9 St. Patrick’s Day Decorations That're Much More Than Green

Everyone loves to see a little green on St. Patrick’s Day. But there’re lots of other creative ways to incorporate the shamrock season into your indoor and outdoor décor — from shamrock decorations and throw pillows to wreathes, novelty lighting and more. Here are nine decorations to provide inspiration.

Give guests a warm Irish welcome with a St. Patty’s-themed porch sign outside your front door. This extra tall one equipped with LED lights adds a bold new twist on a classic.

If you’re looking for a way to add a little seasonal cheer to your front porch or lawn, and you’re a fan of big statements, consider going with an inflatable. They’re especially adored by kids.

No holiday display is complete without a beautiful wreath. It’s a great way to add a bit of color and it can be used in a variety of locations such as on the front door, over a mantel and even above a console table display.

Another great way to communicate a sense of welcome to approaching guests is by decorating along a walkway. These adorable lawn gnome-leprechaun yard stakes add just the right amount of cheer.

If you want a bold St. Patrick’s Day décor item that passersby can see from the street, opt for a colorful flag. It’ll add lots of curb appeal and it can be mounted in minutes. Plus, once you’ve installed the mounting hardware, you can change the flag out as often as you want to celebrate any holiday.

Turns out Christmas isn’t the only season for string lights. Whether you’re throwing a St. Patrick’s Day party indoors or just want to add some flair to your front porch, incorporating novelty lighting into your décor theme is always a good idea.

Another unexpected item that’s sure to put your guests in a good mood is a themed door mat. It’s works perfectly as a standalone piece or as part of a more elaborate porch display.

One location in the home you should never neglect on any holiday is the mantel. It provides the perfect blank canvas for filling up with décor items to suit the season.

If you enjoy going all out for St. Patty’s, don’t forget to include novelty pillows and throws to spruce up sofas, daybeds, entryway benches and more. And if your front porch stays dry enough, you can even add outdoor pillows to rocking chairs and other outdoor furniture.
