Easter Decorations Tips

By Carter Thomas


What on Earth do those things have to do with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ?For instance, we will decorate for Thanksgiving, it passes and right away, we have to start decorating for Christmas. When Christmas is done, then it's New Years. After New years comes Valentine's Day and so on. By the time Easter comes, you have to spend even more money on Easter decorations. Some people are smart.

Many people are unaware of the fact that Easter is a celebration by both Christians and Pagans alike. They don't have to buy new decorations year after year because they can reuse the ones they already have. This can save a lot of money but you must store them properly or else you may find that by the time the new holiday gets here, your decorations are ruined and you need to go buy new ones.

A hare is much like a rabbit, only it is larger in size and a lot more rare. Since spring is a celebration of rebirth and new life, pagan families used to tell their children that a magic hare would come deliver them gifts on this special day. You can find many decorations for Easter or any other holiday for far less money than you would spend in any other store. If you want a lot of Easter decorations and you don't want to spend a lot, dollar stores are your best bet. You can even find the candy and Easter baskets and more, all your Easter, and any other holiday, needs for literally pennies on the dollar.

In Germany children would put nests of grass in their yard, believing that the Easter bunny would drop off colorful eggs and candy in their "baskets." You don't have to go all out. In fact, there is such as a thing as over-decorating. However, if you keep it to a minimum, you can decorate your entire house for cheap and your guests will love it.

Traditions evolve, much like old Santa Claus and hanging socks on the fire place, now it's much more commercialized and families hang nice handcrafted stockings that match a perfectly designed Christmas tree. Put your decorations inside and store them in a cool, dark place until the next year comes around. By keeping all your decorations like this, for every holiday, in their own special containers, soon, you won't have to buy another decoration ever again.
