Paper Leprechaun House Craft

We made this whimsical Paper Leprechaun House Craft, which comes with a Free Printable House Template, because we thought that leprechauns need a place to rest. But if you’re the other type, too, these could also easily be leprechaun traps instead. Just hang a sign that says free gold and the leprechauns will come running!

So the fun thing about the House Template that comes with our Paper Leprechaun House Craft is that after you’re done making leprechaun houses, you can then use the template to make all kinds of houses in a variety of colors. But for now, they’re leprechaun houses. And our Craft Stick Felt Leprechauns Craft and Craft Stick Leprechauns Craft are happy they have a place to stay.
