Easy Pot O' Gold Candy Craft

St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner.  That means rainbows, pots of gold, leprechauns, and green are heading your way.  If you haven't already picked out that perfect green outfit for the big day, time is running out!  Act fast or else you will be pinched!  

Bring the Irish out of you and all of your favorite leprechauns by making this simple and adorable craft that I found online!  It's especially a perfect go to craft on a rainy day, because you will really feel like you are in rainy Ireland!  

What you need:

Rainbow Twizzlers
Gold Coins
Clear Goodie Bag 
Construction Paper

Instructions:

Sort the Twizzlers into a rainbow form, you know, red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Place 5-7 gold coins in the bottom of the goodie bag
Place the sorted rainbow into the bag and make sure it's in correct rainbow order!
Use a rubber band or stapler to seal the bag shut
Cut out any shape and color of construction paper to glue on top of the bag, a four leaf clover shape would be super cute!
Write or print whatever creative saying you'd like such as "I love you like a leprechaun loves its gold" or "You shine as bright as a pot o' gold

Have fun!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!
