Giant Origami Apples Are Perfect For Any Party
A few weeks ago, just after the holiday of Tu B’Shevat I needed to make some simple centerpieces for a community women’s party, and I decided to try my hand at making a giant version of my origami apples and fruit. Fortunately the results were fantastic, especially with the addition of some gold leaves, and the same centerpieces were re-used a few days later at a shabbos Brit, which is perfect. Now, if your gears are turning, great, just know that there is a size limit to these origami fruit, namely the width of your paper, and once they get large folding the paper isn’t difficult, but expanding the shape…

The DIY Five Minute Paper Plate Clock
Who wouldn’t want to make this fun DIY paper plate clock, especially since it takes just five minutes? True you’ll need to have the clock mechanism and a favorite paper plate on hand, but the rest is quite simply one of my very favorite projects. Add a touch of Fall color to your home, or a little something unexpected for a very small investment, and you can always change the plate when your heart desires! And now you have a great excuse to buy some cute paper plates, or a way to use up a few plates that are hanging around with no purpose in site, ready?

Floating Musical Notes Party Decor With Faux Helium Balloons
Here's an idea I came up with last night (for my son's guitar themed birthday party) that is soooooo simple and looks amazing, plus you'll be able to plan ahead and do an even better job than I did! And by the way, since Shavuot is in just four days, replace the notes with hebrew letters and you've got a great decoration to celebrate receiving the Torah! Presenting floating musical notes that look like they're being carried away by balloons, you know like music floating up to the heavens! Best of all this music themed party decor idea could be used for just about any festive occassion, so be sure…

So grab some colorful paper, or even some recycled magazine pages and lets get cutting!

Little Ladders Party Decor (Or Fun Sculptural Installation!)
My son's bar mitzvah last night was thankfullly a smashing success, and now I can hopefully find some time here and there to share with you some of the crafty details. And yes, there were many which represented hours and hours of work but I have no regrets, only that I didn't have time to do more! The best news of all is that most of the things I made for the bar mitzvah can now be used in the succah, which couldn't be better timing as the holiday of Succot starts on Sunday night! And with Yom Kippur tomorrow night, well, time is certainly on the tight side. Okay,…

Super Simple Balloon Bouquet In A Pinch (Or On The Road!)
What do you do when you find yourself in a farm house deep in the mountains of New York (and thus with not a lot of craft supplies on hand) and need to celebrate some family birthdays with minimal effort? Make a balloon bouquet! This is my first balloon bouquet as far as I can remember and was the perfect little party decoration to whip up in no time, because on account of cooking up a storm for our extended family get together there just wasn't any time left for my usual grand birthday decorating effort. (And fortunately the celebration wasn't for my kids, but rather my nieces who have…
