If you know us at all, you know that holidays are a big deal in our house and just because St. Patrick's day is a fairly small holiday that is often passed over doesn't mean you can't decorate! There are 'things and stuff' that can be done for even the most obscure holiday's!
We like to decorate our bannister for the holidays. It is easy to do, doesn't take a lot of time or energy, but it makes the entry fun and inviting. I just used stuff this year that I picked up at the grocery store.
A green glitter derby, a feather boa and mardi-gras beads combine with a variety of ribbon to create a St. Patrick's day garland.
When we remodeled our kitchen this year (I know... I haven't posted the new kitchen yet) I put in cabinets above the new wet bar that could display all of our fun holiday theme collections. Everything in the cupboard is not St. Patrick's day but it is amazing when you start looking around how many things you own that can be combined into a 'themed' collection.
Lighting the inside of the cabinets and using glass shelves allows you to showcase a collection.
Yes, these are really Christmas angels... I just missed them when I was cleaning up after the holiday. Now they are St. Patty's angels! After all, the medallion says "Kiss me, I'm Irish". Now you can kiss me under the mistletoe!
Shamrock's on the front porch welcome visitors! The large shamrock is cut from Masonite, the smaller shamrocks are from the dollar store. I painted the spots on them to make them look like they all go together.May the luck of the Irish be yours!
