Why I Made These Pins For You
I am a graphic designer by trade and a marketing nerd from way back! So when I was thinking about something that I could make for you to use for free, I thought, “why not free Canva Pins”? (affiliate link)
I went on Pinterest to review the most popular pin styles and then made the pin templates in Canva using only free fonts and images so you can use them as is, or if you have a paid Pinterest account swap them out using Canva's huge library of images!

St. Patty's Day Pinterest Templates FAQ
Here are some awesome answers to questions you might have about St. Patricks Day or using the templates!
About St. Patricks Day
St. Patrick's Day, affectionately known as St. Patty's Day, is a cultural and religious celebration held on the 17th of March, commemorating Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. This day is marked by festive green attire, parades, and a lot of shamrocks.
My Irish friend Deb, from actual Ireland, is wicked mad that we Americans call it “St. Pattys Day”. She says that Patty is a woman's name and if we were actually going to shorten it then we should call it “St. Paddys Day” which is the male version… I think she is fighting a losing battle!
Should You Change The Templates To Suit Your Business
YES! These are a starting point to jump off of. You can totally change up the designs, use fonts that you like better or swap out pictures from the paid Canva library!
