So really, the pickin’s for DIY-ing your very own table centerpiece for Easter are anything but slim. These 23 centerpieces should provide that final push of DIY inspo for you to use the abundance of springy materials you already have at home — from eggshells to Peeps! — to your April tabletop advantage.

18. Giant Chalkboard Eggs: The key to acing this kid-friendly chalkboard-painted centerpiece? Use ostrich eggs! Not only are they larger, providing a bigger canvas for the kiddos to scribble on, but they’re heartier than chicken eggs, so the likelihood of them cracking under pressure is slim to none. (via The Red Thread)
19. Rainbow Water Centerpiece: How insanely creative is this DIY centerpiece? Just add a drop of food coloring to each glass vase to turn your water totally technicolor. You can even try color blocking every other vase, or go with an ombre fade from deep purple to light blue. (via Papery & Cakery)
