When you’re using this guide, remember to get inspired by the projects. Use ideas from several tablescapes and incorporate them into your own style. I’ve included Easter ideas for adults as well as some for kids since the holiday is usually a family affair.
Menu Ideas

Mix and match recipes as you like, or forward one or more to your guests so that they can bring it to the meal. I fully support the potluck party style! I grew up in a large family of 13 aunts and uncles so no one person ever cooked all the things.
