Hanukkah is just around the corner and momstown is the place to find all your craft ideas for creating a special festive of lights for your family!

1. This easy to make star ornament could work for a Christmas or a Hanukkah decoration. This one is personalized with a school photo stuck in the middle.

What you need:

• Construction paper or cardstock
• Picture of your child
• Scissors
• Glue
• Raffia or ribbon for hanging
• Decorations of any kind – we used buttons and stickers

Cut out two stars (double up the paper and cut them together so they are the same size. Cut a circular hole in one of the stars. Place the photo between the two stars so that the child’s face is showing through. Glue the stars together.

Have your child decorate the star any way they would like. Punch a hole in the top and string ribbon or raffia through – hang on the tree or in a window for holiday decorating!

2. Classified Mom shared this beautiful Star of David mosaic craft – I just love the colours! Imagine this in a window – gorgeous yet simple for little hands to make. Classfied Mom runs a Sunday Showcase link party every week – it’s a great place for craft inspiration!

3. Blue and White paper chains: You can use traditional blue and white construction paper or printed scrapbooking paper or wrapping paper.  It’s fun, inexpensive, and lasts the whole holiday!

4. The Star of David is such an important symbol of Hanukkah. Use this holiday to create an alphabet “S for Star” craft like the one here!  Add to your alphabet with an “H for Hanukkah” and add holiday stickers or trace dreidel or candle cookie cutters!

5. Using shades of blue, wrap any plain glass votive holder or vase to create these special centrepieces or give them to grandparents for a holiday gift!
