Speckled Easter egg nails
Created by @nailsbydanniimoore
Simple but effective, you can mimic the look of Cadbury's Mini Eggs with a few simple tools - and it always looks adorable.
Start with a pastel shade (or try stripes like Dannii), and then you can use a small nail art brush to make the speckles - it doesn't have to be too perfect! Finish with a matte topcoat for that frosted look.

Easter bunny nails

How cute are these? You'll need a very steady hand and a fine brush to give these a whirl, or perhaps you'll leave it to the professionals! But either way, we love the creamy colour story of these painted tips.

Spring floral nails

We love these simple-yet-effective designs, which can be achieved using a tiny dotting tool. Mix up your colours depending on your mood - for more of an Easter-themed look, stick to your pastels.
You can also use a tooth pick or even the end of a hair pin, and use a pale pink shade as your base.
