So why associate Easter only with rabbits?
Disassociate those two things!
You could do an egg-painting thing for an Easter instead...
hold a paint-brush (or do the thing where you hold the paintbrush in your mouth), color-splattered shirt/apron/background, basket of unpainted eggs...
Or go for chickens, which LAY the eggs. Not baby chicks, but grown chickens.
You could also do an egg-hunt thing, with a hand-held magnifying glass (because searching for the eggs) and a background of tall grass/spring flowers with some eggs hiding in it.
You could do "Easter hats/dresses" (fancy and frilly and pastel colors) and a spring-basket.
You could do an Easter where it's almost all knuffel-room items instead of avatars (and then you could reuse some of your old art, make it easy on yourself!).
(I would like to say, those shirts that are like off-shoulder t-shirts with a support strap and with the bunny on them.... I'd LOVE to see that style of a bunny show up as a pet/animal item... especially if it were in the back left background, where it could be hiding from the avatar.

Not enough bunny cuteness! >w<
I wonder what else could be associated with Easter... but all I can think of is cucumbers
Sheep/lamb? (

) (and we have a sheep set and a lot of horns to choose from....)
I like the idea with painting eggs theme.
(and I support the shirt bunny as pet item idea

)

You understand, I've never actually celebrated Easter, so this is only based off of what I see around that time of year.
But anyhow; chocolate seems to be a big thing too for Easter. You could even do one year with a big chocolate rabbit, and then the same rabbit with more and more bites taken out of it, and then one last item of a chocolate-smeared mouth.
/laughs at thought

I think Easter is a little more limited with themes than Christmas for example XD Even though Easter is more important in church, but whatever
Anyways, first thing to come to mind when thinking about Easter is:
bunnies, chickens (mainly baby chicks), eggs and painting them, buxus (at least in Poland we decorate our baskets with it, because it's evergreen)... lamb...
And flowers like tulips, crocuses, snowdrops, jonquils... Because Easter is about coming back to life... Gosh, this is hard QnQ *admires Firn* I'd quit a long time ago if I were you
Edit: and these thingies!

Yeah, but that's just two out of so many easter events with bunny themes! And there's so many colors you can put on eggs! Magenta, Teal, Bright Purple... basically any color XD

Mem, catkins are the part of the plant that forms that biological function; like saying 'petal' or 'stamen' kind of. The specific type of catkin you linked to is a "pussy willow" in English.

Each time around easter I think "I can't make even more bunny items, we have way too many already!".
I know we have a ton of Rabbit/ Bunny avatar items, but we don't have that many for rooms yet. We could have a background that's a field with rabbits scattered about, some cheesy looking rabbit figures type things, a cheesy lamp,a couple of decorative plates with rabbits on them, a chair shaped like a bunny, or just has a rabbit pattern on it,
Spoiler

I just found this while searching google and this is the weirdest thing ever and I love it <3
A couple of lawn ornament/sign/things
Spoiler


(I don't know if this is just an American thing or not but these are everywhere around Easter time.)
Plushies with this pattern
Spoiler

(Again, I don't know if this is just an American thing or not, but everyone I know had a plushie shaped just like this at some point, including me >>.).
Honestly, I wasn't even thinking about Easter when I made the "March Hare " suggestion, but since I'm on a roll here:
I really like the ideas Akili li had earlier. ^^
Easter for me and my family has mostly been a time when we got together and made crafts, like dying Easter eggs, making paper plate/cotton ball bunnies, and such. So how about a Easter Crafts theme one year, with fake paper bunny ears, a face mark items that looks like painted on bunny whiskers, a tie dyed shirt(to go with the whole egg dying theme.)
Honestly, I like how the spring events the past few years have been flower themed, but Memoriam mentioned earlier about cucumbers and that made me think, we don't have any vegetable items on the site. We could do that one year, with a farm background (For rooms and avi) and maybe a hold item thats a carrot of a basket of vegetables.
Speaking of flowers, I love all the flowers Memoriam mentioned, especially tulips, a background thats a field of tulips would be lovely. There's also Daisies, which I think is April birth flower. You can never have too many flowers items.
