Why not use some of the Czech pressed glass shamrock beads - quick and simple!

[Polly]

How about something simple in emerald glass and sterling silver, such as make a pair of earrings using #44-527 sterling shamrock charm?  And perhaps an emerald-glass heart bead for color, on an eye pin in between the ear wire and charm.

Then fill a #94-332 clover charm holder with a colorful assortment of peridot and emerald glass beads.  4 - 9 items would probably be plenty.

Four-leaf clover charms and charm-holder
Peridot leaf beads and charms
Peridot drops (use a large jump ring to hang these off the charm-holder loop)
Emerald glass hearts
Emerald glass drops (use a large jump ring for the leaves, or a head pin for the teardrop)

Here is how to make nice loops using head or eye pins.

There are many styles of sterling silver ear wires to choose from.
Sterling eye pin #37-807 should work well, and also sterling head pin #37-507, and sterling jump ring #37-250.

Most of the items I listed are sold by the 100, so this would leave you with quite a few spare parts unless you can find the supplies locally from a retail shop.
