Materials

  • 36-40 Green pony beads
  • 1 Green pipe cleaner

Instructions

  • Give your child a cup full of green beads and a pipe cleaner and have them fill up almost the entire pipe cleaner with the beads. Leave about an inch on both ends of the pipe cleaner to make the stem.
  • When your child has filled the pipe cleaner with green beads, twist the two ends together to make a stem.
  • Twist the rest of the beaded pipe cleaner into a shamrock or clover shape. This will probably be a step for an adult.
  • Add a ribbon for a pretty St. Patrick's Day necklace or use it on a table for some festive decor.

Notes
