Easter Outdoor Decor: 22 Cute Ways to Decorate Your Yard This Easter

Celebrate the spring holiday in style with these pretty looks.

Easter is probably my favorite holiday of the year - the sun is shining (with a bit of luck), blossoms are blooming, and there’s the promise of summer ahead. Everything feels fresh and new, and it’s a wonderful opportunity to get outdoors and throw a get-together to celebrate.

Whether you want to include an Easter egg hunt in your festivities or throw a charming lunch party, the spring garden is the perfect setting. And there are plenty of decorative ways to give it that extra boost to delight both adults and children alike.

“Easter is the perfect time to decorate your backyard to usher in spring and bring a bit of cheer.”

Even if you’re not planning a garden party, adding a little Easter outdoor decor to your porch or patio is still a lovely way to embrace the season for your own enjoyment. It doesn’t have to be expensive or overly time-consuming, either, and even small details can make a big difference in bringing a spring-like feel to a space.

1. Create an Easter Branch

An Easter branch makes an ideal centerpiece. Use whatever is breaking bud and showing fresh green leaves - often this is hawthorn or hazel. Add a few stems of forsythia for the sunny yellow blooms, or pussy willow for the soft buds. Pear blossom, if available, is also a good addition. Then you can decorate the stems as you wish - we used to blow and paint eggs and add loops of ribbon, but if you’re short on time, there are plenty of pretty decorations available online.
