Colorful Egg Easter Wreath

Outdoor Easter decorations can be super easy to DIY!

1. Using an awl, poke a small hole at each end of 12 plastic eggs.
2. Cut ½ x 3-inch strips of patterned paper. Brush decoupage medium onto the back of a paper strip and apply to an egg, smoothing out the excess glue and air bubbles; repeat until egg is covered.
3. After all the eggs are covered, brush two thin coats of decoupage medium over them, letting them dry in between coats.
4. String the eggs onto a 16-gauge wire, allowing an extra inch of wire at each end.
5. Wrap one end around the other to form a wreath shape; cover wire ends with a pretty pastel ribbon and hang.

Jelly Bean Monogram

Add a touch of sweetness to your outdoor Easter decor! Instead of a wreath, hang a fun jelly bean monogram on your front door for spring.

1. Paint a papier-mâché letter (available at crafts stores) using acrylic paint. (For a single-color decoration, match the paint color to the jelly beans; if you want a multicolor decoration, mix pastel jelly beans and a single color of paint for the letter.)
2. Once the paint is dry, hot-glue the jelly beans to the front of the letter and let dry.
3. Hot-glue a ribbon to the back of the letter to create a hanging loop, and hang on your front door. Try hanging in a large window for a cute Easter window decoration.

Editor's Tip: To protect the candy and make the decoration last year after year, spray it with a clear-coat finish and let dry before hanging.

3. Gather the eggs at various lengths, and tie the ribbons together.

Birdcage Wreath

Transform a vintage birdcage into a stunning front door wreath. Fill with an arrangement of tulips and hydrangeas. Add willow branches, and attach to the door using a colorful ribbon.

Easter Egg Window Decorations

Transform your ordinary coffee filters into colorful Easter decorations for your windows.
