Easter Florals DIY Inspiration for Arrangements & Wreaths

March 27, 2023

Are you looking for Easter florals DIY inspiration that will wow guests to your door and home this Spring? Holly Hills Lane has ideas galore for floral arrangements, wreaths, and Easter centerpieces (soon). Using the best of artificial and fresh florals, and just adding a little pizazz to an ordinary container, we’re bringing you all the Spring Vibes.

Creating a beautiful floral arrangement for your wall or door requires just a little bit of inspiration. Depending on your location, seasonal fresh cuts are always my favorite but with an exposed front door, I often have to rely on the sturdiness of artificial plants and flowers. In the images pictured above I color-coordinated artificial sprigs of gypso, lavender and eucalyptus purchased at Michael’s. But the pièce de résistance is my handmade Flopsy & Family Farm Easter Flowers sign. 

For those who have their own laser cutter, it’s easy to upscale an ordinary container. In this case, I used both a tobacco basket (pictured left) and a flat-backed wall basket (pictured right) and added some panache with a custom mini-size. If you don’t own a laser cutter, I offer my signs ready-to-use on my Etsy shop, for use with either type of basket/container. One hangs from twine (which can then later be used as an ornament) and the other comes with two additional drilled holes for attaching to any type of basket.

Flat Backed Wall-Hanging Baskets

This Easter florals DIY is self-explanatory, but if you’d like to use a tobacco basket (or even a small barn door or window frame) instead of a traditional wall-hanging basket for your flowers, you’ll need to purchase a wreath ring and some floral wire. Whereas with the basket you attached your sign directly to the basket, other variations will require you to hang the tag within the floral arrangement.

Instead of attaching your sign to the actual basket, you will hang it from the ring, while hiding the twine behind the flowers. 

You can find:

  • A 12″ Hanging Wall Basket at Michaels for $14.99 /OR/
  • A 15×12″ Tobacco Basket from Walmart for $8.88 (Online)
  • The Flopsy & Family Farm Easter Flowers Mini Sign on Etsy
  • Floral Ring (If you’re using a Tobacco Basket, Barn Door or Window Frame)
  • Floral Wire (If you’re using a Floral Ring)

With all the new visitors to my shop this holiday, With all the new visitors to my shop this holiday, I realized it’s probably a good idea to reintroduce myself to those of you who haven’t met me yet;) I’m Jen Bell (@thejenbell) and this is my mad scientist laboratory. 

I’m an illustrator who ❤️‘s to translate my hand drawn concepts into items that bring joy to people’s lives. During the holidays, this means ornaments!

Enamored with Christmas tree ornaments since I was a small child, my family will tell you I’ve been making my own since I was a wee little Curlybell. But in 2016 I began professionally offering my creations to the public. In addition to my original pieces, I enjoy repurposing architectural salvage and reclaimed wood both for ornament and art making:) (Be sure to check out my mushrooms and finials!)

It’s an honor to be part of your family’s traditions. There’s nothing that brings me greater joy than knowing my creations get unboxed and hung on your tree or mantle. I can wait to make something magical for you:) This year if you see anything you like on here or my Etsy shop, I accept VENMO & Zelle and if you DM me your username and what you’d like, I’ll forward you an invoice;) And thank you for continuing to support my dreams.❤️❤️❤️

The most unceremonious product drop ever for the f The most unceremonious product drop ever for the first of many new ornaments I’m releasing for Christmas 2023. Not the pomp & circumstance I was planning but it’s time to get my jingle a’jammin’. This 5-layer, wooden bauble is my love letter to the Southern NJ town that helped put my ornaments on the map, #Pitman, thanks to @gwynglassart & @glass.gwyn ❤️. To order yours, and receive free delivery & an engraved message of your choice on the back, DM me your address and VENMO handle by November 30! I’ll forward you an invoice & deliver to your door by the first week of December. I can also do COD and credit card upon delivery. $30 each or 2 for $50.

Later this week I’ll be releasing a larger catalog with order form (I’m bypassing Etsy & Facebook this year for my local friends), but save a spot on the tree for your Pitman Water Tower today!
