I even think I might like to be like them when I grow up.
Not a single hijink has been planned.Originally, I was thinking it was too close to Easter this year and I would just by-pass all my green decorating and crafting attempts this time so as to not make myself crazy when I realized I only had 2 weeks afterwards to do Easter stuff..
But of course, seeing all the fun things that everyone else is doing (and being somewhat Irish and all) makes me want to participate this year, just a little bit.So rather than showing you all the fun and brilliant things that I’ve come up with this year for St. Paddy’s Day (of which, there are none), I thought I’d show you some of my favorite ideas from others, just in case you’re in the same boat as I am and you want to throw something together lickety-split.. Leprechaun Pee at The NY Melrose Family.. St. Paddy’s Day Sensory Bin from Hubby Made Me.. St. Patrick’s Day Lunchbox Laughs from.Kiki & Company..
Recycled Beer Bottle Goblets from Practically Functional.. Green-dyed carnations from.Irish Blessing Printable from.
A Step in the Journey.. St Patrick’s Rag Wreath by.
The Magic Of Ordinary Things.. Wine Cork Shamrock Stamp from Artzy Creations.Baby pumpkins fit anywhere, always look cute, and are really quick and easy.. I’ve been trying to find some fall wreaths to put in my windows but I couldn’t find any that I liked so I just glued some indian corn from the grocery store to some grapevine wreaths and used those.
It only took 5 minutes out of my day to make them and they actually do have that nice harvesty feel like I was looking for in a store-bought wreath.. Draping a garland and a banner over this old window frame hanging here really had a nice effect for about a 45 second investment of my time!.I don’t even remember readjusting the lamp shade as I was taking these pictures, but it seems like it’s moving in every one!
Just another little touch of imperfection around here!Migrating geese, roosters, weather-vanes in general, they just all give off a fallish vibe so they got to stay right where they were!
