Easy, Inexpensive St. Pat's Decor

These are really simple, inexpensive ideas for St. Pat's decor. First up, I'll show you the supplies I used.



Window Clings: Dollar Tree $1
Shamrocks (10 in a bag): Dollar Tree $1
Mini Clothespins: Hob Lob $2.99 (even cheaper if you use a 40% off coupon)
Natural Jute: Hob Lob $3.29 (even cheaper if you use a 40% off coupon)

TOTAL COST: $8.28

I simply attached the shamrocks to a piece of twine with the mini clothespins to make a garland for my mantle. Couldn't be easier!


I also simply taped one of the shamrocks to a plate for an easy (temporary) decoration.


Next, I placed some window clings on a plate. So easy it's almost embarrassing. : )



The window clings come right off when the holiday is over. I just store them between the plastic sheets they came in. See how easy they come off?


Here's some pics of the finished products.






Here's a close up of the garland. That little plastic shamrock plate also came from Dollar Tree.


And that's it! I'm trying to get a home tour up soon. Next, I'll post about my Easter decor. Thanks for visiting! I'm joining 320 sycamore blog for the "Under $10 in under 1 hour" party.
