Spring is a time of renewal, energy, and vibrant color. As the world outside blooms, it’s the perfect opportunity to refresh your home—starting with your tablescape. Spring decor is all about having fun with patterns, bright hues, and unexpected combinations. Whether you’re hosting a festive brunch or simply want to bring the lively spirit of the season to your everyday meals, thoughtful table settings can make all the difference.
In this guide, we’ll explore creative ways to mix and match patterns and colors to design a stunning spring tablescape. Whether you’re new to tablescaping or a seasoned pro, these tips will help you set a table that’s as fresh and exciting as the season itself.
The Art of Coordination: A Perfectly Matched Tablescape
Creating a coordinated table setting is an easy way to ensure your decor feels intentional and polished. The key is to choose one or two core shapes and stick with them throughout your tableware and accessories. When it comes to color, pairing two shades from the same family or selecting adjacent hues from the color wheel creates a harmonious look.
For a sophisticated yet lively spring table, the Round Lacquer Striped Placemats in navy & white set a crisp foundation with their bold, circular striped design. When it comes to plates, you can opt for a simple solid design or something with a pattern – the trick is to pull everything together with the right accents. Cord Napkin Rings in navy & white provide the perfect finishing touch, echoing the stripes of the placemats and making the entire setting feel effortlessly cohesive.
Bold & Unexpected: The Power of Contrast
For those who love to experiment, high-contrast tablescapes are a fantastic way to make a statement. Mixing bold colors and diverse patterns may seem daring, but when done thoughtfully, it results in an unforgettable table setting.
One of the best ways to determine the right color combination is by using a color wheel—contrasting colors sit opposite each other. For a fresh and playful spring table, start with Round Lacquer Striped Placemats in green & white, which offer an energizing pop of color and a striking concentric striped design. To introduce contrast, incorporate deep red tones, such as plates featuring a tomato design—a whimsical nod to nature that pairs beautifully with the green placemats. To tie everything together, finish the look with Cord Napkin Rings in green & white, mirroring the placemat’s striped pattern for a hint of cohesion amidst the contrast.
Mediterranean Warmth: The Allure of Antibes Placemats
Spring is not just about fresh greens and florals—it’s also a time to embrace warmth and the radiant energy of the sun. Inspired by the Mediterranean coast, the Antibes Placemats bring a high-gloss, oval-shaped design featuring bold orange and cream stripes, reminiscent of sun-drenched terraces and seaside escapes.
To enhance this inviting aesthetic, pair the Antibes Placemats with matching Antibes Coasters, creating a seamless flow of color across your table. For a refined yet playful finishing touch, add Horn Napkin Rings in orange, which bring warmth and texture to the setting. Together, these elements create a table that feels lively, modern, and effortlessly chic—perfect for a springtime celebration filled with sunshine and joy.
Designing a spring tablescape is all about embracing color, pattern, and creativity. Whether you prefer the polished elegance of coordinated hues, the excitement of bold contrasts, or the warmth of Mediterranean-inspired design, layering these elements allows you to craft a setting that reflects the vibrancy of the season.
By starting with a statement piece—such as a patterned placemat or a striking napkin ring—you can build a cohesive yet dynamic look that will impress your guests and elevate any gathering. So, set the table, pour the drinks, and welcome spring with open arms and a beautifully designed tablescape!
