When I say Valentine’s Day, you think of hearts; When I mention Christmas, there’s a good chance visions of Santa Claus and an illuminated tree danced through your head. And for Easter there is, of course, the Easter bunny. Closely associated with the holiday since the 19th century, the Easter bunny is the deliverer of baskets filled with candies, toys, colorful eggs, and other goodies for children (and children at heart) celebrating the holiday in the United States.
As such, there might not be a better Easter nail design than the bunny rabbit. If you’re looking to celebrate the holiday on your fingertips, scroll on for 15 bunny nail art ideas, from intricate illustrations to hare-raising 3D art.
A Hop Through the Park
A backdrop of mushrooms, daisies, and cherries gives this 3D Miffy look big spring picnic energy. For a similar—albeit less technically intricate—mani, you could do the whole thing (flora and fauna) with nail stickers.
Easter Bonnet Realness
With bows, butterflies, and a hare and a lamb right out of an illustrated children’s classic, this mismatched set melds the classic and the modern. The proliferation of pearls adds a sophisticated touch.
Milky Miffy
The glossy base in this mani is situated somewhere between “milky” and “soap.” Regardless of where you think it falls, you must admit: It makes a canvas for builder gel Miffys.
On the Hunt

Bring the Easter egg hunt to your fingertips with pastel and speckled negative space nail art. The cuticle bunny accent nail is an adorable touch.
Good Eggs
For a speckled egg look that’s a slightly easier DIY, opt for the design all over two or three nails. Use a fine-lining nail art brush to add cute little rabbits to the tips of your remaining nails.
Be My Baby (Pink)
Baby pink and bunny rabbits just make sense. Add in raised swirls, rhinestone flowers, and a funky ’70s chrome star accent nail, and you’ve got a swoon-worthy coquette mani.
Bunnies & Bows
As if plaid French tips in blue and pink weren’t spring enough, nail artist Victoria added subtly chrome bows and cute bunny rabbits to this dainty manicure. It truly couldn’t be any more precious.
All That Junk

Victoria referred to this maximalist set as a “junk” manicure. Nail charms are a great way to get a hyper-realistic look; Go to a pro to ensure they’re properly affixed.
The Velveteen Rabbit
Nail artist Jeanette used a magnet and a paper clip (yes, really!) to create the bunny rabbit in this pink velvet manicure. She shared the process on her Instagram.
Sweet Melody
My Melody is right up there with Hello Kitty and Kuromi when it comes to Sanrio icons. An iridescent glitter base coat is the perfect backdrop for nail art featuring the kawaii character.
‘Tis the Season
With a mismatched French manicure, you can showcase a variety of spring motifs on your nails, including flowers, frogs, bows, clouds, and (of course) bunny rabbits.
Snap to It

I’m not sure if these little guys are supposed to be bunnies, kitties, or something else entirely, but I know one thing: They are beyond adorable. (And creative. Snap hair clip nail art? Genius.)
Think Pink
In this monochrome mismatched mani, an oversized rabbit serves as the star of the show, covering the entire (short) nail. Show this to your nail artist—and you should definitely leave this one to a pro—as maximalist mani inspo for a short set.
Ombrunny
Conversely, if you tend to err on the side of minimalism, an ombré manicure that fades from a neutral cuticle to a white tip will always be a chic option. Add a bunny rabbit for an Easter-y touch.
Blueberry Fields Forever
Why wear a blueberry milk manicure when you can wear a milky blueberry manicure? Add a cute little Miffy or two, and you’ve got nails that announce spring has sprung.
