Ready or not, St. Patrick’s Day is on its way! In our town St. Patrick’s Day is some kind of a big deal. There’s a whole lot of dancing and green beer drinking and general leprechaun antics that go down every year. Maybe it’s for that reason, but I have to say that I’ve always loved St. Patrick’s Day! If nothing else it’s such a great excuse to celebrate. This year I whipped up these fun little straw toppers perfect for adorning everything from cocktails to milkshakes to iced Irish coffee. (Or green milk for the kiddos for that matter!)
You can make these sweet DIY shamrock straw toppers with the most basic of supplies. I use metallic green gift wrap (although construction paper would work just as well) and otherwise you just need some cute straws, a piece of cardstock, scissors and a pen or pencil. So easy! They’re the perfect way to add a festive punch of green to your St. Patty’s Day. Pop over to Momtastic for the how-to and happy shamrocking!
