Fast and Easy Easter Wall Decor

Make your own Easter wall art by painting a piece of scrap wood, (item pictured is 48"x4"), with green acrylic paint, then trimming and attaching spring-green boxwood mats with a staple gun or permanent adhesive. This whimsical burlap Easter banner with fresh pastel colors is hung in a swag from the board, too. The whole easy DIY Easter decoration is fashioned with a picture hanger added to the back. You can add faux flowers or other extras to yours, and change the banner out with the seasons; have fun and get creative!

Make Guests Feel Right At Gnome

The wood trestle table is surrounded with white chairs and set with a simple wood grain patterned fabric runner. This table springs to life with the addition of a hand arranged Easter centerpiece brimming with blooms of faux flowers. DIY Easter Gnomes are placed at each seat, (shh... they have a surprise element that will soon be revealed!). Two winding spring flower garlands were twisted together and run the length of the table. Spot the golden egg for a special surprise! See all of the step-by-step instructions for the DIY Easter Gnomes here.

Pastel scalloped napkins and pastel paper cups accent the place settings nicely.

Craft Up Some Spring Details

One fun handmade craft on this spring table is a set of six Felt Carrot Napkin Rings. They're quite easy to make, using basic craft supplies like chenille stems, wood ball beads and colorful felt sheets.

Napkins are rolled, and the napkin rings slipped on. Next, fun pink forks and pink knives are arranged behind the felt carrot. I just love the little touch of color this adds. Get the full Felt Carrot Napkin Rings tutorial here.

Did you already spot these delightful bunny cups? They're perfect for kids and make for a fun take home party favor. Charming chick eggs are made to stand on the table by simply adding a glue dot to a small wood slice, and pressing the egg into place. Put these little guys everywhere; you can fill them with treats, or simply use them as cute Easter decor. For a fun Easter activity, make an Easter game out of them by putting hidden messages or instructions inside and having guests choose randomly which one to open.

A Splendid Spring Centerpiece

An Easter tablescape wouldn't be complete without a stunning focal point, and this hand arranged Easter centerpiece is a perfect pick. Large silk flowers are arranged into a wood handle basket, and adorned with a voluminous bow. Miniature moss bunnies are attached to wood dowels and placed into the arrangement and appear to leap over the blooms beneath.

More bunnies are placed around the table, here and there. This little bunny couple appears to have just met. It's no surprise; spring is the most gnomantic time of year.

Something Special for Your Gnomies

Dapperly dressed Easter Gnomes sit at each Easter place setting. Their hats are made from vibrant orange carrot treat bags, decorated with a touch of white chalk pen. It adds a realistic look, don't you think? As promised, they hold a hidden surprise!

If you guessed that these well groomed gnomes are made from treat jars, you guessed right! These bearded beauties are filled with a generous helping of delicious Easter candies and fun Easter basket toys. They're quite entertaining to make, and can be customized in endless ways. (Warning: You might find yourself making seasonal gnomes!) These DIY Easter Gnome Treat Jars are also a great way to show appreciation for your neighbors, teachers and service professionals throughout the spring.

Style a Festive Favor Station

A white wood cart holds pre-party Easter treats designed to keep curious hands off the main table for as long as possible. Easter egg shaped paper lanterns are fun party props that can be hung or displayed on tabletops or floors next to your favor station.

Wide ribbon in an aqua shade needed a little boost, and these felt bunny embellishments really did the trick! Stick them on everything for instant spring charm.

A side table, or other supportive surface, dressed with a piece of fabric, is another perfect place to set this cute station up. Make it egg-stra special with the addition of this sturdy Carrot Treat Stand with Cones. Assembly is a cinch, and you can fill the carrot shaped treat cones with chocolate eggs, little bunny and chick erasers or anything you like! A little white paper shred and some curious chick eggs is also a very cute option!

The inviting display is set atop a vibrant green boxwood mat while small colorful chenille chicks sit all around. They remind me of brightly colored jelly beans, and are such a nostalgic Easter decoration.

Metal buckets are set on a bed of fluffy white fur and are filled with drawstring canvas bunny bags. These bunny bags will hold a generous amount of tasty Easter candy and small Easter treats. They're also the perfect size for holding gifts of cards or cash. Plastic Easter eggs and smaller Easter egg stamps are nestled into the soft fur; a subtle design touch that's reminiscent of the Easter bunny.

Bunny silhouettes on milk carton favor boxes add to the Easter decor theme. These versatile favor boxes are folded here to stand tall, but they can also be folded into milk cartons. They're artfully tied with baker's twine, and free printable labels are attached. Our labels say, "Happy Easter Gnomies". It's lots of fun to carry the theme throughout the various party displays in this way.
