Easter preparations are in full swing and you can feel the air bursting with jubilation. After all, a day that commemorates Jesus’s resurrection from the dead needs to be one that glorifies joy and infuses a beam of hope in one and all.
The celebrations begin with attending church, exchanging gifts and rejoicing with loved ones. But there are some traditions so rooted to the festival that you can’t help but look forward to them. Like the Easter Egg hunt where families get together to look for hidden eggs. Or the regal Easter Feast with mashed potatoes, green beans, chocolate eggs and more.
But the onset of Easter is truly marked by the aesthetic home decorations. Bunny-themed table decor, baskets loaded with delectable chocolates, hand-painted eggs and of course, ethereal florals that take one’s breath away.
So if you’re looking to spruce up your space this Easter, try some exquisite floral arrangements that pay ode to the beautiful spirit of the festival.
Vintage French Basket Arrangement
It’s always great to start with the classics. Pick out a vintage egg collection basket, load it up with coloured wooden eggs, painted in soft hues and crown it with your favourite florals – Daffodils, Iris or Lily. Play around with the assortment by choosing contrasting florals that add a pop of vibrancr to your space.
The Mason Jar Bunch
On a day as special as Easter, upcycling always adds a special touch. Bring out the old mason jars, arrange them in a jute or metal basket and let your creativity flow. Arrange multi-coloured Tulips for a striking effect and an exquisite centrepiece is ready!
Egg Cup Floral Assortment
Bring out the egg cups and let them make for a pleasing decor corner. Place freshly painted eggs in. Get creative with the technique though – tie-dye, ombre or marble painting. For the final touches, use short blooms like Chamomile or Daisies.
Baby’s Breath Basket
An extremely common flower used for Easter decorations, it’s elegance lies in its simplicity. That also means there are myriad ways to bring this arrangement to life. Start simple, place them in a basket and spread it across different corners to infuse a joyous vibe to your home. Or decorate the basket with ribbons and surround it with statement eggs to transform it into an eye-catching decoration.
Blazing Orange Arrangement
Find inspiration in the bunny, a folkloric symbol of Easter. Start by picking out a sizeable fish bowl, fill it with slender bright orange carrots for a pleasing effect. Decorate the rim of the bowl with Hydrangeas and complement the colours with orange Tulips.
The Leafy Green Assortment
Who said you need to invest in new decor items when all you need are picks from your fridge. Choose a bulky cabbage or lettuce and transform it into an astonishing vase for your flower arrangements. Create a space in the centre and place your beloved flowers within – Daisies, Roses, Tulips and Daffodils.
The Candlelit Disposition
When candles up the awe quotient of any space why not make the most of them on Easter? Pick out different-sized and colour candles for maximum effect. And place them around an egg and jelly bean basket loaded with divine florals – Primrose, Viola, Tulip and Chrysanthemum.
Burst of Colour Basket
A day as joyous as Easter deserves all things vibrant. Simply pick out an old jute or metal basket and fill it up with a variety of florals whose colours complement one another. Pink Roses and White Daffodils or Purple Tulips and Yellow Gerbera. Or make a whole new combination to kickstart that Easter aura.
