Oh the mischief we will get into with this fun leprechaun craft!

Being from Ireland, I just couldn’t resist sharing a little bit of leprechaun crafting mischief with you.

This craft is made with a humble toilet paper tube and scraps of paper!

Caution! Have your kids keep their eyes peeled on this wee fella. Leprechauns are smart, mischievous little faeries who’ll do anything to escape capture, even if it means turning them into a frog!

The Leprechaun King needs just the right amount of curl in his beard…

Steps to Make a Leprechaun King

Curl the orange beard and hair strips around a pencil (or pen) to give it a lovely ‘bounce’.

Glue the green paper suit, beard, and hair into position on the toilet paper tube.

Then, glue on the crown.

Finally, draw little dots for the eyes, nose, and mouth. I used a mini brown pom pom for the nose for added cuteness!
