Create Your Own St Patricks Day Wreath Kansas

By Jeffrey Powell


Celebrated around the globe by Irish and non-Irish alike, the 17th of March recognizes the patron Saint of Ireland. March 17th was the day the Saint died and traditionally people hold parades, parties and raise a glass of Irish stout to the man credited with driving the snakes from Ireland. The holiday has become associated with luck and wreaths decorated with lucky symbols are hung. If you wish to buy or make your own St Patricks day wreath Kansas has lots of outlets and florists selling anything you might need.

Often known as Paddy's Day, the 17th of March has been adopted by many around the world as a day to dress in green, drink green drinks and have fun. As with the winter holiday season a wreath hung on the door is becoming part of the traditions. These can add a lovely splash of color and let your neighbors know you are celebrating.

The lucky four-leaf clover or shamrock is the plant most associated with this day and the Irish. Finding one of these growing wild is supposed to bring you lots of luck and wealth. They are however extremely rare to find so it might be better to find another option to the real thing.

Stores selling floral supplies or your local florist will have a selection of wreaths to buy and hang at home. They normally incorporate spring blooms and superb green foliage for the most dramatic effect. Instead of buying ready to hang, you might want to try making your own. The store should also be able to sell you the materials you need for you to take home and create your own fabulous design.

The internet is an excellent place to look for videos and blogs giving tips on making floral wreaths. There are also many pictures to give you inspiration. You can include items for luck such as horseshoes. Ribbons and messages can also be added to fresh flowers to make a stunning decoration.

When picking the things to include in your project consider whether you wish to use it again next year. Plastic or fabric flowers will last for years whereas fresh blooms and leaves will soon wilt. If you do opt for fresh flowers take into account the weather. Some plants will wilt easily in sunshine while others despise frost. Secure any items firmly to the frame if your home is exposed to high winds.

Not everyone is lucky enough to have a handy local florist or perhaps they do not stock exactly what you would like. Online stores are likely to have exactly what you want. Check shipping details and order in plenty of time so that everything arrives before the big day. Size is also a concern, what looks like the right size in the picture might be smaller than a dime or bigger than your door.

Ready-made or home-made, a St Patrick's Day wreath brightens up any home. It may even bring you luck if you load it with enough shamrocks and lucky symbols. Luck or no luck, Paddy's Day is a time for fun, parties and parades. Get out the green clothes and enjoy a stout or a bright green cocktail.
