Spring has arrived, bringing two wonderful things to mind: Spring Flower Crafts, especially beautiful and simple Daffodil Crafts and St David’s Day. Celebrated on 1st March, St David’s Day is Wales’ national day – also called Dydd G?yl Dewi Sant.
To mark St David’s Day, I thought it was the perfect time to gather a lovely collection of Daffodil Crafts for you to explore. The Daffodil is Wales’ national flower and a bright, joyful emblem for children to craft with. These delightful Daffodil Crafts for Kids are also ideal for Mother’s Day and Spring crafting!!
What makes these St David’s Day Daffodil Crafts so wonderful is that you can create them for the occasion and then keep the Daffodil crafts and decorations displayed throughout Spring. St David’s Day, Spring, Mother’s Day AND Easter Crafts all combined in one collection!!! Who doesn’t enjoy making a gorgeous Flower Craft?!
