The Best Easy Easter Decoration Ideas for a Warm Farmhouse Feel

Spring is coming! If you live in the northern hemisphere like me, it still might be a few months before trees start budding and the daffodils start popping up, but in the meantime, I’ll certainly be planning and prepping my Easter springtime decorations for my little farmhouse.

Below, I’ve put together the BEST Easter home décor and decoration ideas that welcome in the brightness and freshness of Easter, all while keeping a rustic, cozy, and warm farmhouse feeling in mind.

As always, if you’re in a bit of a rush, you’ll find the Key Takeaways at the bottom of this blog post. And if you’re looking for more inspo for vintage modern farmhouse home decor, I’ve written all about it here!

I’ve also created a set of free printable Easter gift tags to add to small presents for your friends and family, which you can access here.

Let’s jump into it!


Wreaths with a Pastel Colour Scheme

Nothing adds rustic farmhouse charm like a simple wreath made from twigs or grapevine, pastel or neutral coloured faux eggs, and delicate flowers that mirror early spring-time blooms such as daffodils, crocus, bluebells, and snowdrops.

You can focus on a single colour palette such as this yellow-themed wreath.

Or go for the ephemeral quality of small, soft-coloured spring-time blooms.

Or, stray away from the flowers entirely and focus solely on a pastel egg wreath with a sprinkling of complimentary spring green foliage.

Whether you’re looking to DIY or buy a ready-made wreath, the possibilities are endless!


Wooden Bunny Decorations

Get creative with bunny-themed cutouts to place on mantels, side tables, bookshelves, or dining room centerpieces. The goal is to stick to rustic and warm materials, such as wood or felt that will really create a cohesive farmhouse feel in your home.

You can go as simple as buying wooden rabbit silhouettes (or cutting your own if you have the tools and know-how) and tying rustic twine or white bowties around their necks. Simple, minimalistic, and effective!

If you like the subtle look but still want to get a little more creative, take a look at these rabbit silhouettes with little painted faces.

Or maybe you’d like to add a touch of cuteness and humor with a little pompom tail on the back of a bunny cut out

Get creative with sizes, shapes, and colours. Whatever you choose, you can’t go wrong with bunny imagery when welcoming the Easter season and springtime.


Vintage Baskets

There is absolutely nothing more cottage cozy than a vintage farmhouse wicker basket. Sprinkle it with Easter and springtime themes, and you’re good to go!

Pair an antique basket with floral-themed faux eggs that recall the freshness and abundance of spring time.

Or line your basket with some floral fabric to add some whimsical cottage charm to your home décor.

Whether you thrift your baskets or buy new vintage-styled ones, these are the easiest and cutest additions to your farmhouse decor for the Easter season. Place them on side-tables, hang them up, or let your kiddos use them for Easter egg hunts. You can’t go wrong with this versatile item!


Farmhouse Table Cloths & Runners

Add that special touch to your Easter dinner table set up with colours and materials that evoke the gentleness of spring days and a cozy cottage feel.

Peruse your nearest thrift store for a pastel coloured gingham table cloth or runner – look for greens, blues, reds, pinks, and yellows! This delicate checkerboard fabric is the ultimate farmhouse pattern.

If you want to stick to a neutral colour, try a white table cloth with a lace or embroidered pattern on it – this design also depicts a cozy cottage home, just in time for spring.

Add rustic elements to your dining table using burlap and linen. Add some character to these neutral fabrics by getting creative with your place settings, like with this bunny napkin set up.

If you’re a farmhouse minimalist, you can also opt for a very simple and delicate pastel patterned table runner that blends perfectly into your cozy Easter atmosphere. This option also pairs beautifully with cream coloured linen.


Easter Table Centerpieces

Fill a wooden tray or wicker basket with pastel-painted or natural Easter eggs. Don’t forget to incorporate fresh flowers or greenery! A charming centerpiece will really complete your dining or coffee table.

Take a look at this candle holder circled by a floral garland. The burlap-lace fabric sets the tone for a warm and rustic setting.

Another rustic touch includes a wooden birdhouse style egg holder. Welcome in the emergence of spring with natural symbols like this.

Create a centerpiece from faux eggs and flowers, such as this neutral-toned wicker basket filled with spring greens and eggs.

Or implement rustic wood slices to hold a little floral egg arrangement!


Easter Themed Pillows

Switch out your day-to-day throw pillows with Easter-themed prints. Keep that cozy, farmhouse feel by incorporating soft and natural fabrics such as linen or cotton, and focus on imagery that evokes a cottage warmth.

These cottage folk-art styled pillows are a perfect example of rustic and warm living room additions!

Or add some character to a guest bedroom with a vintage-style rabbit illustration. Minimalist, but on-theme!

If you’re looking to add a splash of colour, you can’t go wrong with these adorable Easter patterns with the perfect spring-time colour palette!


Vintage-Style Ceramic Pitchers & Fresh Flowers

Ceramic pitchers with a vintage feel combined with fresh flowers like tulips, daffodils, and daisies are the perfect element to a fresh feeling cottage home. These arrangements will look lovely on your countertops, mantels, or tables.

Just look at the cottage cozy pattern on this pitcher!

If you’re looking for a more rustic pitcher style, take a look at this beautiful shape adorned with 2 bold stripes. I’m in love with the seasonal daffodils paired with that blue!

And sometimes no pattern at all speaks volumes – let the fresh cut flowers do the talking.


Easter-Themed Candle Arrangements

Create a charming, rustic Easter touch using candles of various colours and sizes for warm and cozy arrangements. These are the perfect size for coffee, side, and dinner tables, mantels, countertops, and shelves.

These folk-art inspired egg shaped candles are so creative and cute! The warm colours especially evoke spring warmth.

Explore combinations of rustic floral wreaths paired with candles – but of course remember to keep your arrangements safe from flames, like with this candle in a glass container.

Explore the power of coloured candles to match your existing Easter decor. Focus on pastel greens, blues, pinks, and yellows – all colours that are connected to the spring and Easter season.


Charming Easter Buntings or Flags

Play around with hanging fabric buntings with pastel-colored flags featuring florals and bunny or egg motifs across the fireplace, window frames or awnings. Choose soft, worn fabrics for a cozy cottage feel that still feels festive for Easter.

These floral pastel patterns are so beautiful! If you live somewhere where it’s warm enough to have a patio Easter dinner, consider this idea for your backyard decor.

Or get your DIY on and cut bunny silhouettes for an Easter bunting. Don’t forget the classic Easter colours and the pompom tails!

You can’t go wrong with another classic pastel pink and blue-patterned bunting to evoke springtime warmth!

Or to really bring home the rustic feel, try painting Easter symbols like bunnies, carrots, and eggs onto burlap or linen neutral-toned buntings.
