Easter is a joyous weekend of decorating eggs, eating chocolate, and relaxing with family in balmy weather. Everything from the mood to the decor is vibrant, which makes it the perfect time to get a manicure that is just as cheery.
Now that our hands aren’t living in mittens, we’ve curated a list of Easter nails for all to marvel at. You’ll find bunnies, eggs, and floral accents painted on an array of pastel and bright nail polishes. Get screen-shotting, because you’ll want to get in a couple of these playful nail looks before spring is out.
Confetti Delight
This one is for Easter-candy lovers. The minimalist design features a baby pink base with a pastel yellow accent nail, plus a scattering of multicolored sprinkles. If you’re feeling up for it, try it at home using a small art brush to create those delicious sprinkles.
Cute Carrots

Not all of your nails have to match. That’s why we love this design, which includes orange French tips, tiny carrots, and an adorable bunny. The reason this manicure still feels cohesive despite its multiple designs is because the color palette is consistent throughout.
Floral French

Add dainty, multicolored flowers to your French manicure for the holiday. Use a dotting tool (you can get one from a beauty supply or craft store) to carefully create your petals.
Miffy Nails
We can’t think of a better bunny with which to decorate our nails than Sanrio’s character Miffy. Ask your nail artist to combine the design with a pink ombrè effect for a more eye-catching manicure.
Springtime Chrome
If you prefer a nail look for Easter that doesn’t involve bunnies and eggs, try this set, which includes a chrome base (one of this year’s biggest trends) and festive, pastel-colored stars.
Cheeky Chicks
Nail artist Zoe combines dried flowers with hand-painted Easter chicks. We can’t get enough of their pink cheeks.
Neon Bunny Ears

Interested in nail art that makes a subtler nod to the holiday? Try this look, which features a set of bunny ears that have a neon glow.
Pastel Squiggles
Easter nails can be abstract too. Re-create this squiggle manicure using five of your favorite polishes. Squiggle without regard — the beauty of this design is in its chaos.
