I’m pretty sure most St. Patrick’s Day parties are just beer destinations … and rightly so.
The love of beer is weaved throughout Irish history. One of Ireland’s oldest and most popular beers is Guinness, an Irish dry stout crafted in 1759 in Dublin.
To honor the Irish brew tradition, I want to share a fitting St. Patrick’s Day decoration for your party. You can use these dressed up beer mugs as centerpieces and favors for guests.
DIY St. Patrick’s Day beer mug flowers
Materials (for one mug)
- Low-cost beer mug or glass
- 42 oz. bag of gold or green water pearls
- 6 in. strip of white tulle
- Faux flower blooms (white or green tint)
To make this decoration more unique than a four-leaf clover, customize the side of the mug with a clever St. Patrick’s Day image or saying! You can make several of these mugs for guests to take home, or give the lads and lassies party favors with an Irish flare.

This DIY project also can be a money-saving solution for brides and grooms. Simply create these crafty mugs with beads and flowers that match your wedding theme. Use them to adorn the wedding party table at dinner and later give them to your bridesmaids and groomsmen as gifts!
Have an enchanted St. Patrick’s Day!
