Gather friends and family this St. Patrick’s Day to let them know how lucky you are to have them by throwing a themed party. Transform your house into a scene straight from the bottom of a rainbow with these easy St. Patrick’s Day decorating ideas.

1. Opt for Inflatables

Add even more green to your lawn by dressing up your yard with St. Patrick’s Day decor. Blow up a large leprechaun inflatable to act as a greeter, or stretch out a colorful rainbow complete with a pot of gold.

2. Hang Up a Wreath

You can line your drive with green garden flags and stakes all the way up to your doorstep where a wreath or door mural are waiting to be seen as the first glimpse of the party scene inside.

3. Deck Out Your Doorstep

Welcome your guests immediately upon arrival with a doormat stamped with an Irish greeting.

4. Prepare to Party

Create a photo op for your party guests by covering a wall with a shamrock decal or glittery gold backdrop and draping hat-shaped string lights that glow a festive green color.

5. Leave No Wall Bare

Adorn your walls with St. Patrick’s Day themed canvas art and wooden signs that feature Irish proverbs and adorable leprechauns and other tabletop decorations including signs, knick knacks and banners.

6. Throw a Personal Party

Even if you aren’t hosting a ton of people, you can still enjoy the holiday by swapping out your usual home furnishings with shamrock-patterned throw pillows and blankets, rugs and even shower curtains.

7. Dine in Style

Host a St. Patrick’s Day themed dinner party with fun decorations and tableware trinkets. Dress your table with a clover-covered tablecloth or table runner. Overtop, layer placemats, dishes, and fabric napkins complete with shamrock napkin rings. Bring out your season-appropriate cornbeef – or whatever you’re having for dinner – on a trefoil trimmed serving platter.

8. Serve Up Some Liquid Luck

Alongside your dishes, treat guests to St. Patrick’s Day themed wine glasses with matching charms, or some emerald highball glasses for green-themed cocktails. After dining, enjoy an after dinner coffee, with Irish cream of course, in shamrock covered mugs or a special Irish coffee mug just for the occasion.

Tip!

If you’re attending a St. Patrick’s Day party, wrap up a festive dish cloth or tea towel as a gift for the host!
