St Patricks Day Kids Crafts

Use pressed shamrocks to decorate your St Patricks Day kids crafts.

What you'll need:

What to do:

1. Place freshly-picked clover leaves into the old phone book, towards the back. Arrange the leaves so that they're well spread out. Close the book and place more heavy books on top.
2. Wait about a month for the best results. Then carefully open the phone book and peel your pressed shamrocks off the pages.
3. Use them to decorate your Irish craft projects.

To make the card above, we cut the large dark green shape from a sheet of tissue paper and glued it onto a lighter green card, then arranged the pressed shamrocks over it and glued them on.

This Irish Greeting Card would look great with pressed shamrocks glued around it to frame it. Or you could frame this Irish Welcome Sign with pressed shamrocks. Think of your own ideas.
