Luck o’ the Irish dessert bar

Now it’s time for the best part of any project: the food. For our spread, we chose to display a mix of gumballs, cupcakes, chocolate coins and milk with a classic St. Patrick’s Day color scheme. To create this festive look, we used green and gold gumballs and green cupcake foils. But feel free to play around with food and décor to see what works best for your table.

Charming St. Patrick’s Day party favors

DIY party favors are awesome, because you don’t need to throw a party to make them! You can still bring some luck o’ the Irish to share at the office, your kids’ school, or with neighbors. A homemade treat with a personal touch is worth its weight in gold.

We just love these cute little bags of Lucky Charms™ because they’re great snacks and fun to customize. First, take a food-safe bag and pour in the cereal. Then seal the top using a wraparound label folded in half around the top of the bag. You can also add a special note, fortune or St. Patrick’s Day fun fact to our predesigned template in ADPO.

Another great idea is a lucky penny card. First, print out the design on a label. then smooth it onto green cardstock and trim as you like. Finish by using a super glue to attach a penny. You can also use extra-strength double-sided tape if you want the recipient to be able to remove the penny.
