so much, Barb. I’m so excited. GlD to hear that all your family is well. Stay safe up there in Denton (that’s where I went to college.)
Your table is absolutely lovely, Carol. Lucky you to find the Laura Ashley dishes. Happy Easter and thank you for sharing at Party In Your PJ’s!
I love your Easter tree centerpiece, it’s adorable and all the pastel eggs hanging there !
The lunch plates and cups are gorgeous, you did hit the Jackpot when you found them.
Have a happy Easter and keep safe.
I’m pinning.

Carol, the dishes are perfect! What an awesome find. Scones and strawberries sound good to me any time. Love the acrobatic bunnies and the tree is perfect in your sweet striped pitcher!! Happy Easter!
hugs,
Jann
What a great display, Carol! And I love your rose luncheon set – what a find! It appeals to my inner #dishwareaddict !
Carol, I love everything about this bright, cheerful Easter table — the egg tree centerpiece, the pink check fabric, color scheme, etc. But, the vintage stemware made me swoon! So clever how you often use fabric pieces to layer on your tabletop. Bee healthy and have a most Happy Easter,
Carol I love your Easter tree and tablescape, especially the varying shades of green with pink! Your decoupaged eggs are beautiful. I am making some more tomorrow!
I also just love the garden views outside your window. Please do enjoy those scrumptious treats and lovely views by treating yourself to a special “staying home” quiet celebration of spring.
Thanks so much for joining the hop. Happy spring!
I love this Carol!! The ginghams are so happy and fun! The snack trays are wonderful! I just love it!!!!
I love your Easter tablescape!!! The Easter tree as a centerpiece is so clever! Love the pink and green color palette too!
I’m in love with your Easter tablescape and your Easter tree centerpiece! Everything is so beautifully put together with the pink and green and those lovely dishes. I also love all the little bunnies. Now if only we could all gather for Easter, I’d be right over for your delicious scones! Wishing you a safe and blessed Easter, my sweet friend.
love, love, love this. How fun and such a creative idea.
I LOVE your table, Carol! The egg tree is so sweet with the textured eggs, and I love the little rosebuds (or are those tulips?) on your dishes! Always love your tables, as they are done so tastefully! Pinned!
What a gorgeous table you set in your breakfast room, Carol! I love your Easter egg tree and it reminds me of one that my grandmother displayed every year decorated with eggs that she decorated by decoupaging pictures cut from cards on the outside and also with eggs where she cut a window in one side and created a scene inside. I recognized that Laura Ashley pattern. The dishes and egg cups that you scored were a great estate sale find. I’m glad that you show the step-by-step way that you do things. It helps tell the story and it helps the reader realize that they too can create a beautifully decorated table.
I love your pink and green color scheme…it’s perfect for Easter. Also, that Easter tree is just the cutest. I hope you have a wonderful Easter!
Carol, your Easter Egg Tree is just adorable and I love the pink and green together. Such a pretty table.

Pink and green PLUS gingham! This tablescape gives me all the heart smiles.
This is adorable. I loved reading about how and where you got all the elements for this darling table. I so agree with you. I have spent a lot of time contemplating our current circumstance and being grateful for our health and trust the future to Him. I’m glad to see that you all are safe.
Carol, your little tree is so sweet, but the luncheon sets really have me swooning! Those are just adorable and a great find! I love how you have used them with strawberries and biscuits! I hope you and sweet shark are staying home and healthy! May you find some joy in this Easter season! God bless, Chloe
Love your delightful table Carol and your egg tree is fantastic! I’m studying everything on your table and keep going back to those pretty dishes. My daughter had a big girl Laura Ashley room too. This really makes me smile! Bring on the bubbly!
I really DO need to get out my Easter Egg tree, I just have no idea where to put it! I love how it looks on your table, in the pitcher. So cheery and happy. We need cheery and happy these days. Alas, we’ll be in solitary on Easter although I think Rick will join me for dinner. We’ll have to be creative this year but at least the house is cute! I’m absolutely certain yours is!
Carol, this has to be my favorite of all your tablescapes. Probably because I love Easter and pink but your estate sale find and egg tree are over-the-top fabulous! I will definitely start collecting some eggs so I can make a tree and I bet when you son sees how adorable your table is, he might want those fun bunnies back! Everything is perfectly spring and so beautiful. Aaaahhhh! I love it. Would never want to leave. Well maybe for some a refill of scones. Happy Easter Friend!
Oh my word, Carol, this is so cute! i love how festive your breakfast nook is both day and night now. I’ve never tried to create an Easter tree before but this definitely makes me want to try. Love this so much, sweet friend! Hope you and your family have a blessed and happy Easter season, CoCo
What a charming, happy tablescape! Who wouldn’t feel special dining at your table? Happy Easter!
Carol, I love your Easter tree centerpiece. When my grandson lived in town, we used to decorate a Resurrection tree in my garden every year. Lovely table! Happy & healthy Easter!
Carol, I always love coming over and seeing what you have been up too. Your table is sooooo pretty. I love everything about it. Your dishes are so pretty and perfect for the season. Love the egg tree and all the table linens you placed on the table. Very pretty Carol! Happy Easter my firend.
Carol, this is FABulous! I wasn’t aware of this breakfast area, even through all the tablescaping you’ve done. The tree is fantastic, the dishes you found are sweet as can be, and your complete process of how you were inspired and executed the vision outstanding. I absolutely adore your creative process. Happy Easter!
