Spruce Up Your Home for Spring with Festive Easter Lighting: 3 Creative Ideas

The arrival of spring and the forthcoming Easter celebration present a wonderful opportunity to brighten your living spaces with lively spring adornments and colorful Easter decorations.

Fairy lights offer a variety of ways to enhance both indoor and outdoor spaces. Arrange several sets of pastel string lights throughout your home, as these complement window decorations and other Easter-themed ornaments. You might even explore the popular idea of setting up an Easter tree!

Here, we’ve shared three strategies to integrate Easter lights into your spring decor.

Decorate a Table or Mantel

Similar to how you embellish your mantel with Christmas lights in December, you can outline your fireplace with pastel Easter lights in spring. Allow the season to inspire a gentler, more subtle decorative approach.

Select lights with wire colors that integrate smoothly with the setting—white wire for a painted mantel or brown wire for wooden mantels. Gracefully drape the lights around some Easter-oriented decorations such as bunny figurines, silver or crystal candleholders, and a bowl of vibrant Easter eggs.

Add to the arrangement with a cheerful spring wreath or a delicate floral garland.

Enhance the Outdoors

You endured the cold to put up Christmas lights, so now with the warmer weather (and sunshine, perhaps), there’s even more incentive to festoon your home with Easter lights!

Easter lights, which are essentially Christmas lights in different colors, are ideal for hanging from eaves, wrapping around columns, decorating trees, and lining pathways.

With inflatable outdoor decorations available year-round, consider incorporating Easter inflatables into your exterior decor as well.

Add Novelty Lights

Novelty Easter lights, featuring amusing designs like decorated Easter eggs or brightly colored bunnies, can bring a delightful touch to your Easter decoration scheme.

Drape them along a buffet, down the middle of your serving table, or arrange them around your Easter baskets for a playful accent. You can even weave them through a pastel-hued wreath for a distinctive Easter decoration.

Spring is the ideal season for renewal and to celebrate a festive holiday. Whether pastel or vibrant, spring-colored lights help create an energetic ambiance for the season.
