Easter is the perfect time to refresh your dining room and create a festive atmosphere for family gatherings and meals. Spring is the season of renewal, so incorporating spring colours, fresh blooms, and cheerful decorations can instantly transform your dining room. Whether you have neutral tones, bold hues, or something in between, the key is to choose table decorations that either complement or contrast the wall colour to enhance the overall aesthetic. Consider creating harmony with your tablescape by matching the table decorations to your wall colour. This colour sets the tone for your room and provides the backdrop for the table. This beautiful dining room is painted in Invisible Green and is the perfect colour to choose as the focus for decorative elements. Invisible Green dining room.

Add elements in other colours to contrast and create an eye catching finish. Alice Leigh has created this beautiful dining room painted in Royal Grass Green, a versatile colour with blue and yellow undertones. She has chosen to have green accents on her tablecloth and lamps, but has introduced contrasting blue in the glassware, table cloth and flowers. Royal Grass Green Dining Room by Alice Leigh Easter is synonymous with blooming flowers. A fresh floral centrepiece will brighten your table and bring nature indoors. Think tulips, daffodils and blossoming branches, any flowers that bloom in the Spring. You can create one large arrangement or have many vases dotted the length of the table filled with Spring flowers.
