St. Patrick's Day Garland

I posted a similar project for Valentine’s Day. I did a simple modification for St. Patrick’s Day. First, I created hearts with paper towel tubes (see my post for Valentine’s Day for directions).

Thread a pipe cleaner through the holes of the middle heart, creating a stem and a hanger. Once hearts are prepped, hot glue the 3 hearts together to form a shamrock. My little man attached the shamrocks to a ribbon, and then we hung it on our mantel.
