I love to set a nice table for my children and my husband. We are usually on a tight budget. Because of that we need to find simple things that we can use from around the house that we already have. I decided on clear glasses, jelly beans and should have added Easter grass. That’s what you should do! 🙂
Here’s what we came up with our simple cheap solutions to table decorations. Check out our table decorations.
Use two cute glasses that are clear. Fill them with jelly beans or mike and ikes and add two tapers. Look how elegant and simple that was.
You could also use your stemware. I think this would make an elegant addition to any table.
This one actually turned out to be my favorite. I’m going to use my stemless wine glasses and add jelly beans. Then add some Easter grass around it and put it in the center of your table. Enjoy Easter dinner and let those kids help you set that table.
Check out my other Easter posts of either crafts or recipes. Kool Aid Dyed Easter eggs,Deviled Egg dip, easy and inexpensive Easter table decorations, Easter Egg nest sugar cookies recipe, 10 must haves for Easter baskets and finally the Easter Bunny Craft using a toilet paper tube. I found more recipes! Here’s the how to roast asparagus which is a great Easter side dish, cola baked ham is great for Easter, sunflower chocolate cake made with peeps and since it’s Easter how about an article on tips to eat less (needed by me especially at the holidays)! Enjoy!

Cool idea! It’s very simple.

Looks so cute. Only question is: How do you keep those kids outta the decorations?
Dina
I refuse to answer because it might incriminate my 16 year old son…he ate them…he gets by with a little help from his friends 10 year old son and 7 year old daughter. heehee!

I love the idea, it can be used for other holidays as well, like red M&M’s for Valentine;s Day , green for St. Patrick’s…I love the idea and low cost

Cute ideas. Would be especially good for the kids table.

This is a great idea, but I would use colored glass instead of jelly beans. I would rather eat the jelly beans, and I would not be able to eat them if there was wax on them. Thank you for sharing this post.

Cute idea! I really don’t think the jelly beans would last in the cup though at my house 🙂
Dina
With 3 school age kids they didn’t last long at my house either. lol

No that is a cool idea, no why did I not think of that! Thank you for saving me money!

this is great, table decorations that double as candy jars. too cute

Neat! You could even put single colored/flavored jelly beans in the glasses that would match some dripless candles.
Betty Baez
This is a cute idea! fast and simple!

I love this although I don’t know how long they would be around before my kids ate the candy. lol
Paula Morgan
What a cute and inexpensive decorating idea!! I would do this for myself, but we have so much trouble with Ants, I could never let them sit out. I would have to use glass pebbles or stones…something that wouldn’t catch fire or draw bugs.
