Skunk Hollow Craft Club - Shamrock Collages, Flowers & Shakes


This week at Craft Club, E. and I made more St. Pat's crafts. We started with these festive collages. (They would be fun to make for any holiday!) We adapted the original instructions a bit by gluing our torn-paper bits onto thin cardboard that we took from clothing boxes. We also used Mod-Podge instead of glue.

The photo below is of the pile of magazine pages E. tore out that had green on them - a collage in and of itself.


Paper shamrock flowers were next on the agenda. Eli's came out more shamrock-shaped than mine as he rounded his paper corners more.


And last but not least, Homemade Shamrock Shakes for snacktime! I didn't really have a recipe - just combined vanilla ice cream, some milk, a few drops of green food coloring and chopped Andes mints in the blender. Garnish with a whole Andes mint. Perfect for leprachauns of all sizes -
