If you know me, you know I LOVE Spring; it’s my favorite season for fashion, food, and most of all: entertaining! Easter in particular is one of my favorite holidays, and this is the first year I’m hosting my very own Easter celebration for family and friends (eek!). Like so many of us, I’m busy and on a budget, so I’m sharing my easy and affordable Easter decor tips so you can be the host or hostess with the most-ess for less! Read on…

Easy Easter Centerpiece

Every Easter table needs a centerpiece, but you don’t need to go into full-blown florist mode or spend a ton to create something beautiful and impactful! My Easter centerpiece this year consists of a few things you may already have, accented with some inexpensive additions.

All you’ll need to create this easy diy Easter centerpiece are:

• A medium sized bowl (flat bottomed if possible; you can also use a plate with sides!)
• Three pillar candles of different heights
• Craft moss

Place the candles in the center of the bowl, then fill in the perimeter with craft moss. Accent with a few Easter figurines (not mandatory) and you’ve got a simple but chic centerpiece!

Easter Candy Dishes

These adorable gold bunny candy trays were an affordable Amazon find- and they are the perfect Easter home accent! You can even use them the whole year round as jewelry trays, so these Easter candy dishes do double duty! Shop this budget friendly Easter decor below:

This Easter candy bowl is another that I’ve had in my growing Easter decor collection for years (as exemplified by the small chip on this bunny’s ear). An affordable Target find, this bunny bowl only cost me about $10 when I purchased it! I’ve linked similar candy bowls below:

Cute Easter Wreath

I found this adorable Easter wreath at HomeGoods for only $15! I love that this Easter bunny wreath has pops of color, but it’s still rustic at the same time. I personally like hanging my holiday wreaths on an inside door to keep them looking fresh & less weathered for longer, plus I get to see them a lot more than if I put them on the front door!

Spring Candle Holders

These beautiful hummingbird candle holders were another HomeGoods find! When I saw these stunning glass candlesticks, I knew I had to have them. The delicate hand-blown details really blew me away- and they were $9.99 a piece! They really do look like they’d be way more pricey than they were and I love how they elevate my Easter decor without breaking the bank. Here’s some other affordable candle holders I’ve been loving:

Chic Easter Bunny Decor

I’ve had this Anthropologie bunny vase for 10+ years and I use it all year long- not just during Easter! It’s such a unique flower vase, and it’s a chic take on classic kid-centered Easter bunny decorations. Picking holiday decorations that don’t look too theme-y allows you to use them for more than one occasion, and it helps you get more mileage out of your money in the long run.

My last top tip for affordable holiday decorating is to look for holiday decor that goes with the general color scheme of your home and year-round decor; this way, decorating for holidays doesn’t have to involve a full decor overhaul. Swap an accent here or there for decor that’s festive, without draining you of time or money.

Elegant Easter Table Decor

I love creating holiday tablescapes that are elegant, chic, but also fun and not too stuffy! A beautiful Easter tablecloth elevates your everyday dinner table, but choosing easily washable table linens lets you relax about spills.

Simple placemats feel put together and are something you can use on multiple occasions like other holidays and birthdays. I personally like to go for a pretty single dinner plate, as opposed to a stack of salad, dinner, and dessert plates, because it feels more relaxed, but still impactful! You can easily swap the single dinner plate for a kid’s plate or even cute paper plates without throwing off the whole decor scheme.

Washable or disposable napkins are also a must for inevitable spills; I found these (originally placemats!) at the dollar store, and they actually work perfectly as napkins! I also found these unbelievably ADORABLE bunny napkins rings on Amazon for a great price, and they came in a set of 12 for hosting big parties!Shop my favorite Easter table decor below:

For glassware, I love sourcing affordable glasses from places like Target (where the pink glasses here are from!), Amazon, and even thrift stores! I love glassware that looks gathered together, but still chic. These little vintage espresso cups belonged to my great grandmother, and I’m repurposing them here as egg cups! You can even use the same glasses for other holidays, parties, weddings, and birthdays! Thrifting in particular is a great way to build a quality glassware collection that’s unique, budget-friendly, and can be passed down for generations. Shop my favorite affordable glassware below:

DIY Easter Placecards

Personalized place cards at a holiday table make for a meal that feels special, even if everything else is casual. I found these adorable paintable fillable Easter eggs on Amazon, and I thought they’d make the perfect place cards for my Easter table & be a cute party favor for guests!

The paintable fillable Easter eggs I got are made of cardboard, so they can easily be painted with acrylic paints, paint pens, or even drawn on with markers or crayons. I used some inexpensive acrylic paint and a sharpie pen to decorate mine.

I started off by applying a light coat of acrylic paint to each egg, then doing a speckle technique to achieve a softer variation of color. I wrote each guest’s name on the back side of the egg, and filled each with pastel M&M candies for a sweet little take-home treat!

These diy Easter place cards are super easy to make, and a fun Easter activity for kids too! Plus, you can personalize them to any decor style and even keep them for reuse in years to come!
