1. Pastel Painted Eggs

These are classic Easter decor. Use hard-boiled or fake craft eggs and paint them in soft colors like mint, pink, and blue. They look great piled up in a simple bowl.

• Use matte craft paint for a soft finish.
• Mix colors for a custom pastel palette.
• Display them near a window for brightness.

Pro Tip: If using plastic eggs, fill them with a little sand before painting so they don’t roll around while you work.

2. Washi Tape Eggs

Washi tape makes decorating eggs super fast and clean. Cut small strips of tape in fun patterns like stripes or dots. Press the tape onto plain eggs for instant color.

• Choose tape with small, simple patterns.
• Use solid color tape for a modern look.
• Seal the edges down well to prevent lifting.

Pro Tip: This method works best on smooth plastic or wooden eggs rather than bumpy real eggshells.

3. Speckled Egg Wreath

Create a rustic wreath using faux eggs painted with tiny speckles. Mix them in with green leaves or vines for a natural look. Hang this on your front door or above a fireplace.

• Use a toothbrush dipped in paint to create speckles.
• Choose brown or black paint for the speckles.
• Add a simple burlap bow for texture.

Pro Tip: To make the speckling look real, stand back a few feet and flick the brush gently toward the eggs.

4. Bunny Wall Art

Cut simple bunny shapes from wood or thick cardboard. Paint them white or a soft pastel color. These look great placed inside a gallery wall for Easter.

• Use a stencil to get a perfect bunny shape.
• Try painting the background a darker color.
• Group three different sizes together.

Pro Tip: For a quick fix, print the silhouette onto heavy cardstock and frame it instead of cutting wood.

5. Hanging Egg Tree

Place bare branches (like willow or birch) into a vase. Hang decorated eggs, ribbons, and small ornaments from the branches. This makes a great centerpiece.

• Use thick, sturdy branches that won’t tip over.
• Hang eggs at different heights for movement.
• Add fairy lights for evening sparkle.

Pro Tip: Anchor the branches firmly in the vase using pebbles, sand, or floral foam so they don’t wobble.

6. Wooden Bunny Signs

Cut wooden shapes into bunnies and paint them with cute faces or short Easter words. These are perfect for leaning on shelves or entry tables.

• Use chalk paint for a farmhouse style.
• Write a simple word like “HOP” or “SPRING.”
• Sand the edges for a worn look.

Pro Tip: If you don’t have a saw, buy pre-cut wood shapes at the craft store to save time.

7. Mini Pot Wreath

Glue small terracotta pots onto a wreath base. Fill the pots with moss, tiny flowers, or small eggs. This gives your door a rustic, earthy feel.

• Use strong glue to hold the pots securely.
• Choose pots that are 2 inches or smaller.
• Paint the pots white or gray first.

Pro Tip: Make sure the pots are completely dry before gluing them onto the wreath frame.

8. Carrot Door Hanger

Make a large carrot shape using felt, fabric, or wood. Add green fabric or raffia at the top to look like the leafy greens. Hang it proudly on your door.

• Use bright orange felt for a soft look.
• Stuff the fabric carrot lightly to give it shape.
• Tie a simple twine bow at the top.

Pro Tip: If you use wood, paint it with a clear coat so the color doesn’t fade in the sun or rain.

9. Egg Carton Flowers

Cut up old cardboard egg cartons and shape the cups into flower petals. Paint them bright colors and glue them onto a wreath form. This is a cheap craft!

• Use different sized egg cups for variety.
• Paint the center of the “flower” yellow.
• Add a button or bead in the middle of each flower.

Pro Tip: This craft is great for using up small amounts of leftover paint you have in the garage.

10. Flower Bunny Marquee

Create a large bunny shape and fill the outline with faux flowers. You can also add small battery-powered LED lights around the edge. It’s a fun statement piece.

• Use hot glue to attach the flowers tightly.
• Choose flowers in white, pink, and yellow tones.
• Make sure the lights are cool-touch LEDs.

Pro Tip: If you want to skip the flowers, just wrap the entire bunny shape tightly in twine or yarn.

11. Painted Easter Candles

Take plain white candles and paint small Easter designs onto them. Think tiny bunnies, dots, or pastel stripes. Use these on your dining table.

• Use acrylic paint mixed with a fabric medium to help it stick.
• Keep the designs near the bottom of the candle.
• Use thin brushes for details.

Pro Tip: Never leave painted candles burning without watching them closely, or use battery-operated candles instead.

12. Egg Candle Holders

Use hollowed-out eggshells or small egg cups as holders for tiny candles. They add a delicate, soft glow to your Easter table setup.

• Place the eggshells in a small bowl of sand for stability.
• Use tea lights or small votives.
• Decorate the outside of the shell simply.

Pro Tip: If using real eggshells, make sure they are completely clean and dry before adding any wax or candle.

13. Bunny Ear Napkin Rings

Make napkin rings shaped like bunny ears using felt, stiff fabric, or wire. These add a playful touch to each plate setting for dinner.

• Use white or gray felt for a realistic look.
• Glue a small pom-pom tail onto the ring.
• Slide the ring over folded cloth napkins.

Pro Tip: To make the ears stand up straight, insert thin floral wire inside the fabric before sewing or gluing.

14. Carrot Flower Vase

Place real or fake carrots inside a clear vase, standing upright. Then, fill the center with water and spring flowers like tulips or daisies.

• Use small, thin carrots so they fit neatly around the edge.
• Make sure the flowers reach above the carrots.
• Change the water daily for real flowers.

Pro Tip: If you use faux carrots, you can use floral foam instead of water to hold the flowers in place.

15. Egg Place Card Holders

Use small decorative eggs or egg cups to hold name cards for your guests. This helps everyone find their seat at the Easter meal.

• Write the guest’s name on a small flag attached to a toothpick.
• Use painted wooden eggs for stability.
• Place one at the top of each plate.

Pro Tip: If you use real eggs, cut a small slit in the top of the shell to hold the card upright.

16. Mason Jar Vases

Decorate simple glass mason jars by painting them pastel colors, wrapping them in twine, or adding ribbons. Fill them with fresh spring flowers.

• Paint the inside of the jar for a smooth finish.
• Tie a simple bow around the rim.
• Use different jar sizes for visual interest.

Pro Tip: To get a distressed look, paint the jar, let it dry, and then lightly sand the edges.

17. Succulent Egg Planters

Use hollowed-out eggshells or egg-shaped containers as tiny planters for succulents. They are perfect for a modern, simple Easter look.

• Use small, slow-growing succulent cuttings.
• Place a tiny bit of gravel at the bottom for drainage.
• Display them on a tray or windowsill.

Pro Tip: Since eggshells don’t drain well, only water the succulents with a few drops every few weeks.

18. Decorative Egg Nests

Create small nests using moss, twigs, or raffia. Fill them with faux eggs and maybe a tiny bird figurine. Use these on tables or mantels.

• Buy pre-made craft nests for ease.
• Use speckled eggs for a natural look.
• Place the nest on a cake stand to give it height.

Pro Tip: If you use real twigs, bake them briefly in the oven to kill any bugs before bringing them inside.

19. Bunny Shapes Garland

Cut bunny shapes from paper or felt in soft spring colors. String them together on twine or ribbon. Hang this across your mantel or a doorway.

• Use thick cardstock so the shapes don’t flop.
• Space the bunnies evenly on the string.
• Add a small pom-pom tail to each bunny.

Pro Tip: Use a hole punch to make clean, even holes in the paper shapes for threading the string.

20. Basket Centerpiece

Take a decorative basket and fill it with Easter items like eggs, flowers, and greenery. This is an easy, customizable centerpiece for any table.

• Choose a basket with a sturdy handle.
• Use bright spring colors for the filler items.
• Add height with tall flowers or branches.

Pro Tip: Line the basket with a soft cloth napkin or moss to hide the bottom and add texture.

21. Paper Egg Garland

Cut out egg shapes from patterned scrapbook paper or colored cardstock. String them together to make a cheerful, colorful garland.

• Use double-sided paper so it looks good from all angles.
• Vary the size of the eggs.
• Use bright, cheerful patterns like gingham or polka dots.

Pro Tip: For a 3D effect, cut out two identical egg shapes and sew them together down the middle before folding them open.

22. Felt Carrot Garland

Sew or glue soft felt carrots onto a piece of twine. Add green felt leaves at the top of each carrot. This is a sweet, soft decoration.

• Use bright orange and deep green felt.
• Stuff the carrots lightly with cotton batting or scrap felt.
• Hang it low where kids can see it.

Pro Tip: If you don’t sew, use fabric glue, but let it dry overnight before hanging the garland up.

23. Simple Bunny Garland

Create a repeating garland using simple bunny outlines cut from neutral or pastel paper. This offers a clean, modern look.

• Use white or gray paper for a simple silhouette.
• Keep the shapes all the same size.
• Use thin, clear thread for hanging.

Pro Tip: To make the garland hang straight, tape a small coin to the back of every few bunnies for weight.

24. Pom-Pom Bunny Banner

Cut out bunny shapes and glue fluffy white pom-poms onto the back of each one for tails. String them up for a textured banner.

• Use medium-sized pom-poms for the tails.
• Choose felt or thick paper for the bunny body.
• Use hot glue for a strong hold.

Pro Tip: If you don’t want to buy pom-poms, you can easily make your own using yarn and a fork.

25. Floral Hoop Hanging

Use an embroidery hoop or a wooden dowel rod. Attach faux flowers and greenery to create a beautiful hanging piece for the wall.

• Use flowers that look like spring blooms (tulips, hyacinths).
• Add long ribbons hanging down the bottom.
• Keep the wood hoop exposed.

Pro Tip: Use wire cutters to trim the flower stems short so they lay flat against the hoop.

26. Crochet Bunny Bunting

If you know how to crochet, make small bunny shapes and connect them into a cozy bunting. This adds a warm, handmade touch.

• Use soft yarn like cotton or acrylic.
• Choose light, airy colors like cream or yellow.
• Starch the bunnies slightly so they keep their shape.

Pro Tip: This bunting looks especially nice hung across a window or above a crib.

27. Rainbow Egg Garland

Cut or paint egg shapes in a rainbow order using pastel colors (pink, yellow, green, blue, purple). String them up for a cheerful look.

• Make sure the colors flow smoothly from one shade to the next.
• Use glitter paint on some eggs for sparkle.
• Hang the garland in a sunny spot.

Pro Tip: To ensure even spacing, cut a small piece of cardboard the size you want between each egg and use it as a spacer while stringing.

28. Framed Felt Flowers

Arrange felt flowers and small felt eggs inside a picture frame or an embroidery hoop. This makes unique, textured wall decor.

• Use a background fabric like burlap or linen inside the frame.
• Give the felt flowers a 3D look by layering petals.
• Use small, simple eggs.

Pro Tip: Instead of gluing, you can lightly stitch the felt pieces onto the fabric backing for a cleaner look.

29. Hanging Carrot Decor

Tie together a bunch of faux or real carrots with twine. Add some greenery like fern leaves or eucalyptus. Hang this rustic bouquet on a hook.

• Use carrots of similar length.
• Wrap the twine tightly several times.
• Make sure the greenery spills out the top.

Pro Tip: If using real carrots, replace them every few days or use them only for the Easter meal itself.

30. Scripture Wall Art

Make simple signs or printouts featuring short Easter messages, Bible verses, or spring quotes. Frame them or paint them onto wood.

• Use a nice, easy-to-read font.
• Keep the quote short and sweet.
• Use pastel colors for the text.

Pro Tip: If you have bad handwriting, print the quote and trace it onto your wood sign using carbon paper.

31. Door Easter Wreath

Create a homemade wreath using a mix of eggs, bunnies, flowers, or carrots. This welcomes guests right at your front door.

• Start with a grapevine or foam wreath base.
• Use durable materials that can handle the weather.
• Add a big, bright bow.

Pro Tip: If your wreath is very full, hang it using a ribbon over the top of the door rather than a small hook.

32. Outdoor Carrot Stakes

Cut carrot shapes from wood or thick plastic. Paint them orange and green. Attach them to stakes and place them in your garden beds or planters.

• Use exterior paint so the color lasts.
• Make the stakes long enough to stand up straight.
• Group them in sets of three or five.

Pro Tip: Seal the wood with a clear outdoor sealant to prevent rain damage and fading.

33. Tall Porch Sign

Paint a tall, skinny piece of wood with Easter greetings, bunny shapes, or spring words. Lean it against your house near the front door.

• Use block letters that are easy to read from the street.
• Choose colors that match your home’s exterior.
• Add a bow near the top.

Pro Tip: To make the sign look old, lightly brush white paint over the top of the colored letters after they dry.

34. Eggshell Lanterns

Carefully poke tiny holes into hollowed eggshells. Place small LED tea lights inside to create delicate, glowing mini-lanterns.

• Use a drill bit or thick needle to make the holes.
• Use only battery-operated lights, never real flames.
• Arrange them on a dark table.

Pro Tip: For a better glow, use white or very light-colored eggshells.

35. Moss Bunny Topiary

Get a bunny-shaped frame (wire or foam) and cover it completely in moss or greenery. Use it outdoors or as a fun indoor piece.

• Use preserved moss for a long-lasting indoor topiary.
• Mist the moss lightly if it starts to look dry.
• Place it in a nice pot.

Pro Tip: Secure the moss tightly using floral pins or hot glue so it doesn’t fall off the frame.

36. Weatherproof Egg Garland

String together weather-safe plastic or foam eggs. Hang this garland outside on fences, porch railings, or window boxes.

• Choose eggs that are brightly colored so they stand out.
• Use strong, thick outdoor twine.
• Secure the ends tightly so the wind doesn’t break it.

Pro Tip: If you are worried about the eggs blowing away, use a drop of hot glue to secure them to the twine.

37. Chalkboard Easter Sign

Use a small chalkboard to draw Easter art like bunnies, flowers, or eggs. Write a welcoming Easter message on it.

• Use chalk markers for a cleaner look than regular chalk.
• Draw a simple border around the edge.
• Place it near the entry.

Pro Tip: If you make a mistake, use a damp cloth to wipe the chalkboard clean and start over easily.

38. Rustic Pallet Sign

Use old wood pallet pieces to create a rustic sign. Paint it with large Easter designs or words like “Happy Easter.”

• Sand the wood lightly before painting.
• Use bold colors that stand out against the rustic wood.
• Seal it for outdoor use.

Pro Tip: Use the natural gaps in the pallet wood to separate different words or colors in your design.

39. Bunny Face Pots

Paint simple bunny faces onto terracotta pots. Fill them with bright spring flowers like hyacinths or tulips.

• Use white paint for the face and pink for the nose.
• Add large, simple ears cut from felt or foam.
• Place them on the porch steps.

Pro Tip: Drill a small hole in the bottom of the pot if it doesn’t have one, so your plants don’t get too much water.

40. Porch Flower Planters

Decorate plain outdoor planters with ribbons or paint. Fill them with bright, real or fake spring flowers to boost your curb appeal.

• Use flowers that bloom early, like pansies or daffodils.
• Choose pots that are large enough to make a statement.
• Add a layer of moss on top of the soil.

Pro Tip: If you use faux flowers, place them in the planter firmly and cover the foam with dirt or pebbles to make them look real.

41. Pom-Pom Bunny Figures

Make fluffy pom-poms and shape them into small bunny figures. Use them as shelf decor, table scatter, or attach them to garlands.

• Use yarn in white, gray, or brown.
• Glue on tiny felt ears and bead eyes.
• Make sure the pom-poms are very dense and round.

Pro Tip: If you are making many, use a pom-pom maker tool to ensure they are all the same size quickly.

42. Salt Dough Bunnies

Mix up simple salt dough, cut it into bunny shapes, bake it, and paint it once cool. These make cute, long-lasting ornaments.

• Use cookie cutters for perfect shapes.
• Poke a hole at the top before baking for hanging.
• Seal them with varnish after painting.

Pro Tip: If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour until it feels like playdough.

43. Carrot Treat Boxes

Fold orange paper into small carrot shapes. Fill them with candy or small toys. Use them as favors on your Easter table or in baskets.

• Use bright orange construction paper.
• Tie the top with green ribbon or raffia for the leaves.
• Keep the boxes small for treats.

Pro Tip: Use a ruler and bone folder to make very crisp, clean folds in the paper for a professional look.

44. DIY Easter Cards

Create your own Easter cards using stamps, colored paper, bunny cutouts, and glue. These are great for adding a personal touch to gifts.

• Use simple watercolor washes for the background.
• Layer different textures of paper.
• Keep the inside message short.

Pro Tip: Use foam dots to lift some elements off the card, giving it a cool 3D effect.

45. Bead Bunny Figures

Stack wooden beads of different sizes to create simple, modern bunny shapes. Add small felt ears on top.

• Use natural, unfinished wooden beads for a minimalist look.
• Glue the beads together firmly.
• Use thin wire for the ears.

Pro Tip: If you don’t want to glue, thread the beads onto thick wire or twine to hold the shape.

46. Mini Eggshell Candles

Use clean, hollowed eggshells as molds or containers for pouring melted wax and wicks. These make tiny, unique candles.

• Use soy wax, as it melts easily and cleanly.
• Use small wicks that are centered well.
• Place the eggshells in an egg carton while the wax sets.

Pro Tip: To make the eggshells stand up, peel off a tiny bit of the bottom shell so the base is flat.

47. Felted Easter Eggs

Use needle felting techniques to create soft, textured eggs with decorative patterns or simple colors.

• Use wool roving in bright or pastel shades.
• Felt the wool tightly so the eggs keep their shape.
• Add small dots or stripes with different colored wool.

Pro Tip: If you are new to felting, always use finger guards to protect your hands from the sharp needle.

48. Large Surprise Eggs

Use large plastic or paper mache eggs. Decorate the outside beautifully and fill them with treats or small toys for a fun surprise.

• Decorate the outside with glitter, paint, or decoupage.
• Use a ribbon to hold the two halves together.
• Hide these around the house.

Pro Tip: Make sure the hinge or seam of the egg is strong enough to hold the weight of the items inside.

49. Paper Rabbit Decor

Fold paper into simple origami rabbit shapes. Use these small figures for table scatter, place settings, or attached to gifts.

• Use paper that is colored on both sides.
• Choose small, simple patterns.
• Make several rabbits in different sizes.

Pro Tip: If you are having trouble with the folds, watch a simple video tutorial online for the basic rabbit shape.

50. Homemade Easter Baskets

Take plain baskets and decorate them yourself using paint, fabric liners, ribbons, or lace. Use them for holding eggs or as general decor.

• Use spray paint to quickly change the color of a cheap basket.
• Sew a simple fabric liner to hide the glue or rough edges.
• Tie ribbons onto the handle.
