When searching for Easter gifts, it’s easy to fall down the proverbial rabbit hole. The results, in three words: So. Much. Stuff. The good news is, a lot of it is really cool — albeit in the “You didn’t know you needed it” category.
Case in point: This ingenious Dash Express Egg Cooker that cooks up to seven eggs at a time — soft, hard-boiled, poached, even omelets. Plus, it’s available in an insanely cheerful, season-appropriate buttery yellow at Crate and Barrel or pastel aqua at Amazon.

Incredible Eggs
According to local entertaining expert Kimberly Schlegel Whitman, eggs hold special meaning: “They’re a symbol of hope, purity, luck and wealth — one of the few symbols in the world that carry only positive connotations, including rebirth.”
She raves about Ginori 1735’s collectible Oriente Italiano Eggs. “The tricky part is selecting the color you want. They are all so beautiful.”
Continuing on the egg theme, these adorable 100 percent recycled cartons come complete with everything you need to grow-your-own salsa, chili, pizza, or cocktail herb garden. For under $20, they just may be one of the cutest gifts ever.
For deviled egg aficionados, Williams Sonoma’s glazed porcelain platter is the ideal accompaniment to any weekend brunch. We also love Christofle’s silverplate flatware set, sleekly packaged in an egg-shaped stainless steel container.
On a more traditional note, L’Originale’s decadent emerald green glass caviar server is inspired by the iconic Faberge egg. Or add flair to any holiday table with Royal Limoges’s 24k gold-rimmed dessert/salad plates.
Easter Blooms
Beautiful florals are synonymous with the season. This intriguing glass caterpillar bud vase holds six mix-and-matchable, straight-from-the-garden single flowers.
For those with a bigger budget, Jay Strongwater’s Flower Objet is handset with hundreds of Swarovski crystals.
Want a bouquet that will last long after the Easter Bunny has hopped away? Online gifting company Urban Stems offers one-of-a-kind dried flower arrangements including The Essex, a mix of bleached hydrangeas, star flowers, and, yes, bunny tails.
Luxe Light
These slim tapers come in four Easter-perfect pastels. Made of solid paraffin, the 1/2″-diameter candles produce a beautifully consistent flame that burns without smoking or dripping.
Where to put them? Jonathan Adler’s acrylic Pompidou candleholder is a mix of 70s-inspired cool and modern design.
Each Glassbaby hand-blown glass candleholder is handcrafted by a team of six Seattle-based artisans. Available in a daily rotation of colors, seasonal choices include Hyacinth, Refresh, and Evensong. The company also donates $3 from every purchase to the Glassbaby Foundation, providing hope and healing to people, animals, and the planet.
Sweet Treats
From chocolate bunnies to marshmallow Peeps, Easter is known for its sweets. Sugarwish lets the lucky recipient choose their own goodies from literally hundreds of yummy candy, cookie, and popcorn flavors. Each custom gift comes in a festive robin’s egg blue box.
