After months of winter grays and bare landscapes, outdoor Easter decorations signal the official return of spring. The holiday brings a celebration of color and fresh beginnings with pastel hues and blooming florals while playful bunnies and decorative eggs transform outdoor spaces into cheerful, welcoming environments. Decorating outdoors from the front door to the porch to the lawn extends the Easter celebrations to anyone who passes by.
The key is to choose a décor that’s both charming and durable. Early spring weather can be unpredictable, which is why quality matters just as much as design. At Christmas in America, we offer professional, commercial-grade Easter decorations, ensuring vibrant color, weather resistance, and long-lasting beauty all throughout the season and year after year.
No matter the size of the space, outdoor Easter décor should feel festive, intentional, and built to last. Here’s a few tips on how to create a cohesive and eye-catching outdoor Easter display.
When to Decorate for Easter?
The timing for Easter decorations depends on personal preference, climate, and how long you want to enjoy the season. Here are a few popular approaches:
Post-Valentine’s Day
For those eager to move on from winter, Easter décor can go up shortly after Valentine’s Day. Late February is the perfect time to introduce soft pastels, greenery, and spring-themed accents. This approach works especially well in milder climates or for commercial spaces that want to extend the spring season as long as possible.
Early to Mid-March
This is the most common decorating window. By March, spring feels close enough to celebrate, and Easter décor looks right at home alongside budding trees and warmer temperatures. Decorating in March allows you to enjoy your display for several weeks without feeling early or rushed.
Palm Sunday
If you prefer a more traditional timeline, Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and is a meaningful moment to introduce Easter décor. This timing focuses on the spiritual significance of the holiday while still embracing seasonal beauty.
No matter when you decorate, the goal is to create an outdoor display that embraces the spring season.
Outdoor Décor for Easter
To create an impactful outdoor Easter display, combine statement pieces with softer seasonal accents. Here are a few décor elements that work together to bring texture, color, and creativity to any outdoor space:
1. Easter Fiberglass Statues
Easter statues are often the centerpiece of outdoor décor. Large-scale bunnies, decorative eggs, and spring characters bring a positive, playful energy to an open space.
Our commercial-grade Easter statues are specifically designed for outdoor use. Constructed from high-density fiberglass, these pieces are lightweight yet incredibly strong. The addition of UV-stabilized paint prevents fading, cracking, and discoloration, even when exposed to sunlight, wind, and early spring rain.
These fiberglass statues are built to last year after year, making them ideal on lawns or near entryways for homes, retail stores, churches, and public spaces.
2. Spring Wreaths for the Front Door
A spring wreath is one of the simplest yet most impactful ways to decorate for Easter. Typically hung on a front door, a Spring wreath is a lovely way to welcome in the fresh new season.
Look for designs featuring spring florals and vibrant or pastel colors. For outdoor use, choose an artificial wreath made with durable materials so that it can withstand changing temperatures and light moisture.
Wreaths also extend beyond the holiday, so they can be transitioned into late spring décor once Easter has passed.
3. Easter Tree Decorations
Christmas isn’t the only time you can decorate a tree. Transform your outdoor trees, shrubs, or large potted plants into an Easter tree! Hang the branches with pastel-colored eggs and spring-appropriate ornaments such as florals and Easter animals.
Decorating outdoor trees allows you to create a festive setup without cluttering walkways or entrances. It’s also a great option for commercial properties, parks, and churches looking to decorate expansively without crowding the ground space.
When selecting ornaments, choose materials designed for outdoor use to ensure they remain vibrant and intact throughout the season.
4. Infinity Lights
Infinity lights add a modern element to Easter décor. These illuminated pieces create the illusion of depth and movement, making them especially captivating to passersby.
While Infinity Lights are suitable for outdoor use, it’s important to note that they are not waterproof. To maintain their durability, place them under covered porches, awnings, or entryways where they’re protected from direct rain.
They pair beautifully with fiberglass statues, topiaries, or wreaths, offering a glowing accent that enhances the whole display.
5. Topiary Decorations
Topiary decorations are a timeless addition to outdoor décor year-round, and they are especially fun to incorporate into the garden at Easter time. These structured greenery pieces, made from durable plastic (PE/PVC), provide a beautiful, natural-looking accent without the need for watering, trimming, or seasonal replacement.
For Easter, bunny topiary & other designs serve as the perfect backdrop for more colorful accents. Their neutral green tones look elegant on a grassy lawn and allow brighter Easter elements to stand out.
For Easter, topiaries — both in classic shapes and Easter bunny-shaped — serve as the perfect backdrop for more colorful accents. Their neutral green tones look elegant on a grassy lawn and allow brighter Easter elements to stand out.
Because plastic topiaries require no maintenance, they’re ideal for both residential and commercial spaces, offering consistent beauty regardless of weather or season.
