St. Patty's Day M&M's Four Leaf Clover Shamrock Party Platter
This is an easy craft to make, and a great way to use up those Valentine's Day heart boxes that you might have around the house. If you have two Chocolate Heart Boxes that are about the same size, these would work the best. You will be using both the lid and the actual box. Push them all together with the points towards the center. It would be easiest if the bottoms were facing upwards. Now tape them together like this...preferably with a strong tape such as masking, packing, or duct tape. Then turn the heart boxes back over. In March, stores start selling green M&M's for Saint Patrick's Day parties. Buy a bag or two, depending on how big your hearts are. Then fill up your hearts with green M&M's and you have a beautiful green shamrock filled with chocolate M&Ms ... this is why we call it a chocolate shamrock platter. Put it out and let your guests enjoy. Keep extra green M&M's if you want to refill during the party. Have fun.
