Eco-Friendly Easter Decorating Ideas


By Laura Leiva|

As Easter approaches, it's the perfect time to embrace eco-friendly practices.

From decorations to activities, there are plenty of ways to reduce our environmental footprint while enjoying the holiday to its fullest!

Natural Elements Are Key

Opt for natural and reusable materials instead of purchasing plastic or disposable decorations.

Decorate with fresh flowers, potted plants, and homemade crafts crafted from recycled materials.

Egg cartons can be transformed into adorable flower vases or used as containers for Easter treats. Get creative with natural dyes made from beets, turmeric, and spinach to color your eggs, avoiding chemicals in traditional dyes.

A benefit of going more eco-friendly this Easter? The kids will enjoy hunting down materials and creating their very own décor to show off.

Eco-Friendly Egg Hunting

Consider hosting an eco-conscious Easter egg hunt using biodegradable eggs made from paper or bamboo fiber. An added benefit of these plant-based Easter eggs is they’re fully compostable!

After the hunt, encourage kids to trade in their found eggs for treats like fair-trade chocolates or homemade goodies over pre-packaged snacks.

Filling the Easter Basket

When it comes to Easter baskets, think outside the box and choose eco-friendly alternatives like reusable fabric bags or baskets made from sustainable materials. Fill them with organic candies, seeds for planting, or small gifts that promote sustainability and creativity. Fun ideas include cotton clothing, beeswax crayons, and second-hand plush toys.

By making mindful choices in our Easter decorations and activities, we can celebrate the holiday in a way that respects the planet and develops a deeper connection with the world around us!
