St. Patrick's Day Printable

Shamrocks

Start by drawing a basic heart shape. Then, add a sideways heart shape on either side. Finally, create a stem by drawing a long, thin triangle at the bottom. I like to curve mine off to one side, but you can do it any way you like. Color it green, and you’re ready to go!

If you want to take your shamrock to the next level, there are countless ways to embellish it! Patterns like stripes, polka dots, and swirls are always a fun touch, and you can play around with colors to get different effects. Here are a few examples to get you started…

Leprechaun Hat

First, you’ll draw two vertical lines that are slightly closer together at the bottom than at the top. Connect them with a curving line. Next, connect the bottom of the hat by drawing a curving line that extends out to the sides as shown in the second image. Draw two horizontal lines, one just above the brim and one slightly higher to form the band. Inside the band, two vertical lines and one short horizontal one make the image of a buckle. All that’s left to do is add color, and your hat is ready for any festive leprechaun who comes along.

Flag of Ireland

Start by drawing two slightly wavy horizontal lines. Connect them on both ends with vertical lines, then draw two more vertical lines to divide the flag into thirds. Finally, draw a long thin stick on the left. The left portion of the flag is green, the center is white, and the right portion is orange.

See? It’s easier than you think to create fun and festive doodles to celebrate St. Patty’s Day! I can’t wait to see yours and how you use them to embellish your own artwork.
