Aqua Bunnies Easter Table


My cutest bunny dishes,
these bunnies sitting atop
a woven basket,
are the star of this
Easter Table.

I bought these a few years
ago in aqua and pink and
they are just so adorable.


They are the perfect for
this aqua Easter Table
set on a pretty aqua 
rosette table topper.


Aqua and white dishes create the
stack and I brought out
the sterling silver to go 
with this elegant table.



The sterling is 
Old Maryland Engraved,
which I received from my parents
when we married,
although I chose to not have it
engraved.  I love the mirror like
surface where the engraving would
have gone.

These fun aqua polka dot chargers
begin the plate stack.


I followed those up with these
beautiful textured white plates
with a spring flower on their border.


These fun aqua and white napkins
will be placed next on the stack.
It is fun to use variety in your
napkin placement.


Finally, another textured white plate
and our aqua bunny finishes off the
stack.  The bunny looks a little
bluer in this photo because he is
filled with Dove Chocolates - Yum.


Textured white or cream plates are my
most versatile plates and can be paired
with almost anything.


A stemmed aqua glass bowl
forms the basis of the centerpiece
and it is filled with mercury glass eggs.


A few more Dove eggs spill out
onto the table topper.



I have plain mercury glass eggs 
and diamond studded ones.  These
were new this year from 
Home Goods.


Two Easter baskets are also
featured in the center of the
table.  One is headed off to our
missionary son in Seoul, Korea
and the other is going to my wonderful
neighbors who are 90 and 95!


I asked our dear neighbor who is 95
the secret to his long life and good 
health and he told me it was
1.  Chocolate Covered Almonds
2.  Chocolate Covered Raisins
3.  M&M's
so their basket is filled with chocolate.

He is a man after my own heart!!


Mercury glass is another one of my
go-to basics!  I just love the sparkle,
shine and elegance it adds to a table.


Here is a shot from the back side of
the centerpiece.  I elevated one on a
small glass cake pedestal.


I brought out another set of
aqua goblets, different from the
ones I used last week.


They were paired with my
favorite clear bubble goblets.


I think these bunnies are sooooo sweet!
They get to stay out all month.


I am so glad you stopped by to see
my Aqua Bunnies Easter Table.

I am glad that Easter is a little
later in the month this year so 
I can play with more Easter dishes.

  7. The aqua bunnies dishes are so pretty. They look lovely with your white plate and the polka dot charger. Great find on these wonderful items. Home Goods is so fun to shop. The topper is gorgeous and brings so much elegance to your table. I know your son and neighbors will adore the chocolate baskets.

  11. What an unique and gorgeous table setting! I just wanted to give you a heads up, however, that I couldn't read the text. My old eyes? My computer? But maybe the color of the test. Popped over here from BNOTP.

  12. Your aqua rose-laden covered tablecloth is giving everything a nice hint of the colour.
    I purchased one pink rabbit covered dish similar to yours which has Easter coloured jelly beans in it for the grands.

  15. Old Maryland is such a classically beautiful pattern. I've always read that non monogrammed silver ends up being more valuable than monogrammed silver. I think that you made a good choice. The table is absolutely wonderful...delightful! It's hard to go wrong with aqua...such a magical ethereal color. Thanks for inviting us for a peek. Cherry Kay

  19. Very pretty colors Jacqueline! I am a big fan of aqua, and we painted our side door Blue Spa (aqua). The rose table topper and those sweet bunny dishes are fantastic! Great job on the Easter baskets too.

  20. No one would ever be able to guess that you like aqua!!! :-) What a beautiful color for Spring! You were so smart for getting those bunny dishes in both aqua and pink. They can be mixed or used as a single color...just fabulous!!!

    Mercury glass eggs...who would have thought? They're beautiful!

    You are a DOLL for creating that special Easter basket for your neighbors!!! The fact that you took the time to pay attention and really listen...that's an admirable quality. So many people just dismiss older people. When someone takes the time to really listen and respond, that puts that person at the top of my Love You List!!!!

    I know your son will enjoy his basket, too. They're never too old for an Easter basket...as proven by your neighbors! :-)

    Have a wonderful weekend!
