Easter is not that far away, is a time for family and tradition.
Even if sometimes you can’t be physically together, digital connections can help make the holiday special.
And I still would love to make a beautiful table setting, even if it’s going to be just me and my husband.
This article, is all about creating a beautiful table setting with Origami Easter Models.
These models are perfect for holding Easter eggs and can add a festive touch to your dining table.
I have folded five egg holders, including an Easter bunny and a chicken egg cup.
They are relatively easy to make, and of course, I am providing links to tutorials for each design.
The bunny basket is simple and fun, while the Pollito-caja is one of my favorites, with its simple yet suggestive design.
I have also created an Easter Origami Centerpiece, featuring four rabbits walking towards the center of the table and one in the center.
In conclusion, creating a table setting can be a fun and engaging way to celebrate Easter, even during times of social distancing.
With a little patience and creativity, you can create beautiful egg holders and centerpieces that are sure to impress your guests, even if they’re only joining you online.
Happy folding!
Beautiful Origami Easter Models Perfect for Your Table Setting
Egg Holders
When I think about Easter I think about rabbits, colorful eggs, chickens, flowers and spring.
I wanted to make some hens and some flowers as well, and I think I will still make them and put them in a different article, as for now we are focusing on egg holders.
In my country, but I think this happens in some other countries as well, we have a tradition of Easter egg pocking. So I think having your egg in front of you in a beautiful holder it’s a nice accent for your table.
I made 5 models, they are not very hard to make and I will link to the tutorials as always if you want to make them yourself.

When I folded this model the tutorial was still available on Martha Stewart site, but today it’s no longer there, so I found a different site that made a tutorial for it.
