Hey there everyone! Happy Thursday! Can you believe St. Patrick’s Day is Monday … which means March is nearly half over … which means 2014 is flying by crazy quick. I need to get started on my Easter DIY projects! But before I get too far ahead of myself, I wanted to share this quick and easy DIY project with you – Mickey St. Patrick’s Day garland! When I say this one is easy, I really mean it. The toughest part is cutting out the shamrocks!

Supplies

Green construction paper
Gold glitter scrapbook paper
One inch Mickey head paper punch
Green embroidery thread
Scissors
Glue stick
Scotch Tape

Steps

Step 1: Print out the shamrock template onto your green construction paper. I found the shamrock on the Disney owned website Spoonful. Thank you, Spoonful! I then copied nine shamrocks onto one page, and saved that template for this project.

Step 2: Cut out the shamrocks.

Step 3: Punch out Mickey shapes using the paper punch. You will need the same number as you have shamrocks.

Step 4: Use the glue stick to attach one Mickey punch to the center of each shamrock.

Step 5: Tape the backs of the shamrocks (the side without the Mickey head) to the embroidery thread. I spaced mine about three inches inches apart.
