Decorations

A menorah and personalized place settings set a festive tone.

 

Make a menorah that features
your favorite animals.

• Colored modeling clay
• Menorah candles
• Nontoxic paint or markers

1. Make candle holders. Form clay into a Noah's Ark for the servant candle (the shammash) and four pairs of animals for the other candles.

2. Add candles. Push a candle into the top of each shape. Remove the candles, and let the clay dry.

3. Decorate the pieces with paint or marker.

 

Personalize every place setting.

• Clear plastic cups
• Dimensional paints
• Balloons
• Ribbon

1. Decorate cups. Paint "confetti" designs on clear plastic cups with dimensional paints.

2. Attach balloons. Tie a small balloon to each cup handle with curly ribbon. Write a name on each balloon with dimensional paints.
