You can whip this paper party garland up in mere minutes, assuming you’ve got scissors and the right paper on hand! Picture this: with the party guests arriving in less than fiveteen minutes I still had an empty stretch of string running between two columns and in the center of the room. Yikes!

Simple Giant Paper Peacock Party Decor
A big huge PHEW — my late night efforts to assemble some decorations for our women’s Purim party were mostly a success, and now I have a few things to share! While I had a colorful “gan eden” garden theme in mind, I actually only got as far as the birds for the garden, together with a few huge flowers. Fortunately that turned out to be enough as my original idea would have taken days to make and more time than I had to assemble, not to mention quite likely overkill. So first of all I’ll share with you my giant paper peacock, which is just as cute as can…

Simple DIY Crepe Paper Flowers To Make Now!
I was just thinking that I should make some tissue paper flowers like those that used to grace our Purim table years ago, but it turns out so much time has passed that I actually just realized that the most successful flowers were made from crepe paper! Yes, tissue paper is wonderful too, and I have used it numerous times for flowers, but there is something about the crepe paper and its texture that just makes the whole project that much lovelier. I mean really, look at the photo, who isn’t running to the store to buy some basic crepe paper? Confession: this photo was taken 9 (gasp) years ago,…

DIY Stand-Up Cardboard Huskies For Your Winter Table
At long last I have finally found the time to share with you one of the favorite crafts I made for our family Chanukah birthday party: stand-up cardboard huskies, courtesy of Mr. Printables! And at the birthday party when the huskies made their debut, they were actually pulling the birthday cake! Yes, that birthday cake with the sparkly red flags that I shared a while back. (Note to self and everyone else: try to have everything ready the day before, even the cake, so you’ll have time to photograph it all nicely!) Now it is too late to photograph the huskies pulling the cake and I do have a photo…
