How to Dress Your Table for Spring
May 13, 2015 · oldbarnstar · 2 min read
Warm weather, BBQs, family and friends…this is what we’ve been waiting for all winter long! Even with all the warm-weathered events, the table is where everyone gathers around to break bread and make memories. That is why your table is always where you can “set the space” for any outdoor or indoor gathering. Here’s how to dress your reclaimed barnwood table for spring this year!
Seasonal Table Setting Ideas
Here are a few of our favorite decorating ideas for this time of the year. Pop of Flowers: When it comes to springtime decorating we like to think, “April Showers bring May Flowers!” Fresh flowers tend to make the perfect accent to any piece of furniture however we love the look of the bright flowers against the traditional wood in your dining space. Determine your accent colors of the room – do you have pops of color such as orange, red or yellow? Grab a bouquet of your room’s accent colors for display on your table. Depending on how your food will be served and how large your table is, pick a floral centerpiece that fills the space comfortable without obstructing anyone’s view.

Seasonal Accents: If you feel that the flowers seem too small for your table and event, add some seasonal accents. Add a mirror or tray underneath your flowers and include some theme accents such as candles, decorative stones, or confetti. We also love the look of smaller plants in mason jars alongside tea lights for a lovely rustic look!

Fresh Fruit Arrangements: Get creative by slicing up some oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruits; then add them to your favorite decorative pillar. The scent of fresh citrus is also a great (and safe) alternative to lighting a candle.
