Our grandchildren enjoyed making the leaf wreaths last fall.
So, I thought that I would create a shamrock wreath for them to make to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.
This is a super easy craft.
Not much mess.
Not expensive.
Not too many melt downs. (As long as you have a glue stick for everybody!)
The grandkids loved that there were rainbow shamrocks for their wreath. They added a touch of humor and color.
And, they loved that!
Are you ready?
First, you will need to print up the circle base for shamrock wreath on green card stock. Cut it out.
Print up the shamrocks on regular green-colored paper. (Not card stock.) Rough cut around them. (If your grandchildren are small and their cutting skills are not developed, cut out the shamrocks for them. If your grandkids have cutting skills, let them cut out the shamrocks.)
Next, print up and cut out the rainbow shamrocks. (My grandchildren only put 2 rainbow shamrocks on their wreaths. Yours could add more if they so desired.)
Have the grandchildren smear glue from a glue stick on the back of the shamrock and put the shamrock on the circle. Continue gluing on shamrocks until the circle is completely filled.
Ta da! Your grandkids have made a lovely green St. Patrick’s Day wreath. They can put it on their bedroom door, a wall in their bedroom, or on their fridge at home.

Do your grandchildren live far away? (I feel your pain!) Download and save my PDF files and e-mail them to your grandkiddos.
Or, you could print them up and send them in the mail. Grandkids always love getting mail!.
Here’s wishing you a fabulous St. Patrick’s Day!
