Easter is a festive holiday full of pastels, florals, colorful eggs and adorable animals (such as bunnies and chicks). While you may be decorating your home in spring decor, don't forget to spruce up your front door with Easter wreaths.
To help you find the perfect wreath to DIY on your own or with family and friends, we're sharing these creative and vibrant designs that make great Easter door decorations. And the options vary! If you're an animal lover, you may want to deck out your wreath with bunny clippings or love birds. After you host the traditional Easter egg scavenger hunt, you can use leftover candy or Easter eggs to make a wreath your guests will adore. What makes these ideas even "hoppier" is that you can leave them up on your door even after the Easter Bunny leaves to continue spreading cheer throughout the spring season (if you liked our little pun, check out our list of Easter puns that are "egg-citing"). The ideas are colorful, eye-catching and sure to work for many more Easter celebrations to come.
Beaded Carrot Wreath
Welcome the Easter Bunny into your home with this beaded carrot wreath.
What You'll Need: colored eggs, natural egg carton, scissors, acrylic paint, craft brush, yellow felt triangles, hot glue and colored feathers
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Lay down drop cloth on your work area. Paint each wood bead orange and let them dry.
- Bend one end of the floral wire over with your wire cutters to create a stopping point for the beads.
- Thread each bead onto the floral wire starting with the smallest and working your way up to the largest size.
- Bend the floral wire over and cut the excess. Cut a small bunch of the excelsior all one length using your scissors.
- Stick the excelsior into the top hole and if you want to add more than what fits in the hole, dab a little hot glue on the top of the bead and add more excelsior.
- Repeat steps 2-7 for your desired number of carrots. Tie together with a ribbon to make a bunch of carrots.
- Attach a ribbon onto the back with a few dabs of hot glue and hang the design on your door.
Painted Cupcake Liner Wreath
For this colorful wreath, all you'll need are some white cupcake liners, white foam wreath form, acrylic paint, craft brushes, a drop cloth and sewing pins with white tops.
Follow these steps to make your own:
- Lay down drop cloth on your work area.
- Paint each cupcake liner a different color by making brush strokes on the edges of the liner. Make sure to keep the center white to get a ‘flower look.'
- Let completely dry.
- Once dry, attach your painted cupcake liners to the foam wreath form with a pin in the center — being sure to alternate colors to create a more dynamic looking wreath.
- Hang and you're done!

Love Birds Wreath
This spring-themed wreath features styrofoam love birds kissing in the center. It makes an adorable addition to your Easter decorations.
Accordion Leaf Wreath
Add a touch of spring to your front door by decorating a wooden wreath frame with paper leaves and flowers in an array of pastels shades.
To make the leaves, cut a square out of your paper and fold it in half, keeping the fold on the left. Using your ruler and a X-Acto knife, create a triangle by cutting from the top left point to the lower right point. Starting at the bottom of the triangle, fold about ¼” and flip it over to repeat until you've created an accordion all the way to the tip of the triangle. Fold the accordion-folded paper in half and attach the two middle pieces together with a strip of double stick tape. Repeat the above steps with different size leaves and paper colors. Starting with the larger leaves, hot glue a few down on the bottom in different directions and layer smaller leaves on top. Finish it off by adding a few paper or faux flowers.
Seed Packet Wreath
Dust off some old flower and vegetable seed packets, and turn them into a colorful wreath that you can leave up well into the summer months.
Funnel Wreath
A wild bunch of flowers and greens gives a galvanized funnel a whole new look. Top tip: Keep it up all year and switch out the flowers as the seasons change.
