March Craft-ness

I'm thankful that I've had the time this month to create some fun craft projects for St. Patrick's day.  And yes, I found these ideas on Pinterest (or on Facebook).  
So, here's what I've been up to lately...  my creations are on the left, and the inspiration is on the right!  

***********

I could have bought this one for about $15, but decided to make my own, and only spent about $6.35 for the supplies.  Thanks to my Dad for letting me use his 2x4's!  

***********

This one wins for cheapest and quickest project.  I had all of the supplies on hand for this one, so the total cost was $0!  Also, it was impromptu; I started and finished it in the time it took Andrew to pick up Samuel from Awana.  :)  

***********

This was the most costly project of the three, but fairly simple to do.  Who knew ribbons were expensive?!  Thankfully, I had coupons!  But I love that this is something I can use to decorate our front door for many years to come.  :)  I also love that you can do this wreath for any season of the year, just by using different colors of ribbon!

To close things off, how about a little Irish blessing?

May there always be work for your hands to do.
May your purse always hold a coin or two.
May the sun always shine on your windowpane.
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
