Easter morning is one of the sweetest days in the family calendar: baskets, chocolate, spring flowers and the excitement of an egg hunt in the garden. A pastel door hanger sets the mood for visiting grandparents, cousins and neighbours’ children, and lets everyone know the egg hunt is on. This design is soft and cheerful: candy-coloured stripes at the top, a white bunny with pink ears peeking over a fringe of green grass, four painted eggs hidden in the grass, and Hoppy Easter! in a friendly vintage script.
Pastel Stripes, Bunny and Eggs
This single-sided hanger measures 4.25 x 11 inches. The background is a very pale lavender. Just below the door hole, four horizontal stripes in pastel pink, baby blue, butter yellow and mint green run across the card like ribbon candy. The centre shows a cute white bunny with big pink ears and a nose, peeking out of a bright green grass fringe. Four pastel eggs, pink, yellow, blue and lilac, each with a white stripe, are tucked into the grass. Hoppy Easter! is written in purple Grand Hotel script, Egg hunt today · Hop on in in pink spaced capitals, and the family name The Robinsons in green below.
Uses Around Easter
The hanger has several jobs. It decorates the front door for the whole Easter weekend, welcomes family to Easter lunch, tells neighbours’ children where the egg hunt is, and makes a lovely backdrop for Easter morning photos. Hang it on the front door, the garden gate, or the door to the room where baskets are hidden.
Egg Hunt Planning Table
| Age group | Hiding places | Eggs per child |
|---|---|---|
| Toddlers (1-3) | In plain sight on grass | 6-8 |
| Preschool (3-5) | Behind pots, under low leaves | 8-10 |
| Kids (6-9) | In shrubs, on fence posts | 10-12 |
| Big kids (10+) | Tricky spots, clue trails | 12 or a golden egg |
Separate areas or colour-coded eggs for each age group keep the hunt fair and fun.
Personalising the Hanger
Change The Robinsons to your family name, or to Grandma’s house for a family gathering. Edit the egg hunt line with a time, such as Egg hunt at 10 am, or swap it for Easter lunch at 1 pm. Every line is an editable text box.
The Bunny and Eggs
The peeking bunny is a full-colour editable illustration; resize it or swap it for a chick or lamb from the editor’s library. The eggs are simple ovals with white stripes; recolour them to match real eggs your family dyed, or add more by copying one. The grass fringe is a group of triangles you can recolour or lengthen.
Changing the Pastel Palette
Pastels are the classic Easter colours. For a modern look, use a white background with sage and terracotta stripes; for a bright, playful look, use stronger colours like hot pink, sky blue and sunshine yellow. Change the stripes, eggs and headline colour together.
Bunny Signs for Spring Parties
The bunny and pastel stripes suit other spring events: a spring birthday party, a baby shower with a bunny theme (Some bunny is on the way), a preschool spring fair or a garden party. Change the headline to match.
Cutting the Easter Hanger With Kids Nearby
A dashed circle at the top shows where the doorknob hole goes, and a dashed slit shows the cut. Children can help decorate the hanger with stickers after an adult cuts it.
Printing Soft Pastels
Pastels print lightly and economically, but they need bright white card to look fresh. Download as a PDF and print at actual size on smooth cardstock. Laminate the hanger if it will hang outside, as spring showers are common.
Easter Crafts With the Hanger
Print copies with the family name line blank for an Easter craft session. Children write their own names, decorate the eggs with glitter or stickers, and hang their creations on bedroom doors. It is a simple activity for Easter holidays, Sunday school or a library story time.
Neighbourhood Egg Hunts
Some streets organise a neighbourhood egg hunt where participating houses hide eggs in their front gardens. A door hanger on each participating home shows children which gardens to search. Change the line to Eggs hidden here! and coordinate with neighbours.
Making Memories
Take a photo of the children by the door with the hanger each year. Over time, you will have a lovely record of how they have grown, with the same cheerful bunny watching over them.
Spring Basket Ideas
Pair the hanger with a basket of non-candy goodies, such as bubbles, chalk, seed packets, a picture book, or a small plush bunny. Many families now mix treats with small spring toys and activities for a healthier Easter morning.

Welcoming Easter Guests
Easter often brings extended family together for lunch. The hanger tells arriving guests they have the right house and sets a festive tone before they ring the bell. Add a small line for practical details, such as: Park on the street; come round to the garden, so guests know where to go.
Easter for Every Age
Teenagers may feel too old for egg hunts, but many enjoy a more challenging version with clues or a golden egg worth a prize. Adjust the hanger’s line to Golden egg hunt at noon to bring older children and even adults into the fun.
