Look, I’m not saying your front door is boring right now. But I’m also not NOT saying that.
Easter is coming, and if the inside of your house is decked out in pastels while your front door looks like it’s still stuck in November, we need to fix that immediately.
A good Easter wreath is basically your home’s way of saying, “Hey, we celebrate things here. Come on in.”
And the best part? You don’t need to be some kind of crafting wizard to pull this off. Most of these ideas use stuff you can grab from Dollar Tree, your backyard, or that one craft drawer everyone has but never opens.
Let’s get into it.
Classic Easter Egg Wreath
This is the one that started it all, and honestly, it still slaps.
Grab a styrofoam or grapevine wreath form, about 50-55 plastic Easter eggs, and your hot glue gun. Start gluing eggs all around the wreath, twisting them in different directions so they fit snugly together.
Pro tip: keep your glue gun on the cooler side. Too hot and it’ll melt the styrofoam, and nobody wants that kind of chaos on a Sunday afternoon.
You can go full rainbow, stick to soft pastels, or match your home’s color scheme. Total cost? Under $10 if you shop smart.
The Bunny Wreath (Because Obviously)
Nothing says Easter like a giant bunny face staring at your mailman.
You can go a few directions here. Dollar Tree sells bunny-shaped wreath forms that make the whole process stupid easy. Wrap one in raffia, burlap, or even a white feather boa for that fluffy bunny look.
Add some floppy ears made from fabric or felt, glue on some button eyes, and stick a pom-pom tail on the back. Done.
The feather boa version is honestly hilarious and adorable at the same time. Your neighbors will either love it or be deeply confused. Either way, you win.
Farmhouse-Style Burlap Wreath
If your home’s vibe is more “rustic charm” than “pastel explosion,” this one’s for you.
Start with a grapevine wreath base. Add some burlap ribbon, a few faux carrots (jute or felt ones work great), and tuck in some greenery.
A small moss bunny in the center ties the whole thing together. You can find these at Dollar Tree or Michael’s for a couple of bucks.
The key here is keeping things natural-looking. Think muted tones, textured materials, and that effortless “I threw this together but it looks amazing” energy.
Deco Mesh Easter Wreath
Okay, if you’ve spent any time on Pinterest or craft TikTok, you’ve seen these monsters.
Deco mesh wreaths are BIG. Like, literally big. They use oversized mesh ribbon paired with glittered eggs, bunny signs, and massive bows. They’re loud, proud, and visible from three houses down.
You’ll need a wire wreath frame, deco mesh in your chosen colors, pipe cleaners, and whatever Easter decorations speak to your soul.
These take a bit more time to assemble, but the payoff is huge. They’re basically the Times Square billboard of Easter decorations.
Floral Spring Wreath with an Easter Twist
This one is sneaky smart because it works for Easter AND the entire spring season.
Build a base with artificial tulips, daisies, lavender, or daffodils on a grapevine wreath. Then just tuck in a few Easter-specific touches like small eggs, a bird’s nest, or a tiny bunny figure.
When Easter’s over, pull off the eggs and bunny. Boom. You’ve got a spring wreath that lasts through May.
No need to make a whole new wreath every few weeks. Work smarter, not harder.
The Pom-Pom Wreath
This one is pure fun and honestly looks way more impressive than it has any right to.
Make or buy a bunch of colorful pom-poms (yarn pom-poms are easy to DIY) and glue them all around a foam wreath form. Add some felt bunny or chick cutouts if you want.
The result is this bright, textured, cheerful thing that makes people smile every time they walk past it.
This is also an awesome project to do with kids. They love making pom-poms, and you get free labor. Everybody wins.
Carrot Wreath
Yep. A wreath made of carrots. And before you roll your eyes, hear me out because this thing is actually adorable.
Use a grapevine wreath as your base. Attach faux carrots (burlap, jute, or felt) all around the wreath, green tops pointing outward. Add a burlap bow at the top.
Dollar Tree usually stocks bags of decorative carrots in the spring, so you can make this whole thing for less than the cost of a fancy coffee.
It’s quirky, it’s fun, and it screams Easter without being too on-the-nose.
Minimalist Modern Easter Wreath
Not everyone wants their front door looking like it was attacked by a craft store. No judgment, but if you prefer clean lines and simple vibes, this is your wreath.
Use an embroidery hoop or thin metal ring as your base. Add a small cluster of eucalyptus or greenery on one side, tuck in a few neutral-toned eggs (think white, cream, or speckled), and tie it with a simple ribbon.
That’s it. It’s elegant, understated, and very “I have my life together.”
Works great for modern farmhouse or Scandinavian-style homes.
Dollar Tree Easter Wreaths (Budget-Friendly Ideas)
Let’s be real. Not everyone wants to drop $40 on wreath supplies, and you absolutely don’t have to.
Here’s what you can do with mostly Dollar Tree supplies:
| Wreath Style | Key Dollar Tree Supplies | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Egg wreath | Plastic eggs, styrofoam wreath, hot glue | $5-7 |
| Bunny wreath | Bunny wreath form, feather boa or mop heads, buttons | $5-8 |
| Carrot wreath | Grapevine wreath, jute carrots, burlap ribbon | $5-7 |
| Floral wreath | Egg wreath form, faux flowers, moss | $6-10 |
| PEEPS wreath | Wire wreath form, Easter candy | $7-10 |
Some people have made gorgeous wreaths for as little as $5. It’s about creativity, not your credit card limit.
The “Happy Easter” Sign Wreath
Sometimes the simplest idea hits the hardest.
Take any wreath, literally any base wreath, and add a wooden sign that says “Happy Easter” or “Hello Spring” right in the center. Surround it with flowers, greenery, or ribbon.
You can paint the sign yourself or buy one pre-made. Either way, it gives the wreath a clear focal point and adds personality without a ton of extra effort.
Great for people who love the idea of a wreath but don’t want to spend three hours covered in hot glue.
Cross or Faith-Based Easter Wreath
For those who want their wreath to reflect the deeper meaning of Easter, a cross-centered wreath is a beautiful choice.
Attach a wooden or metal cross to the center of a grapevine or floral wreath. Frame it with white flowers, greenery, and maybe a dove ornament.
It’s simple, meaningful, and makes a quiet statement about what the holiday really means to you.
Some crafters also add elements like birds’ nests with eggs to symbolize new life and renewal. Really lovely stuff.
Where to Display Your Easter Wreath
Your front door is the obvious choice, but it’s not the only one.
Think about hanging one above your fireplace mantel, on a kitchen wall, in a dining room as a centerpiece backdrop, or even in a nursery for some seasonal fun.
A wreath on every door in the house might be overkill. But then again, it’s Easter. Go big or go home.
Quick Tips for Making Your Wreath Last
Before you go full crafting mode, here are some things to keep in mind:
Use wired ribbon for bows. It holds its shape way better than regular ribbon and makes you look like you know what you’re doing.
If your wreath is going outside, secure everything with hot glue AND floral wire. Wind is the enemy of wreath decorations. Double securing is not paranoia, it’s common sense.
Store your wreath in a large garbage bag when the season’s over. Keeps the dust off and prevents any delicate pieces from getting crushed.
And finally, start with what you already have. Old fabric scraps, leftover eggs from last year’s egg hunt, random silk flowers from that vase you never use. Some of the best wreaths come from stuff people already had lying around.
Go Make Something
Here’s the thing about Easter wreaths. They don’t have to be perfect.
A slightly lopsided bunny wreath that your kid helped you make? That’s better than anything you could buy at Target. A Dollar Tree creation that cost you seven bucks but makes you smile every time you come home? That’s the whole point.
So grab your hot glue gun, raid the Dollar Store, and make something fun. Your front door has been waiting all winter for this moment.
Happy crafting, and happy Easter.
