Both my husband and I have Irish in our blood and are up for a Guiness any time of the year! So it wouldn’t be March without a little bit of Irish Mantel love around here. Total cost of the mantel: $1.00! You can’t beat that! ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. a n i r i s h m a n t e l 
The only purchase was a package of shamrocks from The Dollar Tree. I simply hole punched them and strung them on twine. The candles were wrapped in two layers of scrapbook paper and finished off with a bit of twine. 
And thank you so much to Ladybird Ln who whipped up the Irish Blessing printable. You can print one here! A little bit of “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” on the chalkboard and we are ready to go. 
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. w e e k e n d w r a p u p Shifting gears, we decided to jump in the car and drive just over an hour to the snow this weekend. It was fantastic. It was a glorious sun filled day with tubing, snow angels, giggles, and snowball fights. 
Hope you all had a great weekend as well. And a shout out to April over at a kitchen table for two. I have recently met April and she couldn’t be sweeter. She highlighted a thoughtful place today in such a sweet way. Thanks, April! h a p p y m o n d a y e v e r y o n e ! Sharing this idea with: Polly Want a Crafter Just A Girl

I love your mantle(and how its simple,not overdone at all).
Glad you got some fun snow time. We got another huge storm last night(our biggest yet this year) and got dumped on with a whopping 14 inches!!!!!!!!! We're kind of trapped inside today:)
Have a great week.
P.S. I love your boots too!

You are so clever with your fun St. Patrick's mantle. It looks perfect! I just printed out the Irsih Blessing and am going to pop it in a frame. Thanks for that! How fun your snow day looked! Hope you have a great week, Courtney.
I'm so lame…I usually just gloss right over St. Patty's Day and move straight on to Easter…your mantel is adorable and I can't believe it only cost you $1!!! Amazing.
Your mantle is so cute Court- those shamrocks hung with twine are awesome! I love the pics in the snow- so fun!!! How'd you get to meet another blooger- so jeally!!

Your mantle is so fun and festive! I have yet to make one of those garlands, but the shamrocks have me thinking. Love those snow scenes too.
