If you can't help but smile when you think about Easter, you're in good company. If you're religious, you know that, at its core, the holiday symbolizes hope and new beginnings.

Floral Easter Basket
Who needs a floral centerpiece when you have this stunner at your disposal? It has a decidedly spring vibe, and looks fantastic filled with with plain white eggs. Best of all, it'll last for years to come.
You only need two tubes of paint to create this pretty pastel centerpiece: a darker shade of pink and white. To create the ombre effect, simply mix the pink paint with varying amounts of white to finish off the other two jars.
Nothing says Easter quite like an overflowing basket of tulips, and we love that this piece of decor—which takes just five minutes to pull together—will last well into the spring season (assuming you use faux flowers).
This easy craft is proof that you can make something beautiful enough to display on your mantle of a handful of items—yarn, wood, and paint—easily found at Dollar Tree.
Change greenery from winter greens to lighter greenery and plants. Incorporate a few florals or live plants, whether fresh greenery or fresh flowers. Add a pop of color with thrifted art or home decor accessories. Use lighter fabrics and lighten the textures and layers around your home.
Arrange a selection of decorations on a table for the perfect Easter display. Add a pop of colour with eggs decorated with acrylic paint, pretty painted flowers and pastel coloured milk bottles... not forgetting the beautiful grass-effect bunny.
Choose a neutral palette for your walls and furniture to create a timeless look. Shades of white, cream, taupe, or gray work well on their own and look great when combined with other hues. Add pops of color through decorative accents and switch them out as you transition into the next season.
You don't need to be an expert crafter to tackle one of these DIY projects. Turn brown paper bags into adorable bunnies, brighten a woven basket with colorful pom-poms or cut and weave strips of cardstock. Or, challenge yourself by coating a basket in preserved moss or sewing strips of felt into a rainbow shape.
March is a good time to welcome the season of new beginnings with changes in your home decorations. Focus on a few design elements that you can easily refresh, such as color and texture. In spring, select pastel hues for your curtains, throw pillows, rugs, and sheets.
I LOVE doing my planters each year. The sight of flowers and plants is everything to your Spring porch. Flowers in cheerful, pretty colors are one of my favorite Spring porch decorating ideas and will help welcome any guest to your porch.
