These little four-leaf clovers are so quick to make and could bring you just the luck you need! Grab some felt and a stick and you will have them made in no time.

When I was young I spent all of my summers at the family cottage. It was a magical place to escape the city where trees, water, and dirt roads were abundant. It was what inspired me to write my book Cottage Projects With a Vintage Flair and fill it with projects that were reminiscent of these summers.


It was at the cottage that I spent hours looking for four-left clovers so I thought it would be fun to make some this year. 🍀

I thought it would be fun to display the four-left clovers in some little cloches I had. The cloches were just little craft plastic ones but I love how small and cute they are.


The top part pops right off so I was able to give the bases a coat of Pistachio coloured paint to make them look a little better.


To make the clovers, I cut four little hearts out of green felt for each one. How big your hearts are will depend on where you are putting them. Mine had to be quite small so that they would fit inside the cloches.

Once I had the little hearts cut, I placed the tips of them together, added a dab of hot glue, and popped in a little stick.

To display each clover, I added a little ball of clay to the centre of the cloche base. The clay allowed me to push the stick in and have the clover stand up inside of the cloche when it was closed.

I didn’t want to see the clay so I added some green moss around the base of the four-leaf clover once it was in.

These little clovers were so easy and quick to make. I love the little pop of green they add to my shelves. 🍀
