Top of the Morning with These Lucky Saint Patrick’s Day Craft Projects

6b94e633761ace6766b559cb3a4b091b

While I’m not the kind of person who goes all out for Saint Patrick’s Day, there are plenty of people who do. And yes, there are people who do put up Saint Patrick’s Day decorations like the person above. Nevertheless, when Saint Patrick’s Day rolls around, you can bet that plenty of grade school children will be doing some type of craft project on the holiday. Decorating motifs usually consist of shamrocks, leprechauns, pots of gold, a Celtic cross, booze, green stuff, rainbows, and other things. And while there are Saint Patrick’s Day decorations available in stores, there are some people tend to make on their own, which I’ve seen on Pinterest. However, sometimes it was hard for me to find some of the DIY decor since a lot of Saint Patrick’s Day craft projects are aimed for children. This doesn’t surprise me. Yet, it kind of frustrates me because the craft projects I usually show are aimed for adults and consist of stuff one can make but use forever. So for your reading pleasure, I bring you a treasure trove of craft projects for Saint Patty’s Day.

  1. Grace your front door with this shamrock wreath of green.
0c57ca95a7ce7c9c39b229720f5a004f

Seems like you take a regular wreath and put some fake foliage and shamrocks on it. And you’re good to go.

2. These 4 leaf clover necklaces are bound to give you good luck.

0c8448f900e8745e85d8a53da672abc8

These two have some newsprint and a 4 leaf clover encased in a glass pendant. Appear to come in gold and bronze.

3. With this wreath, you can have both shamrocks and rainbows.

0dcea825a20912ed230ec165070df227

This one appears to be made from burlap and felt. And the rainbow appears in a banner.

4. Got some empty green bottles? Make some shamrock candle holders out of them.

0fe14848c4dc5258726f9c005bd52f47

Not sure whether these came from a craft store or beer case. Either way, they’ll be in the Saint Patrick’s Day spirit with shamrocks on them.

5. Spare flower pots always make great leprechaun hats.

0ff5a1e6286b4707100a1f00e7672945

Seems like this would be a great project for kids. But these nevertheless look quite cute if you ask me.

6. If you don’t want to get pinched on March 17, this headband is for you.

1f6fae1dcb82e05faeceecc66c862b99

This one seems rather simple to make. Just put some green shamrocks on it and craft stones and you’re good to go.

7. Curl up on the couch this Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock pillow.

1f40b2f9e13ed962129d972a65a3fcc0

Now your furniture won’t get pinched this Saint Patrick’s Day. Even if it’s a bright orange couch in your living room.

8. Cover your wreath with green and shamrock ribbons.

2b3185c9c154962646dbc6639460db8d

This is a yearn ribbon wreath of green. It has gold shamrocks at front. Still, it’s pretty.

9. If you aren’t a wreath person, you can always go with flowers.

1bde89b8e74ba56edab0a61d4f2c1f3e

Well, fake flowers that you might find in a cemetery anyway. Because most of the spring flowers aren’t out yet at least in my neck of the woods.

9. Store your Saint Patty’s Day decorations in this one of a kind crate.

2edcd3b505088c944a811d7f0ccdefff

Not sure if I could do that design. But as long as the crate was prebuilt at the store, I think I could paint it green.

10. A leprechaun hat bouquet always makes a great Saint Patrick’s Day centerpiece.

2f136adbbe334fb5720b052ad34c296d

Yes the flowers are fake. And I’m sure that’s a cut out flower pot. But if you’re someone who’s a repressed art major, this a great project for you.

11.For extra luck, grace your door this Saint Patrick’s Day with this rainbow wreath.

4ee794e19d5b205473cb037e15f015b1

This one is covered as a rainbow in ribbons. And covered in shamrock garlands. All in all, I think this is beautiful.

12. Nothing goes better in your home this Saint Patrick’s Day than this shamrock tree.

4ef9cce1b8ef961b5d17c6882fca0a7d

And the best part is, you don’t have to water it. Also. the shamrocks on this are so shiny.

14. Of course, you can always go with the conifer option.

5d4473116f7ed5503a01c726ec3954e7

Yes, this is another shamrock tree. However, this one has shamrocks all over it in a different variation.

15. If you want more leaves on your Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, this is the one for you.

6c9cee56a4fe311630571464992a4224

Sure the foliage may be fake and seem it’s straight from a cemetery. Yet, I do love the wooden shamrock on this one.

16. For a simpler Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, one won’t need to look further than this.

6f9e7ee0c43e46ff4850cd65695cc30a

This one is just a plain white wreath with some ribbon and shamrock decorations on them. Looks pretty doable compared to some of the other ones.

17. A shamrock hair clip like this is bound to have the luck of the Irish.

7b2f045c25f440617bf32331b75d7c76

This shamrock clip is made from different shades of green ribbon and a fake pearl. Nevertheless, it’s very pretty.

18. A shamrock wreath like this will always bring you luck at your front door.

8cff192e8045208b569f9ecca6c1a55d

This one is a 4 leaf clover wreath which is said to be made from cloth and coat hangers. Not sure what else.

19. Sometimes a cushion and ribbon wreath is all you need.

9f13cc1e218b759fed1c656987970d78

Well, not sure if these were scraps or cut out that way. But at any rate, it sure looks soft and cozy even if it’s not.

20. A green wreath of tulle like this is bound to give you luck.

34af040fde5ed8d08527525912c1e594

This one even has Luck spelled on here. And in a banner of shamrocks, too. Not sure if it would give you the luck of the Irish.

21. When in doubt a green wreath of spots will always suit your fancy.

43a7884eac884765273ba8349b3d7d70

You might have noticed that I have a lot of wreaths on this post for Saint Patrick’s Day. That may be so, but so does Pinterest.

22. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than wearing a green bow and a rainbow necklace.

46f1cf49ca60446c3ea651088badca75

Yes , these things are meant for little girls. But it’s in the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day so it goes on. Besides, they’re cute.

23. They say that a bag of gold at your front door is bound to give you good fortune.

48c2c5355c3eb4800f6199295c8138b4

Well, this one is filled with shamrocks and plastic gold coins. However, I doubt the leprechauns would be fooled by this one.

24. Those who don’t care for a shamrock wreath can always go with flowers.

66a314e4a212bc942487e01cc0b7a75b

Well, as long sa the flowers are green, white, and yellow. Oh, and the foliage consists of English ivy. Still, pretty.

25. For Saint Patty’s Day kisses, this sign will show everyone that you’re Irish.

69c52d585db594249bdd0d0de1e69af6

And this sign has plenty of kisses to go around. I’m sure this was painted on wood and put on a stand.

26. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than gracing your home with some wooden shamrocks on stands.

82da348da26891aa94031b016e63edb3

And they seem to come in different colors and patterns. The sparkly green one is my favorite out of these 3.

27. For Saint Patrick’s Day wreath, green and white always make a wonderful contrast.

91d6d4e222380db55c124618e12b70a1

This one is covered in white with flowers and shamrocks. And it’s held by a green polka dot ribbon. Great for any door on Saint Patrick’s Day.

28. If you want to get even more lucky on Saint Patrick’s Day, it helps if you put some shamrocks in a frame.

2c4b59babac54ec835adf34d14230fb1

Because you can never have enough shamrocks in shades of green for one frame. Some of these even have glitter on them.

29. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day with this leprechaun wreath.

93d2167152a8ad034d6b08faf79ef8a4

Sure it doesn’t show the whole leprechaun but it has a hat and legs. Wreath is also in the shape of a heart.

30. Add color to your Saint Patrick’s Day table with these rainbow wands.

482feabc4687b42725fa04d6d0a1149d

These make great toys for kids. And it also makes a great table centerpiece that you can use for years even when they get older.

31. Luck will always come this Saint Patrick’s Day when you have a large shamrock at your door.

514d84df9aacc02ad3895bfac52b4fe5

This one is said to be covered in green cloth scraps. But it has the word, “Lucky” at the center. Still, I like it.

32. When it comes to Saint Patrick’s Day wreaths, a rainbow one can’t go without shamrocks.

817bf5f82f09d1812f319abe591d516a

Yes, this is another rainbow wreath for Saint Patrick’s Day. But this one has shamrocks on the side unlike the previous one.

33. This Saint Patrick’s Day wreath is guaranteed to bring you luck in stripes.

888af32385fee453cabd2de607422801

I bet whoever made this used a lot of green and white ribbon. Still, I like the shamrock in the center though.

34. For the more rustic type on Saint Patrick’s Day, these blocks will suit your home just fine.

7ba91a5f4bb8a3a62d71cf6bef14b4b1

These consist of shamrocks, leprechaun beard and coat, leprechaun hat and shoes, and a pot of gold. And they’re all painted a dark green and white.

35. A tulle wreath like this on Saint Patrick’s Day will bring you a lot of luck.

57312cd4d2eb2059c9b42dce3f9eb990

Well, it’s my second tulle wreath of green on this post. But it’s made in a different variation than the previous one.

36. Celebrate this Saint Patrick’s Day with your very own leprechaun hat.

057766e0c8e4f6f0c3225c24add993a1

Has a headband to help you put it on and keep on your head. Yet, it’s touched with a green shamrock and a shiny belt buckle.

37. There’s bound to be a pot of gold on this rainbow wreath.

670544abfc33d863ce889a8e1aa54072

Sure the rainbow on this one is neverending. But at least there’s a pot of gold smack dab in the center.

38. A leprechaun hat like this comes in wooden blocks.

9453869d31b161d96d1c8171f3d98424

Nevertheless, it looks great on anyone’s table. But depending on whether these might be glued on together, some assembly may be required.

39. Those wanting the leprechaun’s pot of gold might want to set up a trap like this.

acb9bdd1a091b300177df281f8d8f72c

However, if you live in the Harry Potter universe, keep in mind that it’s a worthless endeavor. Because even if you do catch a leprechaun that leads you to his pot of gold, the gold will just disappear in a few hours anyway.

40. A golden shamrock is always a fine addition to any home on Saint Patrick’s Day.

9910f7796947a088201081f2454a081e

This shamrock is made from thumbtacks on a green background. However, before you do any thumbtack art, make sure it’s on a thick flat surface.

41. Store your golden goodies this Saint Patrick’s Day in this rainbow glitter vase.

b5f3ec6d84085e33eb37b3bb528058ce

Sure the gold in here is candy. But I do love the glittery rainbow on this thing. However, glitter glue does make a big mess as I remember correctly.

42. Be extra lucky this Saint Patrick’s Day with this lucky charm bracelet.

b7ef964515efc988f8145b1a6847eb4f

Because on a holiday like Saint Patrick’s Day, this kind of stuff has to exist. Includes horseshoes, rainbows, Irish flags, shamrocks, pots of gold, and a leprechaun.

43. If you got empty green bottles, put some green flowers in them.

bfd7b59e7d3be04f67e2bf6808d06728

Of course, you’ll have to make the flowers first. But these ones look very lovely.

44. This Saint Patrick’s Day, turn some old toilet paper rolls into leprechauns.

c2642b8c6a1b28b0d7af31ba2403a7eb

Sure this is more of kid’s project. But these are nevertheless adorable. I especially like the beards.

45. Grace your front door this Saint Patrick’s Day with a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

240d001bf5118568edfc96bf26582713

Well, it’s decorated with plastic coins and shamrocks. However, I think the rainbow is the best part of this.

46. Proclaim your Irishness this Saint Patrick’s Day with these blocks.

c63263b51badb77e0b0211b5736724ec

Well, I have to but block stuff somewhere in this post. And I might as well go with these.

47. Welcome visitors to your humble home this Saint Patrick’s Day with this block decoration.

aada4bb5e8d326dc113d41f482607715

Might not light up like previous ones I showed you on other posts. But it sure looks pretty to put on a mantle or buffet table.

48. Adorn your hair this Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock clip.

46506d0404bad3bd97ce10351776d2ab

The button is made from wood while the other shades of green are made from felt. Still, it’s cute.

49. An empty bottle of Irish cream always makes a great place for flowers.

3a537273f96cd1c2fb5bf282d591e214

And I’m sure this decoration would make a great centerpiece. Love the glitter and the shamrocks on this one though.

50. You can’t attend a Saint Patrick’s Day parade without a pair of pot of gold earrings.

d95b54c4059b097dda64eb479edfd356

I’m sure this isn’t for weak lobes like mine (as I learned the hard way). Still, you have to like the pots of gold on these.

51. A lucky lass on Saint Patrick’s Day always has shamrocks in her hair.

d883f835d32419dffbe7eeb5e917a74a

Yes, these are shamrocks on barettes. But these do look adorable even when not on someone’s hair.

52. Green flowers always go great near any fireplace.

daec52cc3d02239da0a783428f9c73ad

For some reason, I usually don’t see flowers as green. Probably because I’m more used seeing the green on the leaves and stems.

53. Show your love for the Irish this Saint Patrick’s Day with these shamrock heart hair clips.

daf0971859345b04811b4a136ad48e6f

Sure they may be better suited for young girls. But you have to admit, these are pretty adorable to say the least.

54. Nothing makes Irish eyes smile more than a green bauble wreath.

de04d4c746c439c05589db6d4736f948

Just to warn you, baubles are delicate things so be very careful not to drop any while handling them. Still, I do love the shamrock ribbon on this thing.

55. A sizeable hat makes a great trap for a leprechaun.

de4fddb7d44f0a220aedd624689da18a

Not sure what the hat is made of (which is possibly felt or construction paper). Still, I do like the twig ladder and the sign.

56. Celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day this year wearing a light up tutu of an Irish flag.

a4c0e802c26b9b263af14562a4132fb9

If it weren’t for the shamrock waistline, I’d swear this would be great for wearing at a football game at my old high school. Not that I would.

57. For Saint Patrick’s Day ceiling decorations, you can’t go wrong with a rainbow cloud.

df5f56c020010e79c589b92030371ee4

Well, I know this is more or less advertised as a birthday decoration. But since rainbows are associated with Saint Patrick’s Day, it goes on the post.

58. Nothing brings you in the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day than a tulle leprechaun wreath at your door.

df408b9cb5f5fabb2205bc1ad363b6bb

And to capture Irish gingerness, the wreath is primarily orange. But it does have a green hat and pipe.

59. Keep warm this Saint Patrick’s Day with this leprechaun hat beanie.

5720ef5e8c5a81e162dab7f51e430da3

Not sure what size this is supposed to be. But at any rate, I have to like the buckle on this one.

60. For those who view Saint Patrick’s Day as a sacred holiday, this wreath is for you.

e4fdea3433b27d1790e46581c4a3f94b

Well, I had to put some religious imagery on this post with a Celtic cross. Because it is seen as a religious holiday in Ireland because Saint Patrick is their patron saint.

61. You can’t attend the Saint Patrick’s Day parade without the appropriate top hat.

c3cc2eeb233ce0b3e5516469773cf3e4

Now this is a fancy hat to wear to a parade. Not sure if I’d want to wear that during a mugshot though.

62. Bring the lucky spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day to your home by hanging this shamrock tapestry.

ea4c1ed096545a3d67ddab9f4e3c3b19

Made of felt with 4 shamrocks on them and the words “Luck” with a horseshoe “U.” Still, you have to want to hang this on your wall.

63. If you’re lucky this Saint Patrick’s Day, then say it with pennies.

ef3836639722aab50f31d05df0befa19

Pennies: the only form of US currency you can use for craft projects. Because they’re totally worthless as US currency.

64. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day like rainbow trees.

SONY DSC

Sure rainbows might not lead you to a pot of gold. But I sure like these trees. Bet they’re fertilized with unicorn poop.

65. The best spot to put a pot of gold is on a rainbow table runner.

c28e573dc1c2d3e5536b6eeec376183a

If it were me, I’d just go with the runner that’s made of felt. After all, who doesn’t love rainbows?

66. For some Saint Patrick’s Day fun, you can’t do without a leprechaun peg doll as well as his rainbow bunting and pot of gold.

67. Light up your home on Saint Patrick’s Day with this shamrock glass block lamp.

f7301fa15dde8e1cf3a97a7585b6b619

68. With this costume, your little one will be the perfect little leprechaun.

fc74da415bce6d6740221d6537ad11c7

Sure it might lead to some embarrassing photo ops for your kid in the later years. But right now, they can’t really remember anyway.

69. On Saint Patrick’s Day, a wee Irish lass can’t go without her own pair of shoes.

5b3f4f82037ae999ca86e8dd9f3330d5

70. Don’t like wreaths? This leprechaun door hanging is just for you.

f244e90937c0c45678ac23322184016d

Well. it only shows the hat and legs. And the flowers are fake. But still, looks quite festive.

71. It’s not Saint Patrick’s Day unless you see a leprechaun on a wooden panel.

5d8b99840b8af5cf3f4c43693611cde7

Well, it might require some nailing a board to get the hat. But the leprechaun seems to have a smile on his face.

72. Got old wine bottles? Decorate them for Saint Patrick’s Day.

5a136043a61ad4835c329dc1cc6fe444

Well, while one bottle is unchanged, the other ones are painted green and decorated for Saint Patrick’s Day. One has a leprechaun belt.

73. Keep your little leprechaun warm this Saint Patrick’s Day with this little stocking cap.

35ebd51d36258d08b78dd35c115551cd

74. For Saint Patrick’s Day, you can’t raise a better glass than this one.

2d64077f789e8dc76c0b080f3920552c

Like the saying on this, “Kiss me, I’m drunk. I mean Irish.” Not sure if you’d want to drink with this one.

75. Nothing says Saint Patrick’s Day than a potted rainbow.

64e8f272e6b437fdc428eee82da55ea7

Well, it’s a pot of gold with a rainbow and cloud on top. This is so clever, creative, and cute.

76. On Saint Patrick’s Day, cuddle up with this little leprechaun doll.

ff6b50454df0b24a16ef0994b0ada504

This is a knitted leprechaun doll which is derived from a pattern. Nevertheless, this is adorable.

77. Go to the Saint Patrick’s Day this year with a feather in your hat.

30c053ff9fae940bc6a11d4e0096f996

Now this hat looks rather snazzy. Like the shamrock bow on this one. Wouldn’t want to be drunk wearing it though.

78. A glass block lamp like this can bring out a shiny shamrock.

42136802a2a13f6ee01503c3aeefb8c6

Yes, I know this is another glass block light. But this one has a ribbon and a shinier shamrock.

79. Bring the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day without this tulle rainbow cloud wreath.

il_570xN.427974287_j7wp

80. For a little boy and girl, these leprechaun hats are perfect match.

82. For extra luck, it can’t hurt to have a shamrock wall hanging with coins and watches.

57f428258d72a9c8c827183e2ed2f610

This is a wooden hanging of a dark green shamrock. The coins and watches are plastic, but they go well together.

83. Didn’t know you can make a leprechaun from a flower pot.

2cda050037c578aff5e95e2f926f5a03

Sure it may not have a beard and is wearing a knitted hat. Still, it so adorable that it makes your little heart melt.

84. A leprechaun hat is a great place for flowers.

Sure the carnations are fake and the pot is felt. But I think this is a nice Saint Patrick's Day arrangement.

92. Grace your home on Saint Patrick’s Day with these leprechaun shoes.

If you have small children, make sure that they're not upturned at the side of the house. Because the little one's might get upset if they've seen the Wizard of Oz.

93. For Saint Patrick’s Day, you can’t be unlucky with a shamrock of ribbon.
