Crafty Easter Inspiration

Decorating for Easter has never been easier with this list of crafty holiday inspiration.

From baby animal cupcakes, elegant egg crafts and fun bunny banners, check out a few of my favorite decorations and treats.

Peep!  Yarn chicks my kids whipped up from tinfoil balls and scraps from our craft closet.

Ok, so Easter is really closing in now and the pressure is on.

That means it's time to color eggs and I'm not excited.

You see, coloring eggs has never been one of my favorite things to do.


As a kid, I think I loved it.

But as a grown up, not so much. I just hate the mess.

Your hands get covered in that indelible dye, not to mention everything else that it comes in contact with and the eggs never look the way they do on the package.

They're usually drippy and uneven, the stickers don't stay on and that wax crayon is too fat to work with.

The whole thing doesn't sit well with my perfectionist tendencies.

Springtime animals and Easter egg cupcakes - super kid friendly!

I figured there has got to be a better way.

So, this year, the kindergarten teacher in me went looking for some easy homemade versions and I was pleasantly surprised! 

There are a lot of great foolproof options out there, for really fabulous looking eggs, using stuff I bet you already have in your house like markers, tissue paper, glitter, buttons and paint.

Even better, there are tons of super simple and very crafty ways to decorate for Easter without eggs.

I've compiled an entire collection on Pinterest. Some are from other creators and some are my own DIYs.

Like my Wooden Easter Bunny Banner.

I adore this one, although it is a bit messy, kind of like those eggs, but much more elegant.

And it won't rot in three days.

Don't get me wrong, I still think that eggs are the quintessential Easter decor. 

I just like them prepared my way...and to have some staying power.

My Giant Designer Knock Offs fit the bill.
