Isn’t this a cute St. Patrick’s Day craft! You will need a few items to make these leprechaun hats filled with snacks and treats, and you may need to help a bit just with the tracking and using the hot glue gun but the kids can take it from there. This is what you need to make these.
St. Patrick’s Day Treat Cups
- Green paper cups
- 1 green foam sheet (multi colored foam pack here)
- 1 black foam sheet
- 1 gold glitter foam sheet
- Shamrock shaped glitter foam
- Stickers
- Shamrock cookie cutter or stencil
- Hot glue gun and scissors
Here are the steps you take to make these leprechaun hats:
- Cut a circle out of green foam, larger than the cup and glue gun it to the bottom of the cup
- Cut a black strip of foam to fit around the cup
- Cut a square out of gold for the front of the hat buckle
- Use the cookie cutter to trace a shamrock on the green foam sheet and cut, or us already cut pieces
- Use a shamrock foam piece for some of the cups
- Use stickers wherever
- Fill with treats
