Decorating for St. Patrick’s Day

Happy March! While I don’t generally do a ton of decorating for St. Patrick’s Day, I did more this year than I ever have, so I thought I’d share it with you!

I don’t even have a lot of actual St. Patrick’s Day pieces, but I gathered all the green pieces I had in my home and really highlighted those for the holiday. In the picture above, I swapped out the white cake stand I had as the centerpiece for this beautiful green one I had and then put a few pieces of antique depression glass on it. I also used a houseplant to add even more green and then just accented with white. I love how this turned out for our kitchen table!

This is one of the few things I have that I actually bought just for decorating for St. Patrick’s day. This little doorhanger is a whopping $1 from Dollar Tree.

I got this little banner on clearance last year, but it’s not even necessarily “St. Patrick’s Day” any green party banner would work!

I love this little towel ladder that Alex made for me. I have so many cute towels I want to display, but don’t want to get used, so this is the perfect solution! This towel is particularly special to me as it was stitched for me by my aunt. I layered it over a green hand towel I had to help make the green in the tea towel pop.

This is an example of how I really just looked around my house and pulled out anything that was green. A green hand towel, a green towel I purchased around Christmastime, and my green mason jar salt and pepper shakers.

I already had this little chalkboard with the mint green frame, so I used a green chalkboard pen to draw a clover, then I switched out the pink pitcher I had my utensils in to this bright green sequin vase, which I had with Christmas stuff.

This was a spring wreath I already had in storage. The little green berries are a perfect accent for St. Patrick’s Day. Plus this will probably stay up through all of spring.

I love my letterboards! It’s the perfect place to add a little festive saying without having to buy any additional seasonal signs or decor.

This little doorhanger is another Dollar Tree find!

I love to have a little doorknob hanger on the inside of my front door. I found this cute little guy at Hobby Lobby for 40% off.

This gold banner is something I picked up last year on clearance. (If you haven’t noticed, I like to shop after holidays for clearance items, pack them away and then use them the next year as something brand new!)

This is the regular chalkboard that I always have hanging in our living room. I just used a green chalkboard pen to write out my own St. Patrick’s Day design. I got the green chalkboard pen for a steal at the Dollar Tree!

I have had this little gold “lucky” sign for several years. I just paired it next to a green houseplant and a green candle and now it screams “St. Patrick’s Day!”

My other letterboard! I used my gold letters for this one. St. Patrick’s Day is a great excuse to pull out all of your gold stuff as well!

Bringing attention to your houseplants is a great way to feel festive for the holiday without buying a bunch of decor.

This coffee table display was just a couple of green candles I had on hand, paired with some vintage depression glass on my usual gold tray. Perfectly festive and free!

Do you decorate for St. Patrick’s Day? It can be as easy as rearranging a few items you already have to accentuate greens and golds. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
