Here’s our simple three step guide to creating a showstopping hanging branch for the ultimate Easter table decoration this spring.

What You'll Need:

A sturdy branch
An Easter Garland
A string of Micro Fairy Lights
Hanging Easter Decorations
Ribbon
Florist wire
Self adhesive hooks

Step One

Start by taking the branch and wrapping it with your Easter garland, fixing into place using florist wire. Entwine both in micro lights, this will not only give your décor a glow, but it’ll also to make sure your masterpiece is held together securely! Once tied together, tease out the foliage to give your branch a natural looking finish.

Step Two

Choose hanging ornaments to dress your branch, we love Easter eggs, rabbits or chicks! Opt for pastel colours for a classic seasonal look or go for playful & whimsical motifs that the whole family will enjoy. To attach, simply loop ribbon through each hook and tie onto the branch with a bow.

Step Three

Finally, position the branch over your table, making sure its at the right height so you and your guests can sit comfortably underneath. Fix adhesive hooks to your celing, to attach your branch to. For a floating effect, use fishing wire to suspend your branch, or make a statement with an oversized velvet ribbon to hold up your display. Whichever style you go for, secure the wire or ribbon at either end of the branch and suspend your centrepiece to give your Easter table a fabulous focal point!

Table Top Touches

Compliment your DIY decoration by matching to your table! Dress place settings with LED candles in a mixture of pastel colours and sizes, and create a simple but effective dining table centrepieceby running an Easter garland down the middle.

Finish With A Flourish

Complete your Easter setup by adding statement finishing touches to your space. Adorn walls and doors with Easter wreaths to set the scene for reconnecting with loved ones this Easter. Entwine seasonal foliage with micro lights for a subtle glow that’ll make your décor look just as good at night as it does during the day!
