<h3><span style="color: #000000;">How to make it:</span></h3>
<ol type="1">
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Cut out pieces from cardboard using pattern.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Place pieces on a piece of newspaper and paint all with one coat of  Gesso or white paint. Let dry.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Paint the circle piece yellow and the other pieces green. Let dry.  Repeat with another coat if needed. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Paint a layer of gold glitter glue onto the yellow circle. Let dry. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Glue the cross together, three short pieces and the top, long piece  as the stem. Glue cross onto circle, centering the circle in the  mid-points of the cross. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Glue the craft jewel to the center of the cross.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Squeeze gold glitter glue onto the end of each of the four cross  pieces (see photo).</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Let dry completely.</span></li>
</ol>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">Tips:</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Gesso is a craft medium or surface preparation for acrylic and oil  paints and can be found in the art and oil painting section of your  local craft store. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">To eliminate a few steps and make this a quicker project, use green  and yellow craft foam or construction paper instead of painting on  cardboard. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">If you don’t have glitter glue, you can use regular gold glitter by  sprinkling it onto the yellow circle after painting on a layer of white  glue.</span></li>

<p><strong>Many times the supplies we use for school are not  earth-friendly. Even if you try to buy all your notebook paper recycled  and make sure to print on both sides of the paper, it is impossible to  be 100% green.</strong></p>
<p>Sometimes we forget too, that pencils are made from wood and usually  this wood is not recycled or even manufactured in a &#8216;green&#8217; way. Plus,  it is not easy to recycle a pencil. But there is one earth-friendly  pencil out there that solves this issue.</p>
<p>It is a pencil called Seed, and when you have used it up, you plant it!  Inside this pencil there is a seed, so all you have to do is put it in  the ground.</p>
<p>We love this idea and we like that by using this pencil you are helping  to reforest the earth. Another thing you can do to save on resources is  use up your erasers before buying new ones and always recycle paper.</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>You might need to use tools that require adult supervision, such as glue gun and scissors. If so, these can be replaced by textile glue and safety scissors. Make sure you ask your parents some help.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><em><strong>Show your festive nature this St. Patrick’s Day or just bring  yourself some good luck by making and wearing this shamrock shirt.</strong></em><br />
<a href="http://holidays.quiz.kaboose.com/55-what-s-your-st-patrick-s-day-iq"></a></span></p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">What you&#8217;ll need:</span></h3>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">T-shirt, washed and dried without fabric softener </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Green fabric paint OR green acrylic paint and textile medium</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Gold glitter fabric paint</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">3-D neon green fabric paint </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Cutting board or cookie sheet</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Wax paper</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Heart-shaped foam stamp</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">How to make it:</span></h3>
<ol type="1">
<li><span style="color: #000000;">If using acrylic paint, mix with textile medium according to  directions on the back of the textile medium bottle.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Place cutting board inside the t-shirt and then place a piece of wax  paper between the cutting board and shirt. (Picture #1) </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Position the cutting board where you want it.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Tuck the sleeves, sides and bottom of the shirt underneath the  cutting board. (Picture #2) </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Paint the heart foam stamp with a generous amount of green paint. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Press the painted heart stamp onto the shirt, and then carefully  lift away. (Picture #3) </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Create shamrocks positioning three or four hearts together; they  should meet at the heart points. Draw a stem to complete the shamrock.<br />
</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">When you are finished adding shamrocks to your shirt, allow the  green paint to dry for about half an hour.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Use gold glitter fabric paint to add a gold glow around the  shamrocks, spread with a paintbrush or your finger. (Picture #4) </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Pipe 3-D fabric paint around the border of the shamrocks. (Picture #5) </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Carefully lift the entire cutting board and shirt and move it to a  quiet spot where it will remain undisturbed so it can dry overnight (or  at least 6 hours).</span></li>
</ol>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">Tips:</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">In craft supply stores, fabric paint is usually in a separate  section from the regular craft paint. Look for a section specifically  geared at painted and embellished clothing. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">If you like, add “Kiss Me I’m Irish” or another fun phrase to your  shirt. </span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Textile medium is available in your local craft store, usually by  the craft paint.</span></li>

<p><span style="color: #000000;"><em><strong>Prepared sugar cookie dough is the secret to quick holiday cookies  that make a festive St. Patrick&#8217;s Day dessert. Ready in minutes, they&#8217;re  iced with a luscious green frosting and topped with green sprinkles for  a shimmering finish.</strong></em></span></p>
<h3><span style="color: #000000;">Ingredients</span></h3>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">1 cup confectioners&#8217; sugar</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">3 teaspoons milk</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">1 teaspoon light corn syrup</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract</span></li>

<h3><span style="color: #000000;">Cooking Instructions</span></h3>
<ol type="1">
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with  parchment paper. Alternatively, spray the baking sheet with cooking  spray.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">With a lightly floured rolling pin on a floured board, roll the  dough out until it is about 1/4-inch thick. Cut out cookies with a small  shamrock cookie cutter. Arrange the cookies on the baking sheet about  an inch apart. (You can make two batches of cookies or use two baking  sheets.) Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are lightly golden  brown.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">While the cookies are baking, prepare the icing: In a small mixing  bowl, with an electric mixer set on medium speed, beat the sugar and  milk until blended. Add the corn syrup, vanilla extract and green food  coloring and beat until smooth. If the icing is too thick to spread,  beat in an additional 1 or 2 teaspoons of milk.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">When the cookies are baked, remove them from the oven and cool them  on the baking sheet for 2 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack  to finish cooling.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Frost the cooled cookies with the icing, and sprinkle them with the  green sprinkles.</span></li>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">The frosting will keep in the  refrigerator, tightly covered, for up to a week. These cookies may be  frozen, wrapped in freezer-quality plastic wrap in a sturdy container,  for up to two months.</span></p>

<h3><span style="color: #000000;">Tips &amp; Tricks</span></h3>
<div>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">This dough can be tinted green if you  like: simply place it in a bowl, sprinkle with several drops of green  food coloring, and work it into the dough with your fingers.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you don&#8217;t have a shamrock cookie cutter, roll the dough into  little balls. For each cookie, push together three balls with two as the  base and one on top. Make a &#8220;stem&#8221; out of half of one ball and press it  on the bottom of the base. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the  baking sheet and bake as above. The cookies will flatten as they bake.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For variety, leave some of the icing white, frost some of the cookies  with this and then top with the green sprinkles.</span></p>
