Before we get to the photos, let me start by saying I’m not Irish. My husband, children and I have no Irish blood coursing through our veins. In the past, our St. Patrick’s Day celebration has usually consisted of trying to remember to wear something green and maybe turning the milk for our cereal green that morning.
This year, however, I’ve decided to not pass up the opportunity to let my family know how lucky I feel to have them in my life. Rather than focusing on the leprechauns and whatnot, I’m using it as a way to express my happiness in my good fortune…. them!
So, here is my official St. Patrick’s Day mantel:
Link parties I participate in: Tip Junkie, Someday Crafts, Tatertots & Jello, I Heart Naptime, Lolly Jane, Be Different Act Normal, Craftomaniac, Today’s Creative Blog, Flamingo Toes, Skip To My Lou, Thrifty Decor Chick

the pop of colors from the rainbow are fabulous! i like this, too, since i’m not irish either.
I have never been inspired to do a St. Pat’s day mantel-until now! The board made rainbow is absolutely genius! The pics, the clouds, the printables, the story behind it- really way too cute!
I just love your style! Would you be willing to link up your mantle to my Springtime Holiday Link Party going on now? I’d love to have your creativity! Thanks, Michelle
