St. Patrick's Day Bracelet

Irish Blessing
May the Irish hills caress you,
May her lakes and rivers bless you,
May the luck of the Irish enfold you,
May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
I threw together this bracelet in a hurry this morning, pulling out beads that I thought would work as my St. Patrick's Day Bracelet. I didn't really put too much thought into it, and thought I would tweak it later in the day. In fact, in the back of my head, I was thinking I might have to pull my 4-Leaf Clover as I didn't think the colors would match. I was very pleasantly surprised that I liked it just the way it was, with the only change being some placement of stoppers to space out my beads.

By the grass, flowers and gold, I have a hat, perhaps it belonged to a wee leprechaun?

May you be touched by a bit o' Irish luck!
Have a Happy St. Patrick's Day!

    1. Thank you! Our weather has been perfect lately too, in the 60s. This bracelet fits my mood!

  2. Think that's a fab combo! As Tracy said nice, bright and cheery, love the colours!

    Despite marrying into an Irish family it's not usually a day we recognise, I only clicked this weekend as I saw the big inflatable Guiness thingy outside one of the pubs this week!

    1. Thanks! I normally don't celebrate St. Patrick's day either, but with little ones, they get a tad excited and they learn about it at daycare, so it gets put on our radar. We don't do anything special other than a spot of green. Although at daycare, the teachers typically hide some stickers and mess up their middle room and then have the kids come and say that leprechauns had been playing there and left behind some treasures!
