But, in a more uplifting turn, rainbows are a fun part of St. Patrick’s Day. Especially when there’s a pot o’ gold at the end of said rainbow, like this Craft Stick & Paper Plate Rainbow Craft!

I have some of these colored craft sticks that included a sticky end on one side, but if you don’t just paint regular craft sticks in the colors of the rainbow and glue them in place. We had to paint our green and purple, because our pack didn’t come with those colors. Then cut out the pot o’ gold and paint it yellow!
