Forget about traditional Easter bunnies and painted eggs this year – I’ve listed a few ideas here that are guaranteed to impress.

Easter’s just around the corner and you’re not in the mood for the same, typical decorations? Don’t worry. I’ve rummaged through the world of Easter decoration ideas from some of the furniture brands in our range and discovered stylish alternatives that’ll add variety to your spring decorations.

Repurposed Advent wreath

How about an Advent wreath that reinvents itself, for example? Simply swap the fir branches for fresh greenery, moss and flowers – and you have a unique decoration that’s sure to spark conversation.

Easter bouquets in statement vases

If you like eye-catching vases, pop an Easter bouquet in them and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. They bring colour and style to any room. Top tip: combine different types of flowers, branches and designs for a modern look.

Easter wreath for the ceiling

Hanging twig wreaths are the perfect basis to show off your pretty Easter decorations. They won’t go unnoticed and give your home a playful vibe.

A modern elevated arrangement

A tall bowl or cake plate sitting enthroned in the middle of your table will attract everyone’s attention. You can arrange it with candles, a delicate plant and a few decorative branches – in the style of an Advent wreath, but with a fresh twist. The height of the bowl is visually exciting because it rises elegantly above the table decoration and adds a special touch to your display.

Ideal for anyone who wants to play with highs and lows and add a modern touch to their decor.

Napkin art for your festive table setting

If you like it minimalist, all you need is a cloth napkin to add some festive flair. With a little folding technique and a bit of string you have the perfect alternative to the classic Easter bunnies and a stylish table decoration in no time at all.
