MAKE EASTER THE HOLIDAY OF THE YEAR
Easter is a recurring highlight among the Swedish holidays. We set the table for Easter, hide eggs, decorate with feathers and dress the children. Herring! We must not forget about the herring! Same show every year. Despite the fact that Easter may seem like a strange holiday with a blissful mix of everything possible, it is nevertheless a wonderful start to spring. We show you how to take the Easter celebration to new levels with a few simple tricks.
#1
Easter table setting
Table clothing is mostly about creating a pleasant harmony at the table that connects to the holiday. And no, it does not have to be that complicated. Start with a nice cloth and match with a couple of napkins in the same color. Cloth napkins immediately make the table setting feel luxurious. Choose your favorite items from Easter (hares and eggs are two safe tips) and place them along the middle of the table. Then of course we do not mean that you should take eggs directly from the fridge and place on the table. Instead, invest in a decorative bunny or why not paint eggs with the kids? Perfect activity now that we spend more time at home!
Did you know that Floraikus candles can be used after the candle has burned down?

Decorated Easter trees
You know what they say, no Easter without the Easter tree! Okay maybe not, but it feels that way anyway. The Easter trees are perfect as a decoration on the dinner table. It will undoubtedly be the center of the table and also a good topic of conversation the more exciting things you hang in it. In fact, it does not have to be just feathers and eggs that adorn the bare sticks. Make it personal and let your favorite gadgets adorn the tree! Use a fine decorative string or steel wire to hang the objects. Remember not to choose too heavy things so you avoid the Easter tree becoming Easter debris.
#3
The mood
What would be an Easter dinner without a great atmosphere. The first thing you need to do is acquire the mood boosters' number one: the candles! Lovely lights can make any environment go from bare and dull to atmospheric and lovely! Place the candles at the bottom center and do not skimp! Work with different levels and mix stately candelabra with wonderful scented candles. Do not forget to blow them out when the last schnapps is taken.
#4
The Easter gift
Easter eggs for adults! Perhaps the most appreciated feature of the Easter dinner (at least from the guests' side). Jokes aside, often it is actually as fun to give as to receive! An Easter gift at the plate is definitely a mood booster that makes the evening start in the right way. Choose a gift that suits everyone or choose individual gifts according to the guests' personality and style. There is no prestige here and you do not have to spend the entire monthly salary on the gift. It is mainly the gesture that counts. We guarantee that guests will be both surprised and happy.
Do you want to impress a little extra? Fold the napkins into a triangle with the tip facing down. Start with the tip and fold the napkin towards the long side. Tie a ribbon in the middle and then place the gift in the small area that is shaped in the middle.
#5
THE COMMUNITy
What all holidays are really about. Spending time with loved ones is what makes Easter what it is. We know it's a little tricky right now, but you do not have to invite everyone you know to have a good time. Maybe it is enough with the partner, family or closest friends? And take advantage of the fact that we live in the digital age where grandma & grandpa's can actually be on a video link. Thank you for the digitization!
