Banner O' Luck

I have time to squeeze in one more St. Patrick's Day craft.  This time I used wooden shamrocks and the word Luck that I purchased from....wait for it....PYP!! Anyone that doesn't know what PYP means, it's Pick Your Plum, my new addiction (next to Pinterest of course).  Here is the raw product.

Anyhoo, I decided to modge podge different scrapbook paper on each letter of LUCK and paint the shamrocks green of course.  I drilled small holes and laced on the twine.  I tied a few coordinating fabric strips in between and it turned out CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!!!

Lucky Wreath

I don't have many (ok not really any) decorations for St. Patrick's Day. I really love making wreaths so I whipped this beauty up the other day.  Here is a mini-tutorial on how I did it.

I like to use foam wreaths for these projects.

Cut your fabric in 1 1/2 inch strips and wrap it around the wreath.

I try to overlap the fabric and use as little glue as possible because I don't like the look of it.

I cut out burlap diamonds to use as the banner.  I spelled out LUCK with scrabble letters and glued them on

Little Shamrocks from Pick Your Plum.  I decoupaged some cute scrapbook paper on it.

I made a variety of flowers.  Tutorials for these flowers are all over blogland, but I would be happy to provide a tutorial on them if anyone wants.

I love it up against my shabby green chair.  I will be linking to the following St. Patrick's Day linky party.

Woo Hoo, my lucky wreath was lucky enough to be featured on Someday Crafts!!  Thank You!!!

St. Patty's Day Sign

As a I mentioned in my last post....I LOVE PICK YOUR PLUM!  I bought these bare signs and decided to turn a couple into St. Patrick's Day decor.  I used a couple of different craft paint colors to get the green I liked and used vinyl I cut from my silhouette.  The image can be downloaded from their online store. 

I do hope all of your days are full of luck!!!
