Easter is basically the harbinger of spring, and I will never not be grateful for it. After months of heavy winter, we finally get lighter colors, softer textures, and that fresh, happy mood that makes the whole house feel like it can breathe again. If you want to bring Easter decor into your home without committing to a full blown setup, an Easter tiered tray is such a simple way to do it. It works as part of a bigger seasonal decor for the house, or as a tiny, adorable touch in a little nook, on a kitchen island, coffee bar, coffee table, or anywhere you want a quick pop of spring.

When Is Easter This Year?
Easter Sunday 2026 is April 5, 2026
What are good themes for an Easter tiered tray?
If your brain goes blank the second you pull out your own tray, picking a theme first is the easiest way to make your easter tiered tray ideas look intentional. Choose one vibe, lock in a color scheme, then build around one anchor piece so you are not randomly placing stuff and trying to fix it after. Think of this as your first thing to decide, because it keeps your shopping convenience under control and helps you avoid buying a lot of fun stuff that does not actually go together.
Here are the best ideas for themes you can copy, mix, and customize.
Classic Easter Bunny and Eggs 🐰🥚
This is the sweet, traditional easter tray look. Start with one bunny sign or figurine as your focal point, then add easter eggs, a little bit of gingham, and a few small accents to fill gaps. It works great for tiered tray decor in an entryway, kitchen island, or a coffee table moment.
Pastel Spring Cottage 🌷🏡
Soft pink, mint, pale yellow, baby blue. This theme is basically Easter and spring. Use bright colors in a gentle way, add fresh flowers or faux florals, and keep the decor pieces light and airy. A white pitcher or two looks so cute here.
Neutral and Natural Elements 🌿🤍
If you like calm decor, go with creams, whites, light wood tones, and greenery. Cabbage green is a trending element in 2026, and looks so good here! Use a wooden tray or a wooden tiered tray base, add small greenery, dried florals, and soft fabrics. This style is a great addition if you want seasonal decor that blends with your home instead of shouting.
Modern Minimal Easter 🕊️✨
This is for people who hate clutter but still want holiday decor. Pick one clean sign, one bunny or egg detail, and keep the rest simple with whites, black accents, and very intentional spacing. The goal is visual interest without stuffing every inch of the tier trays.
Vintage Easter 🐇📬
Think old postcard colors, classic bunnies, and soft faded tones. Use antique looking signs, distressed finishes, and delicate florals. This is especially cute if you thrift and you love when decor pieces feel collected.
Farmhouse Easter 🌾🪵
Yes, farmhouse still does tiered tray decor, and it still looks adorable. Use wood beads, white pitchers, simple black lettering signs, and greenery. This theme also makes it easy to reuse pieces from last year and swap in a few new touches.
Whimsical Kids Easter 🍬🐣
This one is much fun for families. Think playful bunnies, candy colors, maybe a tiny easter bonnet detail, and cute little figures. Keep it styled by limiting your colors to two or three so it stays cohesive and not chaotic.
Easter Coffee Bar Theme ☕🐰
If you decorate a coffee bar, this theme is a crowd favorite. Add mugs, a small bunny sign, hot cocoa packets or spring coffee flavors, and a little spring floral stem. It is functional and cute, and it works even in a tiny nook.
Religious Easter Theme ✝️🕯️
If you want a more meaningful setup, use subtle crosses, scripture signs, lilies, and soft neutrals. Keep the pieces simple and let the message be the focal point.
Garden and Florals 🌸🪻
This is spring in a tray. Build around flowers first, then add eggs or bunnies as accents. Mix faux with fresh flowers if you want that just picked look. Great for anyone who loves a “freshly styled” vibe.
Bright and Colorful Maximalist 🌈🐥
If you love bold, go all in. Use saturated pastels, lots of layered signs, playful patterns, and a mix of textures. The trick is repeating colors across both levels so it still looks pulled together.
Budget Friendly Dollar Store Easter 💵🛒
A dollar store theme is totally doable and can look expensive if your palette is tight. Grab a couple of small seasonal pieces, then use filler like greenery, ribbon, or basic jars you already own. This is also perfect if you want to swap themes each different time without feeling guilty about extra cost.
How Do I Style an Easter Tiered Tray?
You will see from the gallery of trays featured below, that there are so many different styles and aesthetics you can go with for an Easter tray. Easy to swap out certain pieces to get a completely different feel, year to year.
Start with your own tray 🪵✨
Use what you already have, whether it is a wooden tiered tray, a white metal stand, or a simple wooden tray. If you want a new tiered tray, pick one that matches your everyday style so you can use it through the summer months and beyond.
Pick one anchor piece as the focal point 🐇🎀
Every easter tiered tray needs one “main character” item. That can be a bunny sign, a small wreath, a chunky bunny figurine, a big carrot, or a little “Happy Easter” block. Put your anchor piece toward the back so it frames everything else and gives you a clear focal point.
Build your bottom tier first 🧺🌿
The bottom tier is where you create depth. Use bigger decor pieces down there like a small pitcher, a stack of mini books, a canister, or a bigger bunny. Add small greenery around the base to make it look full without being crowded.
Add easter eggs and spring details 🥚🌸
This is the part that makes it instantly read as Easter. Scatter a few easter eggs, tuck in a floral stem, add a tiny chick, or a carrot bundle. Keep it intentional, not a plastic egg explosion.
Mix decorative items with “real life” pieces ☕🏡
If your tray is on a coffee bar, add a mug, a spoon holder, or a jar that actually holds something. If it is on a coffee table, add a candle or a mini vase. It keeps your easter decor items from feeling like a store display and makes the tray feel like it belongs in your home.
Repeat your color scheme for visual interest 🎨🐣
Choose 2 to 4 colors and repeat them across both levels. Pastels, bright colors, neutrals with natural elements, or farmhouse basics all work. The repeating color scheme is what makes tier tray decor look styled instead of random.
Style the top tier last 🐰🌿
The top tier should feel lighter. Use smaller pieces like mini bunnies, a tiny sign, a small plant, pepper shakers, or a little floral stem. Keep it balanced, and do not feel like you have to fill every inch.
Fill gaps without adding clutter 🌱✨
If you see empty spots, use tiny filler like small greenery, ribbon, beads, moss, or a small egg. This is the easiest way to make the whole thing look “finished” without adding extra decor pieces.
Shop smart if you need a refresh 🛍️🎯
If you want a couple new items, pick one or two updates, not a whole cart, so you avoid extra cost and your tray still looks like your favorite things, not a brand new personality.

FAQs: Easter Tiered Trays
Most trays look best with about 5–8 items total depending on size. If you feel like you keep adding “one more thing,” that’s your sign to stop.
Mini eggs, carrots, moss, tiny garlands, bead strands, small books, rolled napkins, and tiny florals work great. Filler is what makes everything look intentional instead of randomly placed.
Two-tier trays are the easiest to style and fit most spaces. Three-tier trays give more room, but they can look cluttered faster, so keep the pieces smaller and simpler.
Yes, and it looks so pretty. Use white bunnies, natural wood, cream florals, soft greenery, and a touch of light blue or blush if you want a tiny Easter pop.
