St. Patrick ~ Costume

St. Patrick, patron of Ireland. Read more here.

 St. Patrick could wear a brown robe, but I kinda liked green. It matched his mitre.
I made the mitre by cutting two green felt sheets into a mitre shape and sewing just the bottom sides together.

I added white and gold trimmed ribbon to the bottom and the two "tails" on the back. 

It also has a three leaf clover and a white felt cross on the front. 

I also hot glued a strip of heavy cardboard to the inside of each felt piece to keep it up-right.

The staff, robe, and beard were bought:

Here is the shepherd's crook

Here is the beard.

Here is the green robe

Oriental Trading might have them cheaper.
