Instructions:

  • Cut a piece of paper into a shamrock shape and write your child’s name on it
  • Cut a piece of yarn a few inches longer than you need for a necklace
  • If you choose to use the optional straw-as-a-needle method, cut the straw at an angle and thread it through the yarn
  • Thread the cereal through the yarn, stopping halfway to thread the shamrock name tag on
  • Finish adding the cereal
  • Tie in the back
