Origami Star Of David In 3 Minutes!
If you are folding some origami dreidels then you might just want an origami star of david or 20, to make a Chanukah garland or mobile. I looked into all the ways that one can make an origami star of david, and even stopped part way through the 15 minute folding adventure, as I need origami elements that can be made fairly quickly. So presenting the three minute origami star of David, that can really be made in 3 minutes, once you get the folding sequence down pat. Now, I do have to say, that while I am generally not interested in promoting creative activities that require perfection, origami unfortunately…

Origami Dreidel Craft For Chanukah
Origami dreidels are simple to make and can be used in so many fun ways, for example for Chanukah garlands, Chanukah place cards, Chanukah greeting cards, Chanukah cake/doughnut toppers, and even as Chanukah gift tags! So get started today making origami dreidels in a range of colors/patterns and sizes to fill your home with holiday cheer! I have altered the traditional dreidel instructions to make an origami dreidel that I think is a bit more pleasing to the eye, and I’ve indicated that extra step in the instructions that I’ve compiled. While you can of course choose to make solid colored dreidels, they look just so much cuter with the…

Simple Origami Jumping Frogs Are The Perfect Passover Craft
With the Jewish holiday of Passover arriving on Wednesday night, ready or not, now might be the time to spend just a few minutes making a cute craft to grace your Passover seder table? I’ll admit, despite high hopes of having time for a few simple crafts myself that wouldn’t be realistic right now as while my kitchen (the most important part) is kosher for Passover and I can start cooking, there are other areas in the house that need attention, not to mention the container garden (I got the boys and husband to mostly do that yesterday, phew) and ugh, my office/studio, which is always the big ugly monster…

Giant Origami Pyramids Passover Centerpiece
With Passover starting on Wednesday night, now is a great time to get the family busy with some simple decorations to help make things a bit more cheerful than they might be, sigh. Those who might generally opt for a very elegant Passover table are likely going simple this year as well, and these origami pyramids can of course also be made from metallic paper which could be that perfect combination of elegant and crafty. I am re-posting this craft from a few years back as I am busy getting the house and the kitchen, and for the first time in years, even my studio, clean and organized and ready…

DIY Origami Crane Mobile To Welcome Spring
After sharing with you my photos of cranes migrating over Northern Israel I realized that origami cranes are a perfect craft right now, so I’ve dusted off my origami crane mobile from 8 years ago to present to you once again! While most of the origami I’ve done lately has been giant origami to use as wall decor for Purim (giant origami clowns here, giant origami birds here), or table decor for a birthday party, (giant origami stand up giraffes, here) making origami cranes using actual origami paper is just so very satisfying, and the results are truly delightful. Add an extra dose of cuteness by including some pom poms…

Giant And Elegant Origami Apples Are Perfect For Any Fall Occasion
Origami apples are so simple to make and are the perfect craft to whip up right now! Fill a basket with them to use as a centerpiece, use them as place cards, hang them mobile style or make a bunch and scatter them around the house. (Or save this idea and gift a whole basket full to your teacher!) The best part is they look great everywhere and any where, and would make cute little Rosh HaShana gifts as well. Attach a tag that is a card and you’ll surely warm the hearts of all your recipients! I used these very apples as apple centerpieces for a Rosh Chodesh party,…
