Irish Blessing Gifts

Irish Blessing gifts are wonderful keepsake gifts for all occasions, but I really love to give them for housewarming gifts. Irish art incorporates so many spiritual and beautiful images that can be both traditional and modern in design. Take the Irish Blessing Wall Hanging to the right. The Celtic Knot incorporated into the design is very simple and modern. The tiles that contain the blessing are resin designed to look like wood. It measures 10.75 square so it is a substantial wall plaque that will look wonderful in any room of the house. Established families and newlyweds will love this Irish gift.

The stunning Irish Cross shown to the left incorporates a traditional cross and Claddagh. Many of my friends - even those that aren't Irish - are choosing Claddagh wedding rings. If this is the case for a couple that you're looking for a wedding gift or engagement gift, then this is the perfect Irish gift for them. The Irish cross design measures 10 inches tall and is accented beautifully in soft green. You don't have to be Irish or religious to enjoy the blessing "May your home be filled with laughter May your pockets be filled with gold And may you have all the happiness Your Irish heart can hold."

When you've been invited to a St. Patrick's Day dinner of corned beef and cabbage and want to bring along an Irish host gift, this Irish Blessing shamrock dish is a great St. Patrick's Day gift. Your host and hostess will love incorporating it into their everyday home decor or perhaps just using it on special occasions. The shamrock is often a symbol of luck and prosperity. This beautiful two-tone green shamrock dish is also rimmed in smaller shamrocks. One of the most famous Irish blessings is included on it. Don't be surprised if this Good Luck dish comes out on special college football days as well!

A suncatcher is often a gift that I bring to a person who is facing a long recuperation period after a major illness or injury. If they will be spending a lot of time in bed, they can hang this in their window to brighten their day. The Irish Blessing is also a wonderful way to wish them well without being overly religious or sentimental. The bright green on this suncatcher features a golden yellow Celtic Knot. At 6.25 inches square it will be easily seen but won't overwhelm its surroundings. It is cheerful and uplifting.

Combine the mysticism of Celtic and Irish blessings with the glow of candlelight and you'll create a warmth and spirituality in your home. This heart-shaped candleholder holds one tealight candle. When you light it, it creates a light shining through the traditional Irish blessing. Put several of these on your dinner table for a special aura. Hearts and shamrocks are truly a winning combination. This Irish Blessing gift measures 3 inches x 4 inches x 4 inches, so it can be part of a special fireplace mantle display. You could also put it in your meditation room if you love to focus on Irish prayers and spirituality.
