Stunning presentation!<br />The Leprechaun riding the sheep is so cute and all his shenanigans are amusing and interesting. You outdid yourself!

Your table full of shenanigans is delightful! The bowls from Ireland are beautiful, and your Courtly Check pieces compliment the Irish greens so well. I loved reading about the history behind this popular holiday, and aren't you clever to use the bishop's hat fold for your napkins! I hope a shenanigator doesn't visit my house, he sure looks like trouble! Let the day drinking begin, "hic!"

The Traveling Shamrock cloth and Leprechaun has really made the rounds. You along with the other ladies have made it so proud. The green goblets and those sheep are a finishing touch.

This is such a fun post with all of the shenanigans going on with the leprechaun...I know Mary will be amused! Your table is fabulous with the majolica plates resting upon the courtly check chargers. The Celtic knots bowls from Ireland couldn’t be more perfect. The bishop fold napkin resting upon the courtly check napkin rings is most creative. The green flatware and stemware add more charm to the table. The addition of the sheep and the serious leprechaun adds more whimsy. The story of St. Patrick is most interesting and I am so glad you added it. This might be my most favorite tablescape that you have shared. I will be looking forward to the next keeper of the cloth!
