What would Easter be without the beautiful decorations? You can buy imaginative decorations in the many online shops and gift shops. But especially at the beginning of spring, when the awakening of nature is celebrated, artificial materials, plastic flowers, etc. are not the best decoration option. It's best when you can design the decoration yourself. And if you pay attention to sustainability, you can also decorate your home for Easter with the Easter decoration ideas shown here.
Nature offers us a variety of suitable materials all year round from which attractive and individual Easter decorations can be conjured up. Interesting Easter decorations for the house and garden can be arranged using pussy willows, straw or natural Easter grass, blown out white eggs, leftover wood, etc. WhoCrafting with children at EasterIf you want, you can also use colorful craft paper, cardboard or cardboard for your Easter projects.

You can use paper to make the following ideas for Easter decorations. Above you can see a pretty garland thatmade of paper bunniesconsists. Pretty, patterned paper was used. Cotton wool again serves as the tail. With this decoration you can decorate not only the wall, but also the mantel, window or door.
This example is also interesting, in which the garland is designed vertically. For this purpose, the paper bunnies are first cut out and then attached to a string. Not only rabbit figures are suitable for this, but also all other Easter symbols, such as eggs, chicks, chickens or spring flowers.
These colorful Easter eggs from our list of craft ideas are also made of paper. For each 3D egg you will need four eggs that you cut out of paper. Fold each egg in half and then glue them together as shown. Use as many colors as possible and preferably the same pattern and designpretty Easter nests.
A decoration made from natural materials brings nature to your table. Like this wooden egg, for example, carefully decorated with the burning pen. This is how it works: print one or more templates, trace them on graphite paper, then transfer the motif to the egg on paper. Slowly and carefully trace the pre-painted lines with the burning pen. The longer you stay in one spot while painting with the burning pen, the darker the burn marks will become. The wooden egg is ideal as a place card or small gift on the Easter table. Your guests will be delighted with this very personal creation.
Surprise your family with these unusual ideas: A DIY wooden basket can welcome your guests with treats, or make an appearance as a flower or egg stand. Instead of an Easter wreath, you can hang an Easter bunny with a fluffy tail on the front door. Decorations made of driftwood, which are mainly seen in summer decoration sets, can also be effectively staged at Easter. All that is required is creativity.

A slightly more complex project is this original picture made from wood. A board serves as a background while you use letters to create any words and lettering that fit the theme. And it is precisely the letters that are the most difficult part. You can also have them made by a carpenter. You may also find ready-made wooden letters at a craft store. When designing, also use bright colors to symbolize the awakening of spring with all its blossoms and flowers.
