St. Patrick's Day Home Decor

I enjoy having apothecary jars.  It is fun to have them out and to change the contents up every month or so.  I don't often have holiday treats in them, but when I do, my kids have been pretty good about not eating them if I promise them they can have it after the holiday.  They did really well with these.... until Dad started sneaking the gold chocolate coins.  Then it was a panicked free for all.  So funny.  I loved the combination of the gold and the green.  I found the green gumball mix at Orson Gygi's in Salt Lake, but you can also buy them online from various sources.

St. Patrick's Day blocks and board

I thought I would show the other side of the "My Sweethearts" blocks.  I really love that they work for two holidays/months!  This one is also on the How Does She Blog. 

I decided to take this concept and make it my "own"... I used a 9 inch by 24 inch board.  First I painted it white (probably not necessary), then mod podged 5 pieces of scrapbook paper on. 
Then I painted the "lucky" letters (from Hobby Lobby) and glued them on.  Next, I added vinyl and clips with ribbon, and a quick spritz of glitter spray.  Wahoo- a St. Patrick's holiday crafty board, nice and easy!
