If you’re a DIYer, the chances are very high that you’ve already got a stash of baker’s twine in your craft cupboard.

Mason jars are one of the DIY world’s magic tools. They’re versatile and functional and pretty all at the same time.

Nothings says Easter like white tulips, and nothing says “Quick & Easy DIY Project” like spray painting something and being done. Bonus: the end result is beautiful and perfectly seasonal.[found on decorchick}.

The idea of an Easter tree has been around for years – we’ve all seen eggs in a variety of colors and materials hanging from branches inside and out. But the idea of an Easter butterfly tree is a fresh spin off that old idea. This one is incredibly simple, involving paper butterflies hanging from twine off branches. I think the contrasting colored pot helps to make the whole decoration complete.{found on bhg}.

Paint some boards in spring-y Eastertime colors (they don’t necessarily have to all be pastels; throw in some deep hues for a more sophisticated look), then mount them on the back to a perpendicular board for stability. As a backdrop for other seasonal décor (think eggs and flowers), the boards are a simple and sure-fire way to spring your home into Easter.{found on site}.

Jelly beans are not only an edible sugary delight, they are also a perfectly colorful DIY decoration tool, especially on these cute candy topiaries. You’ll need a small terracotta pot (these have been painted watery white), a dowel, Styrofoam ball, and some glue. Glue the jelly beans directly onto the Styrofoam ball, and eventually you’ll have a perfect Easter topiary or two. Unless you eat all the jelly beans before you get to it, which will slow your project’s completion down substantially.[found on craftysisters}.

To make similar yarn egg garlands, blow up some smaller balloons into an egg shape. Blow up some balloons, then wrap colorful string around them. Coat with watered-down glue and let them dry. Then pop the balloon, pull it out, and there you go.

What kind of DIY roundup would this be if it didn’t include some sort of Easter paint chip decoration? This one is colorful and fun and, as with all DIY paint chip projects, very versatile to fit your style and color scheme. Each egg is two-tone, and the garland is strung with both the tops and bottoms of the eggs being darker and lighter. You could change up the look by choosing different gradients of one Easter color, or greys, or anything you’d like.{found on modernparentsmessykids}.

In case you’re feeling a little crunched for time, you’re in luck. Some DIY projects are able to look fantastic and only take about three minutes, and this happens to be one of them. All you need are a larger square glass vase, a smaller round vase (that will fit inside the square one), and a bunch of jelly beans. Put your fresh flowers into the smaller water-filled vase, set the whole thing into the square vase, and pour the jelly beans around the smaller vase. Instant color, festivity, and (if you’re into sneaking Easter candy) deliciousness.
