Since we are huge fans of Ireland and everything Irish, we definitely celebrate Saint Patrick's Day every day. This one wasn't an exception! 

We talked and talked about what to do to make this Saint Paddy's Day special. And finally, we agreed that we could do lanterns. Green lanterns. Very green lanterns indeed!

So we began our lantern making process. What you need is a mason jar which needs to be cleaned thoroughly so the paint can be applied without any difficulties. We used a glittering green spray for mason jars and a golden one for the lids. We sprayed the jars green and later on, we added a bit of golden just to make them more magical. We left the jars and the lids to dry for a day. We found patterns with fairies which we cut very carefully because of the small pieces and then we glued them onto the surface of the jars from the outside. We put little lights inside of the jars and put the lids on. And the lanterns very done!

There was also a cake. A green cake...if you had any doubts about its colour. Roberta and her mom Goranka made it just for us. And they promised to do another one next year! So we are already looking forward to the next Saint Patrick's Day.

Dressed in green...with green lanterns and fairies and leprechauns...enjoying the green cake...listening to Irish folk music...we felt quite Irish!

Till next year...and another green idea....

May the sun shine, all day long,
everything go right, and nothing wrong.
May those you love bring love back to you,
and may all the wishes you wish come true!

Happy Saint Paddy's Day from the 7th class!
