About the St. Patrick’s Day Holiday

Did you know St. Patrick was actually not Irish? St. Patrick was British, who was captured by Irish pirates as a teen.  He lived in captivity in Ireland for quite a few years only to escape to France and eventually make it back to Britain.  While he was back home he studied to be a priest and on his own accord he returned to Ireland to establish Christianity. Later in life he served as a bishop.

Saint Patrick became revered as the patron Saint of Ireland. March 17th has been designated as St. Patrick’s day, which is believed to be the day of his death. It is celebrated in and out of Ireland as a religious and cultural holiday. Today we will honor the patron Saint with simple seasonal decor.

Decor

Glass Cloche

A glass cloche is a contained space which is the perfect footprint for a small seasonal touch. Green accents, organic pieces, and homespun items creates a small arrangement which gives a nod to the holiday.

Milk Glass

Vintage milk glass is a great decor accent with its milky white neutral color, which can mix and match with any decor aesthetic. Using collectibles for seasonal decor is a great way to stretch decor resources in a sustainable way.

Flowers

Florals are a great way to inject seasonal tones for any holiday. Either using Irish inspired flowers like Bells of Ireland or flower varieties in varied shades of green is an easy and stylish way to inject St. Patrick’s Day vibes.

Plants

Just like flowers, plants are a great decorating super power. Around the St. Patrick’s day holiday, dainty shamrock plants pop up and they are the perfect accent to freshen interior spaces and add a touch of seasonality, but any plants are a great foil.

Color Green

Green accents around the St. Patrick’s day holiday go a long way, whether they are Irish related or not. The proper arrangement and composition can provide the perfect vibes for the holiday in an understated manner.

Olio

There are many other muses you can use for the St. Patrick’s day holiday, including rainbows, leprechauns, the Patron Saint, pot of gold, gold coins, moss and more. Just use an edited hand with organic touches and you’ll have a lovely display.

Crafts & DIYs

Shamrock Topiaries

Topiaries are a favorite around here and always add freshness and a touch of magic. A shamrock shaped ivy topiary is an easy project with a Dollar Tree clover form.

As much as I love topiaries they can sometimes prove difficult to keep alive. Besides the clover might not necessarily be a shape you want to keep out all year long. A ribbon topiary is a crafty solution for a seasonal touch which can be stored easily.

Lucky Garland

Using scraps in my craft stash this Lucky banner came together in no time. I have included some supplies in the shopping section below for your convenience, if you’re so inclined to craft something similar.

Air-Clay Shamrock Charm

Shamrock Framed Art

Pretty frames are perfect for seasonal artwork. A shamrock themed artwork masterpiece is an easy piece to assemble with found objects. Thrifts, garage sales, flea markets, etc. are all great resources for charming, old picture frames.

Mixed Media Cards

Altered art media cards can easily be cobbled together with crafting scraps. These pieces are always a prefect combination of personal details with holiday inspiration. It’s an easy project, which can be as much or as little as you prefer.

Table Settings

Shamrock

A shamrock inspired table setting is the perfect push and pull of rustic and refined. The table has elegant touches with relaxed tones which makes for a jovial gathering.
