Quick and easy Easter decorations: here are 22 ideas to make your home more welcoming
When holidays come around, whatever they happen to be, most of us like to decorate our home appropriately. And Easter is no exception. Whether bought or DIYed, decorating for Easter is something a lot of us enjoy doing.
Check out the 22 tips below on putting together great Easter decorations:
1. Welcoming....
A smiling bunny is just what you need to welcome guests to your home. You can buy one or make it yourself with a little creativity.
2. Elegant and chic
A large egg positioned in the center of a bowl full of straw, and surrounded by other small eggs. Neutral in color and looking very elegant.
3. A familiar silhouette
This rabbit silhouette/cut-out is a throw-back from the past that many will remember seeing. Place it on top of furniture or in the corner of a room.
4. An original plant holder
This object could serve as a decoration, but also as a small gift for your friends. All you need is a six-slot egg carton, egg shells and some small succulent plants to put inside them. Cute, no?
5. A fabric doily
Need something relatively simple? Well, how about these simple doilies made to look like colorful eggs?
6. A moss rabbit

Get two balls - one large and one small - place them one on top of the other and cover them with a little moss. Add a bow, put the composition in a vase and your mossy rabbit is ready!
7. An Easter tree
Lots of colored, paper eggs can become decorations for the branches of your Easter tree. It doesn't take much to turn a few branches into a fetching Easter decoration.
8. Watch out - they might get in!
Cut out a lot of colored rabbit silhouettes and add white wadding for their tails. Then stick them to the doors around the home (as shown here). A very cute look!
9. A wreath is always nice
Whether indoors or outdoors, a wreath is the ideal choice when you want to decorate with a touch of elegance. A little greenery and eggs provide the Easter look.
10. Table runner
Many of us usually don't leave the table bare when it's not set and to this end, we use table runners. And you can buy or make this example of an Easter-themed runner.
11. A merry crew
Paper bunnies of all shapes can be placed together on a piece of furniture, or used as placeholders for your festive lunches. And they come in all sorts of colors too - you just need to choose.
12. One basket is enough...
That's right, a basket and some eggs inside - perhaps even real ones - and your decoration is ready.
13. A rabbit-shaped wreath
You have to have rabbits around at Easter, but perhaps you don't want to use rabbit statuettes? Well, you can buy or make this cute rabbit-shaped wreath for you front door.
14. Recycle jars
Recycle your empty jars in cute Easter bunnies using acrylic paints, drawing on the face and adding ears to the lids.
15. "Oh no! He's getting in"
Instead of a classic Easter wreath, why not choose a humorous one of a rabbit who is trying to sneak into the house?
16. A delicate decoration

Eggs and their shells can be reused to create fantastic Easter compositions. In this example, an egg is hung from a shaped bundle of twigs. Adding some delicate flowers will complete this Easter scene.
17. A circle of colored eggs
Who said eggs can only be one color? Paint up a clutch of eggs (real or artificial) and use them to form a ring around a decorative candle.
18. A string of illuminated eggs
Fairy lights help create a wonderful, magical atmosphere and this holds true for Easter-themed decorations.
19. Egg shell candles
Make som DIY candles using egg shells. Simply melt some wax, pour it into an empty (reasonably whole) egg shell, and insert a wick. Your Easter candles produced in a jiffy!
20. Baubles for your Easter tree
A vase won't take too long to transform into an Easter tree. Just get a few Easter-themed baubles and hang them from branches you've picked up and collected.
21. A bespectacled rabbit
Candlesticks are not only useful for holding candles, but can also host the head of a cute, bespectacled rabbit.
22. Fill a jar with... eggs
Get two vases of different sizes and put one inside the other. Then fill the space between them lots of colored eggs. Finish off by putting water and flowers in the smaller vase.
Now you've seen all these Easter decorating ideas, you just need to get cracking!
