Manicure for Easter 2024: 20 trending ideas for festive nail design
Easter celebrations often feature a bright white palette scattered with pale, pastel colors—an aesthetic that translates well to nails. Whether you prefer solid colors or nail art, neutral or bright hues, there are so many ways to weave Easter colors into your manicure. To keep it simple, you could opt for a classic French manicure in white or a pastel shade. To keep it seasonal, DIY daisy nails are a great idea. Meanwhile, if you want to lean into the rebirth concept, you can embrace one of the year's most popular motifs, the butterfly.
The point is, no matter your personality or typical nail style, if you want to rock an Easter manicure, there are plenty of ways to do so. Ahead, find 20 Easter nail ideas.
01 Milky Pastel 3D Butterfly Nails

How stunning are these sheer, cloudy pastel almond-shaped nails? From the ultra-subtle shade shift to the rhinestones and iridescent 3D butterfly accents, it's simply spring—and Easter—perfection.
Baby blue is forecasted to be as popular this spring as red was during fall and winter. Knock out two trends at once by opting for a baby blue French manicure with alternating daisy accents.
07 Classic Eggshell Details

White is classic and fresh for Easter, but we all know how tricky DIY white manicures can be.
