17 St. Patrick’s Day Instagram Captions That Aren’t Four Leaf Clover Emojis

St. Patrick's Day is almost here, which means it's just about the right time to start planning your green-hued Instagrams. It's never too early to brainstorm St. Patrick's Day Instagram caption ideas, because we all know picking a caption is the hardest part. You're bound to get few great snaps on the holiday, but what's a great picture without a great caption? Nothing slows down a social media post making its way into the internet like you being unsure of a caption. We've all been there: you type out a few options, run them by your friends, and if you don't get the reaction you were hoping for, you decide to take a break before eventually giving up. Sometimes, you end up not even posting your awesome picture because you're not in love with your caption. And then that picture just stays in the Instagram drafts folder, which is basically a purgatory. That picture is never getting posted, and you know it.

Forget about being unsure of a caption this year, though — I got you covered! Here, I've pulled together a list of captions that you can use for your Instagram pictures this St. Patrick's Day. Just copy a few into your phone and save them for later. And yes, you can do better than "Kiss me, I'm Irish," as a caption — especially if you're not Irish. Let's get creative this year!
