Upcycled St. Patrick’s Day DIY Ideas
Handpainted Lucky Sign – Quick and easy sign! Use up those pieces of scrap wood for this cute DIY project. And don’t even bother with finding a stencil… just freehand it!
Glitter Shamrock Garland – I made this St. Patrick’s Day garland a few years ago with some leftover burlap ribbon. Check out the tutorial for sources. This craft project made dollar store supplies look a little vintage.
Ireland in a Jar – This is an adorable twist on a fairy garden! So cute… and you can change it around for every season.
St. Patrick’s Day Wood Wreath – Sometimes simple is better! Take a close look… you can make this wreath fit every holiday and season also.
Glitter Shamrock Moss Art – This project adds a little glam to St. Patrick’s Day. Sometimes the simple projects are the best.
Lucky Vintage Playing Card Garland – Here’s another St. Patrick’s Day garland I made with cards from a vintage game. This is another super simple upcycled craft project. Nothing is glued so you could also use these vintage cards later for another event or holiday.
Four Leaf Clover Wreath – Simple but beautiful! I think I’m gonna hang this on my front door for the month of March!
Ombre Glitter Votives – Upcycle old jars with this tutorial. And that garland is pretty cute, too.
Paint Chip Banner – You can’t get much easier than this! Remember all those leftover green buttons from Christmas? Now is the time to use them!
Lucky Upcycled Tin Cans – Wouldn’t this upcycled cans look great with some flowers in them?
Green Ticket Lucky Garland – Another garland I made. (Yeah… I love making garlands… especially out of blank tickets!)
Bit of Luck Hand Stamped Necklace – OK, so this one’s not upcycled but it’s so cute I wanted to include it in the list.
St. Patrick’s Day Yarn Puff Garland – Got any leftover yarn? You could do this in different colors for any holiday or season.
$5.00 St. Patrick’s Day Wreath – Anika has a whole series of $5.00 wreaths for every occasion!
Shamrock Printable – Last minute St. Patrick’s Day decoration!
