Anche gli alberi a primavera scrivono poesie (Donato Di Poce)
La strada che porta alla casa in collina corre per buona parte tra boschi e frutteti. In questo inizio di primavera è quasi magico vedere il primo verde delle foglie nuove alternarsi a quelle nuvole bianche e rosa che sono gli alberi in fiore. Per questo li ho scelti come ispirazione per la mia prima tavola per la Pasqua 2019, che vi propongo oggi all’interno del blog hop organizzato da Chloe di Celebrate and Decorate in vista delle prossime festività.
Ho apparecchiato in collina, all’aperto, approfittando di una magnifica giornata di sole: praticamente lo scenario perfetto per una serena Pasqua di piena primavera.
La tavola, come vedete, è giocata su tre colori: bianco, blu e rosa. Una palette fresca e delicata, ma non eccessivamente romantica, proprio come piace a me. Alla base, non una tovaglia ma due semplici runner chiari. Li accendono di colore i piatti transferware blu abbinati a piattini tinta unita rosa antico.
A dare armonia al posto tavola, un piccolo segnaposto che è anche dono pasquale: una scatoletta in metallo a forma di uovo dalla base blu decorata con fiori di ciliegio stilizzati in bianco e rosa, perfetta per accogliere i tradizionali ovetti di cioccolata o un piccolo pensiero personalizzato per gli invitati.
Semplici le posate d’acciaio, mentre il blu, intenso e luminoso, ritorna nei bicchieri e nel tovagliolo, ingentilito da un rametto di fiori bianchi. Ancora transferware bianco e blu nelle coppette da macedonia, qui “promosse” a piattino per il pane.
A centrotavola, una brocca dallo stesso decoro dei piatti ospita una etera composizione di rami di pruno dai fiori candidi; praticamente, una nuvola di petali sospesa appena sopra la tavola.
Ecco, questa è la mia prima proposta per la tavola di Pasqua 2019. Non sarà l’unica, promesso! Ora però vi lascio l’elenco di tutte le partecipanti al blog hop, per una settimana piena di idee a cui ispirarsi. In chiusura, come sempre, troverete tutti i dettagli della mia tavola.

A casa di Bianca 
La solita prestigiatrice! Prendi un normale bianco e blu che farebbe un po’ mare, ci aggiungi un tocco rosa e qualche fiorellino, ed ecco una deliziosa tavola pasquale che mi porta anche ad ambientarla a Kyoto, giusto per la festa dei ciliegi! 😃

So pretty Donna! Vibrant blue and pink and your beautiful outdoor setting. Yourr cobalt blue glasses are stunning. Another pretty Easter tablescape.

Thank you Kari, we are having beautiful sunny days this early spring! It’s quite uncommon here in Northern Italy…
Donna, another beautiful table — I especially love those gorgeous eggs at each place setting. How wonderful to be able to set your table for Easter outside! Here we are cold again with a light dusting of snow…
Thank you Debbee! Spring is often rainy here, so… cross fingers for a sunny Easter day!
Beautiful alfresco table. Love the vibrant blues and pinks.
Lovely setting and spring blooms.
Nice to blog hop with you.
Thank you Bonnie!
Donna, your table is such a delight!! So beautifully set using nature as your cue. The apple blossom stems look gorgeous and I am so crushing on those fabulous eggs!! I am a bit jealous as we are still cold and bits of snow here. I would love to sit at your beautiful table with the sun shining down on us as we chat!!! Have a wonderful Easter season🐣
Thank you Ann! Here in Italy weather is quite strange this spring: snow in the South and sun in the North. Hope we’ll have a nice Easter all over in the country!
Such a stunning and beautiful table to enjoy on a lovely Spring day. The colors are so vibrant and the use of pink against the bright cobalt blue is perfect, especially among the sunshine. Your white apple blossom centerpiece is a gorgeous accent to this exquisite table.
Thank you Marsha!
