IKEA's candy-colored Easter tableware collection is ultra-sweet for spring

Spring is in the air, Easter is on its way, and IKEA's new season of tableware instantly got me in the mood for al fresco meals — weather permitting. It's full of candy colored crockery, delicate floral table linens, and sweet Easter decorations. There's also plenty of affordable outdoor gadgets to really set the mood if you do make it outside, including weatherproof Bluetooth speakers and quirky camping lamps. Below, I've rounded up my favorite picks from the collection as inspiration for your own outdoor dining setup.

Within the tableware collection, I particularly love the egg-shaped Tjarlek glass hanging decorations, which are almost like Christmas baubles but for Easter, and the mint green Behovd vacuum flask, which would be perfect for keeping your drinks cool while you're sitting outside.

On the gadget front, the standout is the Vappeby Portable Bluetooth speaker — it comes in a range of cheerful colors (the dusky pink fits in perfectly with IKEA's wider Easter tableware range, but I'm also quite taken with the bold electric blue version). It's IP67 waterproof, cordless and rechargeable, and small enough to sit unobtrusively on your table to provide some background music.
