Why d we wear green on St. Patricks Day? There are many explanations and reasons: (1) it is one of the colors of the Irish flag;(2) it is the color most associated with Ireland a.k.a. the Emerald Isle, (3) it is the color of spring (4) it is the color of the shamrock which St. Patrick used to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagans. These are just few of the reasons for the green fever on St. Patty’s and if you don’t have any green on you, get ready to be pinched.
Now that needs a whole new different set of explanations, but in short it is a superstitious belief that whoever’s not wearing green will become the subject of the fairies and leprechauns’ mischief. So, pinching someone not wearing green is a reminder that there are leprechauns around.
Any amount on green is good, so here are some tiny accessories you can easily make yourself that will make your whole family pinch proof in no time.
