I found this idea by subscribing to mommysavers.com. Cut green peppers in half, dip them in green paint and make your own shamrock print painting! Sounded simple enough and I thought it'd be a fun holiday craft. Well, it was just okay. The peppers I got weren't the best shapes, both resembled flowers more than shamrocks. And it was rather difficult to get the pepper cut so flat that the print would be a solid shape. We still had fun with it.
My daughter decided to make them into purple flowers:
A few of our green pepper prints:
And my final project:
I think we'll try potato prints next time!
Lastly, I'll share this Irish Blessing that I love. Origin unknown, but some attribute it to St. Patrick.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
