Growing up, I remember the frantic feeling I would get on St. Patrick’s Day, praying I could find something in my wardrobe with enough green on it to avoid getting pinched. While times have changed and children are probably not terrorizing one another for not showing any sort of “St. Paddy’s Day pride,” the tradition has stuck with me. I’m all about rocking a little green, which happens to be my favorite color!
This year, I’m going to up my St. Patrick’s Day shenanigans with a pop of green or maybe an entire head-to-toe green get-up so I’m not the only one at the bar decked in something black or neutral (I’m sorry, it’s a bad habit!). Wish me luck!
I have never met a button-down I didn’t like. Sure, you may buy this for St. Patrick’s Day thinking it’s a one-hit wonder. But trust me! A button-down with a perfect stripe will take you through spring and summer. Worn open over a bathing suit with a pair of cut-offs and a great straw tote, you will look A+ at the pool. But back to dark beer and four-leaf clovers…
Coatigans make me happy because they’re the perfect layering piece and are easy for creating a polished look. As I’ve said, I’m always drawn to black or neutral but why not really lean in and throw on this green blazer? The flared jeans make it stylish, and no one will think you’re actually trying to dress like a Leprechaun.
Last but certainly not least, this is the St. Patrick’s Day version of the ugly sweater party. It’s the play on words that does it for me, but also the fact that this can become your annual go-to AND a sleep sweatshirt is the ultimate pot of gold (def take some photos when you do wear it out, though)!

Evite SignUp Sheets offers parents, teachers and event planners customizable online forms that organizers and volunteers can access and update effortlessly. Volunteers can choose their preferred time slots, sign up for tasks or indicate what they'll bring to the event.

Creating a signup sheet has never been easier than with Evite! Here’s how to create a sheet that’s sure to make your event an absolute success:
When it comes to signup sheet information, there are some essentials to include regardless of what you’re organizing:
When adding your slot information, clearly define what people are signing up for, especially for a what-to-bring list or role assignments. If you want someone to bring healthy snacks for kids to enjoy after a game, specify that. You want your volunteers to feel confident in what they’re bringing and to make it easy for them to know what’s expected of them. It will save them time and stress (and you, too!). That being said, if you make your ask too specific (for example, asking for a hard-to-source item or something expensive), you may not end up with a volunteer for it. So be clear about what you expect, but also be reasonable!
Aside from providing the basic signup information, you can also add optional descriptions to both your entire signup sheet and individual slots. While not required, they can help guide your volunteers further and provide more information. You can add information about allergies, preferences and general info about the event. You can also add a wish list to make it easier for your volunteers to bring exactly what you need!
Signup sheet templates offer a ton of advantages for both organizers and volunteers and with Evite SignUp Sheets, you'll enjoy even more benefits than other digital and paper signup sheets! Some benefits our signup sheet templates offer include:
