15 Mother’s Day Brunch DIY Decor Ideas

Not only is Mother’s Day a time to celebrate and thank all the wonderful moms in your life but it’s also a great excuse to host and style a beautiful spring brunch. Setting up a gorgeous table shows your guests how special they are and makes an event that much more memorable (and provides lots of great photo opps!). With the Spring season, there’s no shortage of colorful inspiration. Whether you’re hosting a full meal, passing some snacks or having a tea party, here are 15 great ideas you can make yourself to decorate your table.

Sometimes we have good intentions to set a lovely table then the whole shopping, cooking, cleaning thing can get in the way. I’ve learned from experience that it works best when you plan ahead. Try setting the table a day or two in advance (minus the fresh flowers of course). It’s something you can check off your list well in advance.
