Tips for Making This Fun St. Patrick’s Day Craft

We had a great time making these bookmarks. Here are a few tips we learned along the way:

  • Be sure to print the template and use it as a guide if this is your first time working with wire.
  • Younger kids might have a hard time with the wire. They can, however, use pipe cleaners. 
  • These look great with the hammered or non-hammered wire look, so make both and decide which ones you like best.

Materials

Instructions

  1. Print out the template and select your shamrock bookmark size.
  2. You will work from the wire spool, so do not cut. Using loop pliers, create a small swirl at the end.
  3. Place the wire on top of the template and bend it to match the petals and curves of the shamrock.
  4. When you get near the end, approximate how much wire you'll need for the final curve and a decorative swirl. Cut the wire and bend the swirl with the looping pliers.
  5. If you like the hammered look, hammer it on a flat surface to add texture. Your shamrock bookmark is done! how to make a shamrock bookmark
