St. Patrick’s Day Projects

The red has been put away (ok not totally away because it’s my favorite color)….time to bring on the green.  St. Patrick’s Day is the next up on the holiday list. I shared some projects last year that I still love and thought you might too! 
More green posts are in the works.  For now- enjoy!


Easy St. Patrick’s Day girl t-shirt

Last week I shared an easy St. Patrick’s Day boy t-shirt.
Using the same steps, I created a girls shirt:

I used turquoise, pink and only added green for the dots on the i’s.   Just enough green to not get pinched.  :)   Favorite thing about these shirts? So simple and ridiculously quick.  Definitely doable in time for tomorrow.  And still cute!

I’ve had an extra busy week with a couple of guest posts-
Angel Face Designs let me share a zig zag headband tutorial on Monday.
And I am also sharing a little spring craft at Tidy Mom today.
Thanks to both Heather and Cheryl- they are fabulous!

St. Patrick’s Day Green Meals

If you follow me on Facebook, you know that for Valentine’s Day I made a red and pink breakfast and a red dinner.  My kids told me several times that it was the best Valentine’s Day EVER.    So for St. Patrick’s Day, I will be making some green food and making their day a little more fun.   A little food coloring goes a looong way.

Once upon a time, I made a green St. Patrick’s Day dinner. 
Look, I even have crummy photographic proof:

3 years ago…look at my little kids!

This year for dinner:
Irish Beef Stew
from Sherbet Blossoms
Irish Soda Bread from Redhead Recipes
Pesto Mashed Potatoes from Rachel Ray
(had the best mashed potatoes of my life at the Belagio in Las Vegas-
their Pesto Mashed Potatoes)

and a can of Sprite or 7 Up :)

Dessert

The Decorated Cookie’s plaid cookies
Created by Diane’s Mini Mint Shamrock Cheesecakes
or my Rainbow Rice Crispy Treats

I made a little card that I plan on putting at
each seat with reasons why I’m lucky they are mine.
