The Variants of Easter Wall Decorations
When we need to decorate our house for a certain holiday, we first of all start to think about wall decorations. There are a great number of wall décor ideas for Halloween and Christmas, but the number of possible Easter decorations is a bit lower. So, let’s see how we can decorate the walls for Easter.
Colorful Bunny Garland
We use garlands for wall décor at almost all the holidays and there are many variants of garlands for Easter home decor. For example, you can make a garland with colorful bunnies and place it on an empty wall. It also looks nice if located above the mantelpiece.

Bunny Silhouette Poster
The images of bunnies are must-have for Easter home decorations. There are dozens of ways how they can be presented. A cute idea is to hang a bunny silhouette poster. Such posters are available in all possible colors, but we would advise to give preference to pastel colors as they are especially good for spring time.

Such topiary is usually made of artificial plastic eggs, which you can paint and decorate to your taste, a stick, which serves as a tree trunk, a vase or pot and additional decorations, which will make the topiary original. If you don’t want to make it yourself, you can buy it.

An Umbrella Décor
Instead of a wreath, you may also use an umbrella. Sounds strange, but looks very cute. Place plastic eggs, flowers, bunnies, chicks in it and finish the decoration with a colorful ribbon. If you use real flowers for such an umbrella design, it’s better to put their stems in water vials to keep them fresh longer.
