I have quite a few St. Patrick’s Day themed kid crafts coming up on the Glued To My Crafts blog this week BUT today’s craft idea is one of my personal favorites. This Paper Plate Clover is really simple, fun for all ages and of course – super inexpensive too.

The first couple steps remind me of cutting paper snowflakes but the end result is perfect for the upcoming green and gold themed holiday. Plus no two clovers will be alike so kids can really let their imagination go wild with this one.

So what are you waiting for? Grab those craft supplies and follow our step-by-step tutorial below. Who knows – this Paper Plate Four Leaf Clover might even bring you some luck today! Happy crafting my friends!
