Plastic Bottle Apples To Make For Rosh HaShana Gift Giving And Succah Decorating!
Plastic bottle apples, namely apples made from recycled plastic bottles are something I’ve been making for quite a few years. They make great little gift boxes or treat boxes, are quite simple to whip up, and everyone loves them. Not to mention that you help create awareness of recycling and minimizing waste, and, this project is at its best when no spray paint (big yuk, bad for health and environment!) is used, rather the bottle is filled with something red. While an apple is generally thought of as a symbol for Rosh HaShana, many have the custom of hanging apples in the succah, as it is a fall harvest fruit,…

Fun Decoupage Fabric Apples Last For Years And Are A Crowd Pleaser!
Six years ago I had the idea of decoupaging (is that a word?) fabric strips onto styrofoam apples to make fabric strip apples, and those very same apples are still holding up despite lots of wear and tear and years stuffed in a box in a damp basement! This year we didn’t find the decorations I had made last year, so called upon a bunch of old favorites, and these apples were one of the things that guests asked about repeatedly! So there you have it, crafters, these decoupage fabric strip apples are a winner! You can use them to make a centerpiece, which I just realized I have done…

Doodle Bees For Rosh HaShana!
Rosh HaShana is just around the corner, so in a pinch I realized that my folk art doodle bees didn’t need to become a wall hanging but rather would look great just taped on the wall. Yes, of course the parthership of my doodle bees and this Swedish apple poster by fine little day are what make the simplicity of taping the bees to the wall successful, then again, I think they’d look great as is as well. So dear readers, do spend the time to create some fun decorations for Rosh HaShana, but don’t get too stressed out about how to display them, simply tape them on the wall,…
