Welcome back to the Randolph Towers Blog! In today’s post, we are preparing for St. Patrick’s Day on the 17th by sharing some ideas for how to celebrate. Keep reading for an overview for all you might need to celebrate in your apartment or out and about around Arlington, VA!
Decorate Your Apartment
Break out the green! Add a bit of luck to your apartment with these festive DIY St. Patrick’s Day home decorations from Country Living. Make one of these St. Patrick’s Day wreaths to hang on your apartment’s front door to greet any guests.
Bake Goodies
Make fun treats to serve at a St. Patrick’s Day party or at a low-key time in your apartment with a friend. Try making these Mint Brownie Ice Cream Push-Up Pops or these Mint Oreo Truffles that you won’t be able to quit eating. Visit Julie’s Eats and Treats for even more ideas!
Dress Up
A fun and easy way to observe St. Patrick’s Day is to dress up! We aren’t just talking about wearing something green and calling it good. Go all out and dress up as a leprechaun! Make a trip to your favorite thrift store in the area to get everything you will need to make your costume.
Visit an Irish Pub
To get an authentic Irish experience, head to one of the many Irish pubs in the area to enjoy some great food, live entertainment, and drinks. The atmosphere in a pub is different than a regular bar and the food is usually much better than bar food.
Learn about Irish Culture
Expand your knowledge of Irish culture and society by reading up on it! Learn some Irish slang and practice your Irish accent and you will be speaking like a local (or pretending you can) in no time! Spend some time broadening your horizons by learning about another culture.
