The Leprechauns of Ireland
Bring a special gift your way
It's full of love and happiness
On this St. Patrick's Day
And along with all good wishes
From this merry little group
Comes a little something special
It's a bag of Leprechaun POOP!
Luck o' the Irish Cream #1
This special jar of Irish cream
The Leprechauns left for you
Just a dab or two should do it
And you should start to feel
A wee bit o' the Irish too!
Luck o' the Irish Cream #2
A leprechaun has come your way
And left a special jar today
Just a small dab or two should do
You'll feel a wee bit o' the Irish too!
Luck o' the Irish Cream #3
If you believe in Leprechauns
Then this magic cream is for you
Just a dab or two will do it
You'll feel a bit o' the Irish too!
Couldn't send you flowers
And candy wouldn't do
Mushy cards just didn't say
The things I wanted them to,
So I got you something special,
And here's the inside scoop
I found you something very rare
It's genuine CUPID POOP!
Cupid made a little batch
Of love soup just for you.
He blew a kiss and threw it in,
In fact, he blew you two.
He added white and fluffy hugs,
And a little stirring stick,
Add some hot water and sip it slow,
It's sure to do the trick.
I may not always have the words,
To express my love for you,
But as you enjoy this candle's glow,
Please know that it is true.
Each time you light this candle,
And it's fragrance fills the air,
I hope it will remind you of,
How very much I care!
Materials:
10 inch piece of 1/8 or 1/4 inch ribbon
1-wooden bead with or without a face
1-#2 size paperclip clamp
scissors, glue and craft needle
Instructions:
Fold ribbon in half. Tie ribbon onto the paper clip using a half hitch
by putting the loop end of ribbon through the center of the paper clip,
then pull loose ends of ribbon
through the loop and tighten.
Add the bead onto the ribbon by sliding it down to the knot.
Depending on the size of the hole in the bead, you
may need to use a craft needle to add the bead onto the ribbon.
Determine the desired length of the ribbon, overlap the ends and glue.
You may want to add a glue to the bead to keep it from sliding.
Glue a bow or other adornment onto the paper clip under the bead
Attach a tag with the following poem:
Office Angel, my guardian dear,
Help me with the workload here,
Guide my hands through this paper mess,
And help me deal with deadline stress.
Amen!
You invited me to Thanksgiving dinner
With your family and friends
You didn't tell me I was the main dish
For me it was "THE END"
You frightened me so badly
I knew I had been duped
So I left you with my calling card
This bag of Turkey Poop
Happy Thanksgiving, from the Turkey
