DIY Fairy Lights Holiday Centerpiece
This post is sponsored by DHgate.com Looking for a simple yet festive centerpiece this holiday season? Look no further, this DIY for copper wire fairy lights is so simple, you’ve got this! I actually made this plant in a house (it’s a green house!) centerpiece for my son’s bar mitzvah, and made about 20 of them in no time……the biggest time investment was trying to get all those metal frame houses back home. For the bar mitzvah I bought a bunch of flowering plants and placed them in white ceramic pots that I had on hand from the last bar mitzvah, and the results were gorgeous. Whether or not you…

Staghorn Fern Centerpiece Is Perfect In The Succah!
Today is the last day of Succot, sorry to say, and I’ve been working hard to photograph my succah, as well as keeping the family fed and happy, and preparing for the next holiday, Simchat Torah, in which we actually leave our succahs, come into our disorganized homes and celebrate the Torah, like in a big way, with lots of dancing and singing. Lest I digress, I just wanted to share wtih you my all time favorite centerpiece, a staghorn fern! I’ve been using this very staghorn fern, planted in soil, on my dining room table since Shavuot, namely in May, and I still love it. I’ll admit, when I…

DIY Pineapple Top Plant In Just MInutes Makes A Great Summer Centerpiece!
Pineapples are a motif that is all the rage right now, so why not go all the way and make some real plants from pineapple tops. It only takes a few minutes and you also get to enjoy the pineapple, a healthy way to add sweets to your next party. Truthfully pineapple top plants would make great party centerpieces, especially since you can then make platters of fresh pineapple to serve, and you can let guests take them home as party favors. What can I say, I'm just crazy about this idea, and was so thrilled when my husband brought home a pineapple whose top was in good condition…….not to…

Guitar Themed Party Centerpiece Is Perfect For Dessert Bar Or Buffet
For my son's guitar themed birthday party I spent quite a few hours making cardboard guitars, though I really had no concrete idea how I'd use them! The great thing about not planning ahead when it comes to making party decorations is that A} you save money as you use what you have on hand B} you use up supplies in your stash that have been hanging around for way too long and C) it really forces you to get creative, the best part of all! Okay, it is true, this project is basically recycled cardboard and just a bit of cotton yarn, so I didn't really use up anything…

A Ten Minute Felt Chrysanthemum Made From A Strip
The Jewish holiday of Shavuous, (in which, among other traditions, we decorate our homes with flowers and greenery to celebrate the receiving of the Torah on Mt. Sinai) is tomorrow night, so with the idea of some really large felt flower napkin rings for our holiday table in mind, yet not a lot of time, I knew I needed a felt flower that would be quick to make and great looking! A quick felt flower is without a doubt one made by rolling a strip of felt, yet that are many variations on the technique with quite different looking results. (I've made felt rose buds, way back when, another flower…
