Shamrocks On The Brain!

Shamrock Suncatcher 

Easy Shamrock Cards

Felt Shamrock

Can it be? St. Patrick's Day and Spring already? It felt like Winter had settled in to stay (at least in my neck of the woods, Western Idaho). It rained today. And all the snow in my yard is finally melted. I could actually make out some green bits here and there. 

When I see green this early in the year it always makes me think of shamrocks, rainbows and leprechauns. Plus, I am a sucker for Lucky Charms. So I thought I would share a few shamrock crafts I found on the internet. Enjoy! May the luck of the Irish be with you!

Sometimes, you just need to play. Play with the kids, play with your food, play with some crafts or play outside. In my neck of the woods winter is dragging on and on and I feel like I just need to get out and play. Since the outdoors are not very friendly right now, I've collected a few crafts you can make with the kids to play with! Enjoy...and get your play on!
