It’s easy to let St. Patrick’s Day pass by without a celebration. But the middle of March can be dreary as winter melts into spring. Take advantage of this cheery holiday and decorate your house with this festive green shamrock garland. The garland is easily made with glitter paper, construction paper, yarn, and glue. It’s a great craft project for kids.

Use scissors to cut them out. You can also use the clovers by themselves or the shields alone to create variety in your garland.
Attach each clover to the glitter background using a glue stick.
Attach the shamrocks to the yarn using glue. You can also punch holes and string the shamrocks on the yarn. You can see how we did that for our mermaid garland. You could also add a couple of felt leprechauns and felt Kawaii rainbows to garland.
