A Modern St. Patrick's Day Party

Embrace Ireland's history and throw an innovative dinner party celebrating Saint Patrick with ideas from Modern Living Hawaii. Before you hit the stores to buy whatever is green or clover shaped - consider these natural and simple decorating ideas. 

Dress up your dinner party using inspiration from nature. Use that moss lying around in the garden and turn it into an eye-catching centerpiece accented with rocks or paper butterflies. Use slender spike leaves or blades of grass to wrap your dinner napkins in. Green fruits and other greenery also add an appealing look to your table setting. And of course, four leaf clovers - if you're lucky enough to find them - are the perfect compliment to a St. Patrick's Day dinner celebration.
