The great thing about Easter crafts is that you don’t have to spend a fortune on supplies or make something overly complicated. These Easter decor ideas are so easy to DIY, but they still look fancy.

These Easter eggs are gorgeous, and if you already have watercolor paint at home, you’ll only spend a few bucks on the eggs.

These bunny topiaries look like an expensive piece of decor, but they’re so easy to make yourself using inexpensive supplies.

It’s a simple but gorgeous project.

Terracotta pots are the base of this craft, but when you see the little rabbit feet hanging over the side, it will make your heart melt. You’ll need a few things for this craft, such as a bunch of fake greenery, white pom poms, felt and a handful of other materials.

21. Pinecone Lilacs
Pinecones. Lilacs. What’s not to love? I adore the metal vase that is used in this tutorial, but I couldn’t seem to find an exact match. I did find some from Chumia that look great and another from Soyizom, which is equally nice.
The pinecones are easy enough to find outside (you can purchase some online if you don’t have pines nearby), and then a few fake stems and leaves will do the trick to finish this craft.
22. Flower Pot Bunnies
I love this cute flower pot idea because it’s so easy to make and you have a lot of options to choose from, too. You can paint the terracotta pots (like these) or buy colorful plastic ones (like these).
