What Smart Easter Shoppers Know About Marshalls
A Throw Blanket Built for the Season Between Seasons
Spring is genuinely one of the harder seasons to dress a sofa or bed for — it’s too warm for heavy winter throws but the evenings still call for something lightweight. The SHABBY CHIC Bunny Belfort Stripe Whipstitch Reversible Throw at $24.99 fits the in-between quality of the season well. The reversible design gives it practical flexibility, and the whipstitch edge detail is a signature of the Shabby Chic aesthetic — it adds a handmade, artisan quality to the piece without looking rustic or rough. The bunny motif is subtle rather than literal, meaning this throw can plausibly stay on the couch past Easter and into the broader spring season without looking out of place.
Flocked Bunnies Are Having a Moment — Here’s Why
Flocked decorative objects have been trending in home decor for a few seasons now, driven largely by the texture-forward aesthetic that performs well on visual platforms. The RABBIT HILL FARM Flocked Moss Rabbit With Bow Decor, available at Marshalls for $12.99, fits directly into this trend. The flocked finish gives the rabbit a velvety, soft-focus appearance that photographs distinctly different from standard resin or ceramic figures. The moss green coloring ties it to the natural, organic design direction that’s been popular across the broader home decor market. The bow adds a seasonal detail without making the piece feel like a throwaway holiday item. At the price point, it functions as an accessible entry into the flocked decor trend without the commitment of a more expensive piece.
The Oversized Duck Statue That Works Indoors and Out
The MARTHA STEWART 20-inch Duck With Raincoat Statue at $49.99 is the largest single item in the current Marshalls Easter collection and the only one specifically designed for dual indoor and outdoor use. The duck figure, rendered in a raincoat appropriate to the spring season, is substantial enough to anchor a porch, garden path, or covered entryway. The Martha Stewart design sensibility keeps it from reading as purely kitschy — the proportions and finish are deliberate enough to function as a genuine decorative statement rather than a novelty item. At nearly fifty dollars, it’s a larger investment than most of the other arrivals, but the scale and weather-appropriate construction justify the price for shoppers looking to extend Easter decor to exterior spaces.
Wall Art That Taps Into a Classic Childhood Story
The MARMONT HILL INC 12×18 Velveteen Rabbit Oval Wall Art, priced at $29.99, draws on one of the most recognized children’s stories in the English-language canon. The Velveteen Rabbit, first published in 1922, has remained in continuous print and carries a strong nostalgic association for multiple generations of readers. As a piece of wall art, the oval format and illustrated style give it a vintage, storybook quality that works in a child’s room, reading nook, or hallway. Marmont Hill specializes in printed wall art and the production quality is generally consistent. The Easter connection is inherent — rabbits, velvet, and spring — but the literary reference elevates it above a standard seasonal print. This is the kind of piece that tends to stay up on the wall well past the holiday itself.
