Consider how the centrepieces will look on the table, as they should not obstruct anything on the table. Choose good, seasonally appropriate and well-placed centrepieces for your dining room table setting. Spring centrepieces mean lighter and brighter colours, and your centrepieces should reflect that.
Centrepieces to go for
Spring calls for floral prints, coloured glass, and fresh flowers. Always keep things light, airy and less cluttered.
Use small vases
Use small vases in multiples, filled with fresh blooms of flowers. You can never have too much of a good thing, especially when it comes to flowers from your very own garden. You don’t have to go big when setting up these vases; don’t be afraid to think small, too. Select the type of flowers you love for your small vases and arrange them on your table.

Mix florals and colours
Bright, fresh blooms and greenery are a must for any spring table. Think of combining different hues of plants from magenta to pink, to green hues, and a bit of earthy tones. It is a bonus point if you get complementary napkins and delicate glassware that fit or match the tone of the flowers on the table.
Layer your plates
A table setting inspired by nature will definitely work both in colour and form. Layer a wave of plates and porcelain bowls, which give tactility to the table setting. Delicate and light colours that match the spring season, much like the first blooms of spring. Bring out those special plates to assist in elevating your table setting and get the attention they deserve. No more keeping them for special days behind cabinet doors for good.

Choose the perfect tablecloth
If you don’t have time to craft a DIY spring floral arrangement, let your tablecloth do the talking for you. Tablecloths make a statement without being too loud. A well-thought-out tablecloth creates an elegant spread with the addition of good tableware set up ready for dinner.
Light the table up
Lighting candles always makes any dining table feel more elevated and luxurious. Light up candles to elevate the mood for those late evening dinners. Group or style the candles to match your setting. The ambience will fit the spring theme with nice heavenly scented candles without being overwhelming.
