Special symbols and ideas:

-The Shamrock -The first thing that you must add to your nail art design is of course the symbol of Saint Patrick day. The shamrock leaf (is a trefoil leaf of any small clover) which is used as the symbol of Ireland. You can do the four leaf clover which is said that it brings good luck to the person who finds it/ wears it.

-Rainbow - is considered to be a symbol for life, family, career, money, love health, intuition and protection. 

-The Leprechauns - these mythical creatures represents the fairy in Irish folklore. The leprechaun wears a coat and has a pointed hat, he is often portrayed as a little man with a red haired beard. It is said that if it’s captured by human, the creature will grant 3 wishes in exchange for their freedom. 

-Gold/a pot of gold - This precious metal is appreciated in Irish culture and folklore. It is said that in order to catch a leprechaun, you must lure him with gold coins.
