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…

Royal Icing Doughnut Cookies Are Perfect For Beginners
Aren’t these royal icing doughnut cookies just the cutest? I don’t have the time or inclination to devote to royal icing, but my fiveteen year old daughter does, so I’m enjoying watching her progress! These doughnut cookies were made to give as part of the mishloach manot for Purim, and looked especially cute presented in boxes with a window. We did think of making coffee cup cookies to go with the doughnuts, or take out coffee cups, but we ran out of time and I don’t really thing Israelis would get it in any case. So just doughnuts it was and everyone oohed and awed! If you are thinking about…

Simple Origami Fruit Is The Perfect Last Minute Tu B’Shevat Craft
I’m really not sure how Tu B’Shevat managed to sneak up on me just like that, but that aside, with the holiday coming tomorrow night now would be the time to whip up a few fun crafts and then run to the store and buy as many kinds of fruit (and nuts) as you possibly can to truly celebrate in style! It isn’t about quantity but about variety, so go for it! And speaking of variety, with this simple origami fruit craft you really can make a variety of fruit! Think orange paper for an orange, yellow paper for a lemon, green and red paper for apples, and purple paper…

Blue And White Marshmellow Skewer Party Favor For A Bar Mitzvah Or Hanukkah?
The other night I dropped by to wish the parents of a boy in my son’s class mazel tov on their son’s bar mitzvah, and of course I had to have a look at what the mother, who is the baking queen, whipped up for this special occassion. Truthfully I didn’t look too closely as I am saying no to sugar, but I did love these blue and white marshmellow skewers, that looked great and are so simple to whip up, even a week or more before the special occasion. As I have stated before, we don’t buy candy generally but for a bar mitzvah, and we have one coming…
