St. Patrick’s Day is all about green clothes, green foods, shamrock, leprechauns, alcohol, and wild celebrations. Did you know that blue color was originally the color of the St. Patrick’s Day but over the time green has taken its place.
It’s believed that green associates really well with St. Patrick’s Day because of Ireland’s rolling green hills and shamrock covered fields. Shamrock is also the symbol of Ireland and the legend says that St. Patrick used it to explain the Holy Trinity to the Celts. And above all, the nickname of Ireland is “The Emerald Isle.” So what a better color to celebrate the patron saint of Ireland than a color green.
