Okay, you may not want to hang a carrot in your succah, but apples and pomegranites certainly work for both Rosh HaShana and succot, and you can then add some grapes and olives and figs later if you so desire.

Watercolor Still Life Fruit Exercise Is Great For All Ages!
My fourteen year old daughter is once again taking painting lessons, this time with a teacher who learned painting as a trade in Russia, so the lessons are precise and skill oriented, which can be a good thing, though not exactly how art is taught in the USA generally. Nonetheless since we are seeing great results with piano lessons from our teacher who is from the Ukraine, I'm trying to be a bit open minded as far as teaching techniques go!

Geometric Woven String Star Gift Toppers And Place Cards
Geometric string stars are so fun to weave, and they also happen to look great at gift toppers and gift tags! I just love how they look on my hand stamped olive branch wrapping paper, and if you're making them for your own family, well, you can save them afterwards to make a geometric string star garland!

Hanukkah Menorah Craft Using Recycled Cereal Box Cardboard!
I have been busy making the cutest Hanukkah menorahs ever, using cereal box cardboard and a template that I'm planning to have in my shop any day now. The month before Hanukkah is always super crazy for me, and while the template isn't 100% ready, I did want to put the idea out there for those who are thinking about getting serious with the holiday preparations. These cardboard menorahs can be made in a few sizes and they are equally great as centerpieces or displayed around the house. I have a bunch on my piano right now and it looks fabulous! And if you'd like to make a cardboard menorah…
