St Patrick’s Day Candle Holder

February 27, 2019 by Shellie Wilson

St. Patrick’s Day is a beloved holiday celebrated around the world. Whether you’re Irish or not, there’s something special about dressing up in green and enjoying a festive atmosphere. If you’re looking for a way to add some St. Patty’s Day spirit to your home decor or party, making your own candles is a perfect option. Not only can you customize the color and scent to fit the theme, but it’s also a fun and easy DIY project.

To start, you’ll need candle-making supplies like wax, wicks, and fragrance oils. For St. Patrick’s Day, some popular scents include fresh clover, peppermint, and lemongrass. You can also create your own blends for a unique fragrance. Here are five St. Patrick’s Day scent blends to try:

Irish Meadow – A blend of fresh clover, sweet grass, and wildflowers.

Leprechaun’s Brew – A blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove.

Pot of Gold – A blend of bergamot, lemongrass, and patchouli.

Lucky Charm – A blend of peppermint, vanilla, and cream.

Emerald Isle – A blend of green tea, bergamot, and jasmine.

Once you have your fragrance blend ready, you can start pouring the wax into your candle holders. For St. Patrick’s Day, using green or gold candle dye can help create a festive atmosphere. You can also add in some glitter or small shamrock-shaped confetti to the wax before it sets.

To make your St. Patrick’s Day candles even more special, you can add some decorative touches like ribbon or a label with a St. Patty’s Day message. These candles make great party favors or gifts for friends and family.

Overall, making your own St. Patrick’s Day candles is a fun and easy way to add some festive spirit to your home or party. Whether you’re using a tutorial like the St. Patty’s Day candle holder or creating your own unique designs, the possibilities are endless. So get creative and enjoy the luck of the Irish this St. Patrick’s Day!

Shark Week Learning for Kids

Shark Week generally happens in July, but any time is a good time to learn more about sharks. 

First, start with some fun whale facts like these from Kids Craft Room. Here I learned about the dwarf lantern shark, which is the smallest shark and only grows to about 6-8 inches (about 15-20 cm) long. It also emits light. How cool is that?

Natural Beach Living has some great printable shark information guides, where kids can learn about different kinds of sharks, match the facts to the pictures, or print out doubles and do a shark memory game. 

Living Life an Learning has some great shark activity pages including the parts of a shark, types of sharks, a crossword puzzle and more. Also check out their parts of a shark and word scramble download, and a life cycle worksheet.

Learn about how sharks float with this great activity from JDaniel4’s Mom. 

Need more facts about sharks? This fact pact from The WOLFe PACK on Teacher Pay Teachers includes fact sheets, a printable flip book, informational text, vocabulary, comprehension questions and more. 

Living Montessori Now has a great collection of shark themed activities with a Montessori inspired twist. You’ll find a shark roll and cover, shark phonics and lots more shark activities Deb has collected from all over the Internet. 

Remember the “Sharknado” movie? A Few Shortcuts turned the combination of sharks and tornadoes into a fun science activity. You’ll need a bottle connector for this project but otherwise should have everything you need on hand. Use their template to make your sharks out of aluminum foil. So fun!

You can also do some shark themed coloring with these coloring pages from Encouraging Moms at Home. Or make a cool 3D shark with this template from korkotak. And there are tons of different shark crafts collected in this post from Kids Activities Blog.
