Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! With Hanukkah approaching in about 3 weeks, it is time to get crafting, and I hope to share some of the fun I’ve been up to, just still not up and running with the old computer which now looks like it may have seen its final days, sigh.

Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday, thanks so much for joining me here! With winter approaching now is a perfect time to get out those knitting needles and crochet hooks, and why not make some handmade gifts to warm up loved ones or even better, strangers without homes or newborns in need of hats.

A storm and huge gusts of wind toppled many succahs on the second day of the holiday, forcing us to go into our homes for part of the holiday, but now with just 3 days left the sun is out and all is dry!
