St. Patrick's day Ideas

Pot of gold

I did some more web surfing around blog-land and found some fun ideas for you to add a little Luck to your life this St. Patrick's day. I found a cute idea as a centerpiece for your party or as a place card for your table setting at Make and Takes. You could just write your guest name on the pot. You could even use black chalkboard paint to write names; that way you can reuse them.
Head over to Make and Takes for more detailed instructions.
