St Patricks Day Kids Crafts

St Patricks Day Crafts Supplies Needed

To make the stamp I used a heart shaped piece of wood and a piece from a building block set.

Using a glue gun I attached the orange rectangle to the heart to use as a handle.

You can also make heart shapes using a potato, sponge or even styrofoam.

Pour some green paint into a container.

Rub the stamp into the paint making sure to coat it well.

If you have too much paint on the stamp you can rub some off either in the container or on a piece of scrap paper.

Take the paint coated stamp and push it against the paper.

This forms the first heart shaped part of your clover.

Raise the stamp straight up, trying not to move it while lifting.

If the stamp didn't transfer the paint well enough, you can carefully lower the stamp back over the same spot.

Relaod the stamp with paint.

Place your second heart so that the point of the heart is almost touching the point of the first shape.

Think of the first heart as being at the 12 oclock position on a clock and the second heart being at the 9 oclock position.

Reload the stamp with paint.

Place this heart shape so that the points are touching.

This heart would be in the three oclock position on a clock.

Almost done, just one more easy step.

To finish off your clovers you need to add a stem.

Dip a paint brush into the green paint.

Place the brush in the center of the clover where the points of the heart all meet. Using a sweeping motion, make the stem.

This is one of the funnest St Patricks day kids crafts for little ones. They get to play in paint and they love that you can take a shape and make another completely different shape from it.

Use your clovers to decorate greeting cards, wrapping paper, or just to hang on the fridge.
