Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Lucky Charms!!!
May You Find Gold At the End of Your Rainbow!


Kiss Me, I'm Irish...
We are a "Scot-Irish" family.  My husband having the Irish heritage & my family, the Scottish.  So each year in March, "luck has it", our home takes on a shade of green. At the top is a dough bowl filled with grunged shamrock ornies, cookie cutters and old Irish postcards.

 I enjoyed making these grunged shamrock ornies from men's old suits, eyelet shirts that I purchased from the local thrift store & adding bits & bobs for fun!
These shamrocks hang from our breakfast room chandelier, along with a rusty horseshoe attached to a sham  that I made wishing all that enter our home good luck...


Thrift store find...How "lucky" I was...no cigarette burns.

IRISH PRAYER: May you be in Heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead!

Don't let your "bloomers" be caught down & flapping in the wind!
HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY
from The Cranky Queen & her Scot-Irish Family.
