Celebrate Hanukkah in Style

Add a Modern Touch to Your Hanukkah Decor

It’s that time of year again; Hanukkah is nearly upon us! This year the Celebration of Lights starts on December 10th and ends on December 18th. 

Hanukkah is a Jewish holiday traditionally celebrated with close friends and family at home. Which means, even with COVID restrictions in some areas, the spirit of Hanukkah can still be celebrated, safely! 

We love the layering of different hues of blues, whites, and bright sparkles you often see in Hanukkah decor. Don’t be afraid to mix it up this year by adding some dried natural elements to add a modern touch to your festivities. Keep reading to learn how!


Set the Room

This understated Star of David wall piece is not only beautiful, but it’s easy to make!

We created this using our Twisted Ting to make the 6-pointed star shape.

Next, add bits of natural pieces like branches from fir or pine trees.

To top it off, add small details like a cutout of a Star of David, Dried Pomegranates, and Scented Pinecones.

Short on time?

Grab one of our premade Holiday Faux Pine Wreaths at your local Home Depot! The blue tones will compliment your holiday decor perfectly. 


Come together with a Centerpiece

A centerpiece is a quick way to instantly elevate your table from everyday to something special. 

Start with a base to provide structure. Here we used one of our Holiday Faux Pine Wreaths for the starter and added a glass vase in the middle to fill with flowers and decorations to draw the eye up. We used hydrangeas for their versatility and color coordination. 

The painted Dried Pomegranates, Scented Pinecones, and Birch Branches are what takes this centerpiece to the next level.

Play around with it, have fun, and get creative! There is no one perfect way to make a centerpiece. 


Make it Special 

A surefire way to make your guests (or make your family feel like guests) is to personalize it! We love the idea of these adorable little boxes topped with a touch of sparkle and a painted Dried Pomegranate. Fill them with gelt, dreidels, or yummy latkes for later.
