Whether or not your ancestors were Irish it's fun to celebrate St Patrick's day with the traditional green of Shamrocks, good food, and decorations. St. Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland and was believed to have been born in what is now Scotland around 386. He is credited as using the three lobes of the Shamrock to teach the Holy Trinity. Today the plant is symbolic of the season and the shape can be used as coasters, place cards, place mats, or napkin rings. Use a clover plant as the centerpiece or any favorite greenery. Snakes and toads can also be used as decoration since St Patrick was also credited with driving them out of Ireland.

St Patrick's Day Crafts

  • Leprechaun Pony Bead Pattern
  • To a small baggie of Green Candy (jelly beans or the like) attach this poem with a small Shamrock graphic:
    The Leprechauns of Ireland
    Bring this special gift your way
    Its full of their shenanigans
    On this St. Patrick's Day.
    And along with all their mischief
    From this grumpy little group
    Comes a little something special
    A bag of Shamrock Poop!
  • Print out and fold an Origami Shamrock Box
  • An Irish Blessing
    May there always be work for your hands to do
    May your purse always hold a coin or two
    May the sun always shine on your windowpane
    May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain
    May the hand of a friend always be near you
    May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you!
