Easy Pot Of Gold Craft For St. Patrick’s Day

Sharing is caring!

This Pot of Gold craft is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day! We all enjoyed making this craft because it’s easy and fun to make.

As a woman who’s a wee bit Irish, I really enjoy St. Patrick’s Day. There are plenty of reasons, but really, I just love the color green. Lately, my daughter has been begging me to make another craft with her. She just loves crafts. So, I thought about some things that are St. Patrick’s Day themed. Rainbows and pots of gold stuck in my head. I loved the idea of my younger child working on their hand coordination by using finger paint to connect rainbows from one pot to the other. Also, I wanted them to work on the rainbow color order. So, that’s how this pot of gold St. Patrick’s Day craft was created.
