Crafting with the kiddos or adults, for that matter, has never been quicker with the Easiest Kawaii Inspired Shamrocks. Created in three steps with limited supplies that you probably already have in your craft stash.
If Kunin Felt is not available use colored cardstock or create your own from white cardstock and paints, crayons, markers or colored pencils. Search the recycle bin for green boxes and magazines and use items you already have on hand.

Here's how to make Kawaii Shamrocks from Felt:
STEP ONE
Download, print, and cut out the Kawaii Shamrock Patterns at the bottom of this post. Select one of the three sizes included or mix and match! Trace onto green craft felt with the MONO Twin permanent marker. Cut out with scissors, inside the lines, so you have a clean, finished project.
STEP TWO
Cut small rectangles and then squares from light pink craft felt. Cut the squares into circles for the shamrock’s cheeks and then attach them with the glue gun and glue sticks. You can use liquid craft glue for this project, but you will have to wait for it to dry.
STEP THREE
Attach wiggle eyes with the glue gun and glue sticks to the top center of the Shamrock, placing them right beside each other. This is a fun way to use up miss-matched sizes of wiggle eyes.
STEP FOUR
Draw a wide and shallow smile from cheek to cheek with the MONO Twin black permanent marker. I love drawing and tracing with the MONO Twin Permanent Marker from Tombow because it has a large bullet tip and a small extra fine tip.
BONUS IDEAS
Flip Shamrocks over and attach a pin back, hair clip, and/or magnets to the back of each with the glue gun and glue sticks. Attach Shamrocks to a ribbon to make a garland or banner. Add Shamrocks to a wreath for fun home decor.
