Here are our suggestions for interesting and unique Irish-themed beautiful gifts for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. Don’t forget to wrap them in green and gold!
Aran Pullover Sweaters
Aran sweaters or pullovers have a story almost as ancient as St. Patrick’s Day itself. The pullovers or sweater get their name from the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland. According to traditions, a customary Aran Jumper has an off-white color. These jumpers are adorned with cable patterns on the body and sleeves. Historic accounts suggest that Aran sweaters were knitted using unscoured wool that retained its natural oils or lanolin. This makes the garment water-resistant. Aran sweaters are therefore the perfect present for a spouse, children, or close friends. Make sure they are green or the person getting the gift might get pinched. Orange is definitely a no-no for St. Patrick’s Day presents.
St. Patrick’s Day Frames and Plaques
No matter what the occasion, you can’t go wrong with a beautiful wall plaque or a statement frame. To make the gift even more special, go with the gold or brass colored frames. An undertone of green and orange will invoke warm feelings for the occasion. Many of these gorgeous plaques have an iconic Irish phrase written on them."Céad Míle Fáilte," which translates to "A hundred thousand welcomes" is one of these beautiful phrases. Place a picture that is very dear to you in one of these frames. This souvenir will surely be a hit long after St. Patrick’s Day has passed.

drinking mugs perfectly emulate the old town middle age aesthetic for you to cherish. The hand-carved, beautifully crafted vessels give a novel feeling for your toasts and sips.

Irish Music
If you have a friend who hails from Ireland, don’t hesitate in giving good music as a gift. This gift can take many forms. It can be Irish performers’ concert tickets, music CDs or Blu-rays, Vinyl albums, or even online gift cards to music subscription services. The significance of music in an Irish person’s life is immense. The language itself is extremely musical with lilting vowels and rolling consonants. The Irish children grow up learning jigs and dancing to tunes. This gives them a sense of connection with their motherland. Make your Irish friends the luckiest people this St. Patrick’s Day and give them the gift of sound. Your non-Irish friends will appreciate this as well.
