Entertaining Inspiration : decorating your table with the colors of Spring

When I was a little girl, I loved Easter. Like, I looooooooved Easter. The Easter egg hunt was a highlight, naturally. What I most looked forward to however, was the Easter brunch. My grandmother was the absolute best when it came to setting a table. The woman was great at everything domestic honestly, but the Easter tables were always absolutely to die for.

My grandparents lived all over the world because my grandfather was in the Air Force so they had dishes and table accessories from every style you can imagine. My favorite was always the pink and green combo, she had those incredibly chic cabbage plates that always made me so so so happy! Our last name is Kaposta and it means “cabbage” in Hungarian so it was always a cute play on our family name. The cabbage plates have always been my favorite!

This year, as a mom now myself, I am really excited to begin my own collection of fun tableware to set an Easter brunch for my little family. I’ve been collecting dishes in pinks and greens, linen napkins and I am creating a set of napkin rings made from my own jewelry line (so beyond excited for this). I just ordered the book Palm Beach Chic, too because I absolutely adore the Palm Beach vibe and want to incorporate some inspiration into my jewelry as well as my Easter tablescape.

EASTER INSPIRED TABLE DECOR IDEAS

I just love the combination of pink and green. It’s probably my most favorite, aside from pink and lilac. Obviously the green cabbage plates are my favorite. Because of the Palm Beach table style staple, Tori Burch created a line of the lettuce/cabbage plates but you can also get them at Anthropologie, for a fraction of the price. I love the pink ones too! It literally just makes my heart so happy!

HOT TIP: Pink and green are the colors of the heart chakra. Surrounding yourself with the colors of the heart chakra, open it up and call in that energy. Think happiness, growth, nourishment, healing and love of course. Who wouldn’t want the energy of love at their Easter table?

My grandmother also had the most insane collection of floral china & teacups. I always loved the look of layering different pieces together for an eclectic look. I am currently on the hunt for floral tablecloths to place on my table, they always serve as the most perfect backdrop for any tabletop.

I pulled these images from searching Love Shack Fancy on Pinterest. You’ll have to check them out, I am dying to visit their store in Dallas. Take a look at these few that are my favorites. Let me know which is your favorite in the comments, I’d love to hear!

Currently Craving: Sands Hotel and Spa designed by Martin Lawerence Bullard

One of my absolute favorite ways to get inspiration for my jewelry designs, is through travel. In fact, traveling has always given me inspiration in my life. I will never forget the moment when I knew I was meant to be an interior designer. It was at an impromptu weekend getaway at a boutique hotel. The hotel was designed so fabulously and I could not get enough. Interiors and design has always been something that feeds my soul and spirit.

These days, we spend so much time on social media and I can’t help but travel vicariously. It is one of my favorite things to do on instagram, I spend a mental vacation by stalking gorgeous hotels, boutiques and restaurants around the globe. I especially love places like these pink showstoppers.

Case in point, my latest obsession Sands Hotel Spa in Indian Wells, California. A hip little town just outside of Palm Springs. When I first laid eyes on the hotel, I immediately thought of Khloe Kardashian’s home designed by Martin Lawerence Bullard. So, it came as no surprise to learn that MLB designed this hotel too. It’s very bohemian, exotic glam which is one of my favorite looks and I in love with all of the eye candy found on their instagram snaps.

This room is probably my favorite. I love the pops of soft pink against, marble, mirrored tile backsplash wall above a sitting area. The detailed ceiling wallpaper in a very Moroccan inspired pattern. I also love the black and silver Moroccan poufs, they make a perfect foot stool and gorgeous decorative accents.

I have to say, I’ve never been too big on dramatic, patterned tile but I love this black and white nook here. On my recent trip to Isla Mujeres, Mexico, I fell in love with this modern floral style pattern of tile. Tile is a great way to accent an outdoor wall. It gives it a little something extra.

Here is a peek inside of the restaurant, The Pink Cabana. Love the name, right? I also love the wallpaper. It’s a spin on the popular Martinique Wallpaper, like in the Beverly Hills Hotel, just a lighter vibe with a pale green and white color. It really accents the pink ceiling so well in addition to the pink pleated banquette for seating. I just love it.
