15 Ways to Display Easter Eggs
Decorating with eggs for Easter is not a novel idea, but with some creative license you can add style and charm to your decor. Sometimes we get in a rut or stuck for new ideas to display our seasonal decor. Hopefully this will trigger some unique and interesting alternatives.
Decorative Bowl
Bowls full of seasonal babbles is always an easy holiday decor solution. Bowls come in a myriad of materials from ceramic to glass to metal and so on. Grab your favorite bowl and pile it high with Easter eggs. Voila! Instant Easter decor.
Glass Cloche
Glass cloches always create an air of mystery and allure to any decor tucked inside. Anything enclosed in a glass cloche instantly becomes more interesting and fabulous. Glass cloches come in different profiles and with different bases. Use a style which fits your decor aesthetic.
Wicker Basket
Natural baskets inject immediate texture and charming feels to home decor. Baskets give decor a relaxed and homey effect, which welcomes any type of decor. Depending on the basket you use to corral easter eggs, the woven piece can mingle with different decor styles.
Apothecary Jar
Just like glass cloches above, apothecary jars enclose items in glass with a “look at me” spotlight. Fill an apothecary jar with your favorite Easter eggs and they will become even more special. This is a prefect vessel to display a pretty collection of Easter eggs.
Wooden Crate
Wooden crates add texture and relaxed charm similar to woven baskets. Crates tend to have a larger footprint, creating a bigger impact display. Pile a crate high with eggs for a simple yet big impact display. You can add a filler in the bottom of the crate to stuff it, making eggs go further.
Dough Bowl
Dough bowls are another interior design secret weapon to create beautiful, trend forward displays. Vintage dough bowls are full of patina and charm, which adds depth to an Easter egg vignette. Once again eggs piled high against the rustic background of a dough bowl is an easy and relaxed decor accent.
Candle Stick Holder
Using a decor item in an unusual manner always elevates the display. An exceptional Easter egg perched on a candle stick holder adds a unique and lovely way to display special Easter egg decor. The unexpected adds a nice element of surprise.
Silver Tray
If you’re a vintage loving gal like myself, you will love the old world feels and classic look of decor placed on an elegant silver tray. Silver pieces add elegant and timeless vibes to decor and it’s a beautiful backdrop of pretty Easter eggs.
Vintage Tea Cup
Placing a pretty Easter egg on a dainty tea cup is an instant charming decor accent. You can find vintage tea cups at thrifts or simply shop your home, and use your own favorite mug or cup for a personal look. It’s the perfect stage for a perky Easter egg.
Decorative Urn
Urns add a stately presence and classic appeal to decor any time of year. Adding an Easter egg is a perfect seasonal decor accent with classic looks. Urn profiles add an eloquent foundation for an Easter egg to sit with style and class.
Egg Cup Holder
Ok, this may seem like an obvious one. Take all those egg cups out of the kitchen cabinets and use them as decor accents for prized Easter egg possessions. Let pieces in your home work double duty and get more value and use out of them.
Floral Vase
Vases aren’t only for flowers. Vases can also be used as an unexpected egg display pieces. I used vintage porcelain vases to display DIY floral eggs. No, the pun is not lost on me. You can see the full display in this recent post {Spring Easter Mantel Decor Styling}.
Egg Carton
An egg carton is another obvious display piece. A grocery store carton or a decorative ceramic piece all make a great foundation for a pretty egg display. It allows for an orderly presentation or a sequenced display. Of course the eggs can be display at random as well.
Garden Planter
Adding eggs to a planter adds an unexpected element of surprise. The vibe creates the effect of a traditional Easter egg hunt. Simply adding one focal point egg or an assortment for a scattered effect amplifies the fresh spring emotions in a garden container.
Tree Branches
Seasonal trees always add a whimsical feel to home interiors. By simply draping eggs on real or faux branches creates a great seasonal display. Tuck branches into a unique container and you have the makings for a fun and creative Easter egg decor piece.
This isn’t a comprehensive list by any means. Get creative and use unique pieces you already have at home to create an eye catching display for the holiday. Other options which come to mind include nests, troughs, and compotes, but the list is only limited to your imagination.
What’s Up with the Easter Egg?
Have you ever wondered what the heck do Easter eggs have to do with Easter anyway? The easter holiday is the most important and oldest festival of the Christian Church celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. So where do the eggs come in? Well my friends, it’s all about symbolism and honor.
Easter eggs primarily symbolize the resurrection of Jesus Christ, representing new life emerging from a sealed tomb. The hard shell represents the tomb, while breaking it symbolizes Christ rising from the dead. Beyond the religious meaning, eggs represent the general rebirth of nature in spring. The Easter holiday deserves the honor of proper Easter egg displays with all it symbolizes and represents.
