Here’s What You Need

Here’s your Easy Leprechaun Craft supply list (This post contains affiliate links to the products mentioned. Read my disclosure policy for more information):

• Free Easy Leprechaun Printable <— Get it Here!
• colored copy paper, colored cardstock, or construction paper
• scissors
• stapler
• glue sticks

Step 1: Download and Print the Free Easy Leprechaun Craft Template

Download the Free Easy Leprechaun Printable. In the next step, learn how to quickly cut out as many shapes as you need.

Step 2: Staple and Cut Out the St. Patrick’s Day Craft Shapes

Once you have the easy leprechaun template printed out, staple it to construction paper and cut out multiple shapes at a time.

Note: If you want to make this craft with a group of kids, you can staple the template to up to 10 sheets of copy paper, 5 sheets of cardstock or 6-10 sheets of construction paper.

So, did you know, you can staple together 10 pieces of copy paper and cut out 10 shapes at a time?! That’s my SECRET to fast & easy crafting.

Stapling the paper is very important because it makes sure it doesn’t move as you cut. The more staples the better. Cardstock is the thickest so you may only be able to cut 5 sheets at a time.

Step 3: How to Assemble

The kids will have so much fun making this easy St. Patrick’s Day craft!

I recommend having a leprechaun that is already put together so the children can see what the final version will look like.

1. glue the legs onto the bottom of the Leprechaun hat
2. glue the shoes onto the bottom of the Leprechaun legs
3. glue the black belt onto the Leprechaun hat.
4. glue the gold buckle onto the Leprechaun hat
5. glue the black rectangle onto the gold buckle of the Leprechaun hat
6. don’t forget to write your name on the back

Step 1: glue the legs onto the bottom of the Leprechaun hat

Step 2: glue the shoes onto the bottom of the Leprechaun legs

Step 3: glue the black belt onto the Leprechaun hat

Step 4: glue the gold buckle onto the Leprechaun hat

Step 5: glue the black rectangle onto the gold buckle of the Leprechaun hat

And you’re finished!

This is such a fun and simple St. Patrick’s Day craft for kids. This Easy Leprechaun craft is perfect for preschool, nursery school, elementary school, cub scouts or just a fun craft at home idea.
