Make your own St. Patrick’s Day Door Hanger on the back of a ruler! This easy to make St. Patty's day door decor is simple and fast to make!
• Lay out a ruler. Get an idea where you want to place the beard, bow and hat.
• Lay out a ruler. Get an idea where you want to place the beard, bow and hat.
• Hot glue the beard to the ruler. If you do not want the mouth to show behind the beard, hot glue a piece of construction paper, cardboard, etc. over the open mouth.
• Hot glue the bowtie under the beard.
• Hot glue the hat to the ruler making sure the ribbon is free of the hat (over the top of it).
• Hot glue the top of the ribbon to the hat making sure there is enough to hang the knotted ends of the ribbon.
• Add a piece of cardboard and hot glue it across the ribbon for stability (otherwise, that hat will be pitching forward).
• Take two pipe cleaners, fold in half (cut if you like), and then twist together.
• Hot glue the twisted pipe cleaners to a large shamrock. Leave enough length so they may be attached to the door hanger and yet still protrude enough to be seen.
• Hot glue a smaller shamrock over the pipe cleaners on top of the larger shamrock.
• Hot glue the pipe cleaner portion of the shamrocks to the back of the door hanger. Again, make certain the shamrock protrudes enough to be seen on the frontside of the door hanger.
• Place some shamrock garland behind the shamrocks, you can shape into curves, cut, and hot glue in place from behind.
• This is what mine ended up looking like. Yours may be different depending on the whether you use store bought or homemade shamrocks, beard, and if you use a different hat or bow.
