Ten Plagues Passover Seder Craft For Kids
This ten plagues craft is from the archives, but still just too cute not to feature again, so enjoy! And of course, adults can join in on the fun too! A good four plus years ago I had a group of fearless crafters, namely boys ages 7-10 who enthusiastically spent a few hours making a fun ten plagues passover craft! This is actually a mini version of the Ten Plagues Placards that I made a few years back, and certainly a little easier for kids to make themselves. Set the kids up with just a few simple supplies, and this project could literally occupy them for hours! I’m sure that…

Painted Pyramids For Passover Crafting
As you may have noticed I’m currently exploring painting with gouache, and having a great time. In fact I’d like to drop everything else and just paint……okay maybe just a bit everyday at this point, because I just love the vivid matte color one can easily achieve with gouache. And yes indeed, that is why pattern designers have always used gouache for creating patterns……it is quite wonderful really. As you can see I had the idea to paint some bright geometric pyramids to make some whimsical Passover decorations, and here are the results thus far. As a family friendly craft, those who are able could paint the pyramids and cut…

How To Doodle A Sun Using A Pen And Some Paint
Passover is right around the corner, so how about starting by doodling a few elements that can be used to set the stage for the Passover story? Lets start with that oh so hot desert sun that the Jewish people certainly experienced in Egypt! There are so many ways to draw the sun, and one can and should spend a little time working on a few ideas to make your own version of this sun doodle. These were actually my second attempt, and I used the best ideas from my first try, which produced some which were more like stars! Doodling on a ground of color, in this case circles…

Isn’t that just the way it goes, that when I have a long list of things to do that creative voice in my head insists on venting some energy? So there you have it folks, at one of the busiest times of year I suddenly find myself experimenting with gouache and for the first time ever, some fun hand lettering with really bright and decorative letter forms!

After the holiday rush I decided that it was truly time to start dedicating some time to learning some new artsy skills, which really doesn’t have to take a whole lot of time or money courtesy of skillshare, which I am happy to say is truly an amazing site with sooooo many great things to learn.

DIY Simple Flower Napkin Rings Lovely For Any Occassion!
We made these very simple yet oh so lovely flower napkin rings in just minutes to use on our Passover table, but truthfully they'd be great for just about any occasion, especially weddings, sheva brachas, or any time really! They are so simple to make that you truthfully could make a hundred or so in no time. I packed these away with the Passover dishes so that we can use them again next year, but am already thinking about looking for some larger flowers to use on our table for the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, in which we decorate out homes with flowers and greenery, perfect! Ready to make some,…
