Simple Hanukkah Kid’s Craft That Steals The Show!
Here’s a fun idea for turning your kid’s drawings into cute holiday decorations, and not only does it only take a few minutes, but it sure beats putting them on the fridge! And once the holiday or occasion is over, you can simply remove the lights and store flat until next year. And before you know it you just might have a whole gallery full of fun kid’s art to pull out any time. It also just occurred to me to gently remind you as well that when we make an effort to show our kids how much we love their art, they’ll be encouraged to make more! Okay, lets…

Crocheted T-Shirt Yarn Star Trivet
I originally posted this fun gift idea in 2016, and it still looks great, so dusting it off to share once again, enjoy! It is pouring rain outside and I have the luxury of spending a few days to do some crafting for Chanukah, and the first thing that came to mind was to try and use up all the t-shirt yarn that I have (so that I can justify buying more, of course!) and that is how these crochted star trivets were born, and I just love them! This is a quick gift to whip up in multiples for holiday giving and would be perfect together with an assortment of…

Quilling Crafts For Hanukkah: A Dreidel Wall Hanging
I am reposting this Hanukkah quilling craft as now is the time to delve into something new! And as a result of my computer still living in the repair shop I am unable to share with you all the creative results of not having a computer to work on! Okay, it is true I am typing this on a laptop, but one without my programs etc. I am in the middle of a huge storm of creativity and looking forward to sharing some of that with you soon, in the mean time, give quilling a try! As you can see, I really had a great time creating a series of…

Quilled Paper Craft For Hanukkah: A Festive Menorah
It is true, my quilled paper crafts for Hanukkah were created a few years ago, but since my computer is still in the sick ward a good hour’s drive from home, and quilling is still timely, I thought I’d share these fun projects with you once again, so enjoy! Ah yes and now is a great time to try something new: longer nights perfect for crafting and with the holiday on the distant horizon you can truly indulge yourself! Hanukkah is eight glorious days long, which means one can still find some time to get crafting, right? This year I tried quilled paper for the first time, and I just…

Recylables To Collect Now For Chanukah Crafting!
The 8 day long Jewish holiday of Chanukah starts on the eve of December 22, which means now is the time to start planning all the amazing crafts we can do to make this holiday extra special for our families and friends! Seven weeks or so may seem like a long time, but truly it is not, so NOW is the time to start collecting recyclables so that in another few weeks or so you’ll have some of the supplies you’ll need on hand to get crafting! I have already started this process, then again I save recyclables all year long, and I”ll admit I often pull things out the…

Hanukkah Candle Drip Art With The Leftovers!
After eight joyful nights of Hanukkah, shining light into the very darkest corners, you might just have some leftover candles? (We light our main Chanukah menorah using olive oil, but use candles for some smaller chanukiahs.) Don’t toss them, spend a few moments of pressure-free creativity, and create something with the drips. This of course is only with adult supervision, or for teens, and maybe even Mom or Dad could use a little creative time after a hectic week-plus of celebrations? (Don’t worry about me, I know how to take that time when possible, you should see my kitchen table right about now……) So instead of trying to save those…
