Instructions
- Inflate your green, white, and gold balloons to various sizes. Use a balloon strip or tie them in clusters to create a garland. Secure it with string or twine and hang it across doorways or as a backdrop.
- Cut your streamers into varying lengths. Create swags by attaching them with tape. For streamer curtains, tape long lengths together and hang them across windows.
- Open the Lucky Charms cereal boxes. Cut out shapes from the cardboard, apply glue, and sprinkle gold glitter. Let dry and thread them onto string or use tape to hang.
- On green paper, draw or stencil shamrock shapes and cut them out. Apply glue and sprinkle with gold glitter. Use these to decorate streamer curtains or create a wreath.
- Write phrases on white cardstock using green markers. Cut them out and adhere to gold cardstock for a border. Display these signs on tables or incorporate them into balloon arrangements.
- If using potted plants, arrange them on tables and tuck in shamrock cutouts. Drape fairy lights around decorations for a magical glow.
Notes
- Use a mix of balloon sizes for visual interest.
- Alternate colors for streamers to enhance vibrancy.
- Allow glue and glitter to dry completely before handling.
