To make, you need:
Two packages of peeps {the ones that stand up}
Two packages of jelly beans {so many great ones to choose from}
A flower bundle. {I usually use one of two packages of Tulips for this}
A large round vase
A small round vase
To make, start by placing the small vase inside the larger one. While holding the small one in the center, add jelly jeans around the edges making sure none fall into the middle vase. Once they are evenly spread out around, its time to add the peeps. You can use one color of peeps, two, or three. Here, I just used yellow, but you could alternate to make a pattern if you'd like. Take the peeps and place them over the jelly beans around the entire vase.
Once your candy is all in place, you can add your water and flowers. Fill the small vase inside up about half to three quarters full. Trim your Tulips so they aren't too tall for the vase. Add tulips to vase and you are finished! It's so quick and easy anyone can do it! Also not expensive!
For the table I started off with using a printed piece of scrap booking paper for place mats. This is an easy, and inexpensive way to dress up your table. I then placed a simple white plate one top. I used fabric napkins, with egg shaped napkin rings to go on top of the plate. I placed the arrangement in the center of the table and TA DA! Table Complete!
Well almost, I also went the extra step to create a few tissue paper flowers to hang above the table. These are pretty easy to make. They do take a little practice, but once you get the hang of them they are easy. Martha Stewart has a great tutorial here.
I hope you got some inspiration for your Easter table this year! I'm not hosting this year, so I don't set it all up. But wherever I do go, the host will sure be getting a Easter flower arrangement!
