Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Today is the Jewish holiday of Shavuos, in which we celebrate the receiving of the Torah on Mt. Sinai, and so I am most certainly not on the computer, and this post was written before the holiday and posted automatically by my blog at a time when I am unplugged. Now, throwing a virtual party on a Jewish holiday isn’t exactly the best thing to do, but in order not to inconvenience all those who stop by expecting a party I decided that this time I’d just let the party go on as usual, though of course I’ll be in another place entirely. What will…

Quick Shavuos Craft For Kids With Adorable Results!
Shavuos starts Saturday night, and with shabbos coming first, now would be the time to whip up some last minute crafts……you know, the kind that aren’t too messy and that the kids can do on their own so that the adults can concentrate on all the tasks that need to be accomplished in preparation for the holiday. Ah yes, and a craft that is fun for all ages is certainly in order as well, so I now present to you my tissue paper stand-up Har Sinai, which is a perfect decoration for Shavuot and quick to make. Little ones can certainly crumple up paper and dip it in glue, while…

Sefer Torah Candy For Shavous Or A Bar Mitzvah!
LIttle sefer Torah candy party favors are so very cute and perfect not only for bar mitzvahs but also for Shavuos and Simchas Torah. Yes, it is true I am not a fan of candy so the fact that I made 150 of these for my son’s bar mitzvah was a shock to some of my friends, but hey, sometimes you just gotta join the crowd and forget that candy isn’t something anyone should eat? While I had hoped that my daughter would volunteer to make 150 chocolate tefillins to put in our little party favor boxes, (she did not take on that task given that she made all the…

Party Favor Boxes With Custom Hebrew Letter Logo
We love the idea of treating our guests to a sweet little party favor, and so for my son’s bar mitzvah celebration last night each guest received a small favor box on their plate. These little boxes are quite simple to assemble once you have the contents, the boxes and the custom label and really add a nice touch to any celebration. I am now going to start offering my services to the world at large, so if any of you would like a custom hebrew letter logo (like the one seen here on the box labels) to be used for a bar mitzvah, wedding, anniversary, or new baby…

DIY Floral Centerpiece Is Gorgeous And Budget Friendly
Aren’t these flowers just gorgeous? Now is the time to take a trip to your local nursery, buy some inexpensive pots of flowering plants, and make a gorgeous DIY floral centerpiece. You can assemble a stunning floral arrangemet in minutes that is so budget friendly you’ll only buy cut flowers during the winter! Okay, maybe you’d rather spend a small fortune on truly gorgeous bouquets, but around here flowers rarely last more than a week, as opposed to flowering plants that we can enjoy for months. Ah yes, and I just love the natural look of using flowering plants that come with their own greenery! I actually purchased all these little…

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! The Jewish holiday of Shavuos is coming up in just one week, so now is the time to start thinking about greenery and flowers which we use to decorate our homes in honor of this joyful holiday. I won’t be thinking about Shavuos until Tuesday as right now we are in full Bar Mitzvah prep mode……though since the Bar Mitzvah centerpieces are going to be assembled using gorgeous flowering plants I may just use them in my home before planting them in my container garden, yippee! I think you’ll find more than a few great ideas to get…
