Origami Dove For Chanukah
Chanukah starts tomorrow night, and I am running behind with my plans for origami decorations, but I did manage to make a few origami doves with olive branches to share with you, and hopefully my plans for an origami wall hanging, origami cake toppers (for a birthday tomorrow night on the 1st night of Chanukah) and an origami garland or two will materialize tonight. I am actually thinking that this origami dove would be great done in my giant origami style, so stay tuned for that, which seems much more likely than a wall hanging, hmmmm. Origami is a great craft for all ages, and it is something one can…

Simple Crochet Projects for Hanukkah!
Above: A beloved upcycled t-shirt yarn bowl that we use to hold a huge collection of dreidels. Crochet projects for Hanukkah? Of course, because as you all know, I love to crochet, and so crocheting is often a big part of my hanukkah crafting! With the holiday approaching quite quickly I thought I’d share some crochet projects from the archives to get you started, as the time is now! Last year I made little gift baskets crocheted using hardware store string with a chain stitch on top of that to strengthen the whole thing….which I have yet to share, but maybe later in the week? Fortunately for me I somehow…

Welcome To Craft Schooling Sunday!
Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! With Chanukah starting this Thursday night I have many loose ends to tie up, as well as some birthday decorations to make, big time. And with my teen daughter now away at school, the baking has falen back in my plate, and so a birthday cake has to fit into the plans as well. Of course the cake topper will be my usual flags or maybe some big numbers, (or origami 3D stars) depending on how the other decorations fly! I also have to make some wall hangings from all the chanukah origami I whipped up last week,…

Origami Star Of David In 3 Minutes!
If you are folding some origami dreidels then you might just want an origami star of david or 20, to make a Chanukah garland or mobile. I looked into all the ways that one can make an origami star of david, and even stopped part way through the 15 minute folding adventure, as I need origami elements that can be made fairly quickly. So presenting the three minute origami star of David, that can really be made in 3 minutes, once you get the folding sequence down pat. Now, I do have to say, that while I am generally not interested in promoting creative activities that require perfection, origami unfortunately…
