Easter is such a fun holiday filled with color and love. For many, shopping for decorations is not always possible, so we resort to making our own. Here are some really great outdoor Easter decorations that you can make in the comfort of your own home.
You Will Love These DIY Ideas For Outdoor Easter Decorations
Egg Tree
Do you have a lonesome tree in your yard? Maybe you have several trees. Either way, this DIY decoration is super simple and fun. Poke holes in some plastic eggs and string them up all over the tree. You can even add several to each string by tying a knot under each egg.
Jumbo Easter Basket
Grab an old pool noodle and a hamper basket and make yourself some jumbo Easter baskets to put on your porch. All you need is some zip ties to hold it together. Then, you can proceed to fill it however you like. One idea would be to grab some egg-shaped styrofoam from your craft store and paint some eggs to fill the basket.
Washi Tape Wreath
For this, you need a styrofoam ring, plastic eggs, ribbon, and a hot glue gun. You simply wrap your eggs with your favorite washi tape then hot glue them to the styrofoam ring. You can fashion it with a ribbon or even add some Easter grass for texture. Let your imagination run wild.
Who's been here?
Are you trying to convince your child that the Easter Rabbit really does exist? Grab some sidewalk chalk and make footprints coming up your walkway. You can do these in any color. You might want to also drop a couple plastic eggs along the way.
Egg String Lights
Want to light up your Easter? Perhaps you want to decorate your bushes. You can easily poke holes in the ends of your plastic eggs and poke your old Christmas lights through them. I would recommend using white if you are using colored eggs. If you use white eggs, then use colored lights.
Religious?
Do you celebrate Easter in a more religious manner? We have just the thing for you. You can simply make a cross out of some old wood and use an old scarf, sheet, or leftover fabric to drape across it. This is super easy and cheap.
Got old palettes?
Do you have any old palettes lying around? You can fashion them together to make a canvas that you can paint any kind of Easter greeting or saying on. You end up with an old-fashioned look that your neighbors will be jealous of. Plus, depending on the size of your project, you could also bring it inside and hang on your wall.
Bird's Nest
This decoration idea is not just great for Easter, but it also makes for a great Spring project. And, who knows, maybe you will end up with some baby birds if any birds take a liking to them. The best part of this project is that it is super easy and you can use just about any medium to make the nests.
Foam Bunnies
You can either find some precut bunny foam or buy big squares and cut them out to the shapes you would like to use. After, just spray or hand paint them on all sides. Then you can just poke the bottoms with barbeque skewers to stand them up in your yard. This project is so great because there are so many possibilities.
Woodwork
Do you have extra planks in your shed? Fashion them to make this super cute wooden bunny. He can lean up against your house, porch, or trees. You could even attach a stake to stand him upright in your yard.
