Saint Patrick’s Day Mantel

The Dollar Store is one of the first places I stop to find simple decor for the holidays. I haven’t done much for Saint Patrick’s Day; in the past. When I was in the Dollar Tree I saw these cute glitter shamrocks. I knew I could whip up something cute out of these. SURPRISE…more banners. haha. Lately, I have been on a garland and banner kick. I don’t know why but it just works for me.

The shamrocks were a little heavy to hang as they were. There were essentially two shamrocks in one. The outside liner of one and then the interior smaller one. I first cut the string holding them together to get two separate shamrocks. I then took some burlap string and strung them together in the holes where they were previously tied together. I used a piece of my kid’s old sidewalk chalk as my spacer between each shamrock. Hey, sometimes you use what you got to get the job done. 😉 Well, I got done making the banner out of the smaller shamrocks and still had the bigger outlines of shamrocks left. So why not make another one? I made another banner the same way as the smaller shamrock one.

I kept one shamrock all in one piece to use to decorate. It’s not much, but again, keeping it simple until we move is the theme for holidays around here. I was able to get all this decor for under $6 thanks to the Dollar Tree store. I plan on doing some bargain shopping after Saint Patrick’s Day to find some more goodies on clearance.
