10 Personalised Easter Ideas That'll Make Your Celebration Extra Special | Love from Seventeen NZ
Quick Answer
The best personalised Easter ideas in NZ go beyond chocolate — think laser-cut bamboo egg hunt markers ($26), personalised Easter tags from $12, and keepsake gifts the kids will love long after the eggs are eaten. Everything in our 2026 Easter Collection is made to order in our Southland studio.
Easter in NZ lands smack in the middle of autumn — golden light, cooler mornings, and a long weekend that feels made for family time. Whether you're planning an egg hunt in the back garden or looking for something a little more special than a supermarket basket, personalised touches turn a fun day into something genuinely memorable.
Here are ten ways to make Easter extra special this year, all made here in New Zealand from eco-friendly bamboo and acrylic.
1. Easter Egg Hunt Markers
If there's one thing that upgrades a backyard egg hunt from chaotic to truly magical, it's a set of personalised Easter Egg Hunt Markers. Laser-cut from bamboo and personalised with each child's name, they mark out individual hunting zones so there's no squabbling over who found what — just the good kind of excitement.
At $26 a set, they're also the kind of thing you'll bring out year after year, which makes them far better value than anything you'd grab off a shelf.
2. Personalised Portrait Easter Tag
New for 2026, the Portrait Easter Tag ($14) features a sweet illustrated bunny portrait with your child's name. Pop it on an Easter basket, attach it to a wrapped gift, or tie it to a little chocolate egg — it's the kind of detail that makes a simple gesture feel considered.
3. Personalised Hoppy Days Easter Tag
The Hoppy Days Easter Tag ($14) is exactly what it sounds like — cheerful, fun, and personalised with a name. Great for kids' Easter baskets, teacher gifts, or tying onto a homemade hot cross bun loaf for a neighbour. These little tags go a long way.
4. Personalised Heirloom Easter Tag
For something a little more timeless, the Heirloom Easter Tag ($14) has a classic, keepsake quality to it. The kind of thing you'd tuck away after Easter and find again in a memory box years later. It makes a gorgeous addition to a first Easter gift alongside a personalised keepsake box.
5. Personalised Wildflower Easter Tag
The Wildflower Easter Tag ($12) is the most affordable in the collection and still completely beautiful — delicate floral detailing laser-cut into bamboo with a name to make it personal. At $12, it's a lovely addition to a hamper or a simple gift for someone you want to think of at Easter without spending a lot.
6. Personalised Cotton Tail Easter Tag
The Cotton Tail Easter Tag ($14) features a fluffy bunny tail design that children especially love. It works beautifully tied to an Easter basket handle, or attached to a little wrapped treat. A favourite returning from our 2025 collection.
7. Personalised Easter Bow Tag
The Easter Bow Tag ($14) has a sweet, feminine feel — perfect for a little one's first Easter or as a gift tag for someone who appreciates the details. It pairs beautifully with a birth announcement plaque if you're celebrating a baby's first Easter this year.
8. Personalised Chick Me Out Easter Tag
A crowd favourite, the Chick Me Out Easter Tag ($14) is playful and fun — the name says it all. Great for kids with a sense of humour, or for a teacher gift that'll actually get a laugh. Personalised with a name and laser-cut from bamboo, it's a step up from a card without the price tag to match.
9. Use Easter Tags as Teacher Gifts
Easter is one of those moments where a small, thoughtful gesture for a teacher goes a really long way. A personalised Easter tag tied to a block of chocolate or a potted plant costs very little but shows you've made an effort. Because the tags are personalised with the child's name, they feel personal rather than generic — something teachers genuinely appreciate after a long term.
10. Celebrate a Baby's First Easter with a Keepsake
If this is your little one's first Easter, it deserves to be marked properly. A personalised Easter tag tied to their outfit or first Easter basket is a lovely photo moment. Pair it with a keepsake box to store the tag, a first photo, and any other little Easter treasures — something they'll love looking through when they're older.
Why Choose Personalised Easter Gifts?
They're made in NZ, shipped fast. Every piece in our Easter Collection is laser-cut to order in our Southland studio. No overseas warehouses, no mystery shipping timelines — just NZ-made quality, sent to you quickly.
They go beyond chocolate. Not every child (or adult) wants a sugar hit at Easter. Personalised bamboo gifts are a beautiful alternative — or a lovely addition — that feels intentional and special.
They last. Unlike chocolate, a personalised bamboo Easter tag, egg hunt marker, or keepsake will still be going strong at next Easter too. And the one after that.
When Should I Order for Easter Delivery?
Because everything is personalised and made to order, it's important to get your order in early. Orders for 2026 Easter delivery closed on Friday 27 March 2026. If you're reading this after that date and need something quickly, check out our Rush Order Service — we'll do our best to help.
For future reference: aim to order at least two weeks before Easter to allow for production and delivery across NZ. We make everything fresh to order, so the earlier the better.
