Do you decorate for St. Patricks day why or why not?

Ahh well I suppose you have many different days you could choose to decorate for. I have Irish far back in my blood line. My parents always celebrated St. Patricks day but I know many people do not. I dont know if I would decorate for that day if my parents hadent done it growing up. They sell lots of decorations in the stores for that day so I probably would still buy some and deocrate even if I wasent any irish. I attached a photo of two of the crafts that my daughter did last year that I put up this year agian to decorate.

Aww thanks so much. We have a bar in town that was bought a few years back by an Irish man. When they came here they brought a whole staff of Irish people with them. They have a big thing there on St. Patricks day. St. Patricks day to the irish is pretty much just a day to get totally drunk lol.

Looking at the pics of the wind sock and the 2 decorations your daughter made she certainly has talent. Over here, the bars make an effort for St. Patrick's day but the shops hardly have anything decoration wise. The only Irish I have in my blood is the guiness that I sometimes drink, hahaha. But, I agree let's celebrate what we can and bring a bit of happiness into peoples lives. Over here everyone is getting ready to celebrate the Royal wedding and planning street parties. The government has declared it a national holiday, so a day off work to celebrate. Hope you enjoy St. Patrick's day with your family at the end of the month.

I usually decorate the first of the month for each holiday and the next day or soon after the holiday is over I undecorate. So it hasent been very long since I took down the Valentines day decorations and now have St. Patricks day decorations up and then soon after will be easter decorations. I'm sick of seeing decorations around my house lol but my kids really enjoy it.

Most all of the decorations that I have are crafts that my daughter and I have made together. I dont have many decorations for the Fourth of July unfortunately. Everything else though I have a pretty good amount. I also dont have any at all for new years eve and new years day but I dont really feel like taking the time to decorate for those days anyway.

Thats cool that they celebrate Australia day by decorating thei cars. I dont decorate my van for any of the holidays just the inside of my house. I dont know if many people decorate for st. patricks day but my family always did so I carried on the tradition with my children.

Easter is a really fun holiday for kids. Letting them dye eggs and having an easter egg hunt. Having dinner at relatives house. I dont care for Easter decorations though so I dont have many. The ones I have I only put out because my kids love decorating. Someday when my kids are grown I probably will get rid of at least 75% of my holiday decorations. I attached a picture of some of our St. Patricks decorations.

When I was young and living with my parents they decorated for every holiday. My sister and I loved it getting to put up all the decorations. They decorated for new years eve and new years day but I dont do that. I dont have any decorations for such simple holiday.

I do love decorating for Christmas the most. I have beautiful Christmas decorations. All the rest of the decorations we have for other holidays really arent anything special. Mostly they are crafts that my daughter and I have done. They are very special to me.

Well I know that there are certain foods that are traditonally served for St. Patricks day dinners but I am really sure what they are. My family has dinner at my mothers house. We have peas and pretty much everything else we put green food coloring in such as the milk and the mashed potatoes. We like to make it festive for the kids.

The "traditional" food for St. Patrick's Day is corned beef and cabbage, with boiled potatoes and carrots, too. People usually eat Irish soda bread, too--and drink Guinness, of course!
