The Festival of Lights: 17 Fun and Festive Hanukkah Crafts, Recipes, and Products

Happy Hanukkah!  Tonight is the first night of The Festival of Lights, so, although I am not Jewish, I thought I would feature some of the fabulous Hanukkah (or is it Chanukah…..I can never figure that out!) crafts, recipes, and products that I have spotted around the web lately.  (Let’s be honest, they are almost all from Pinterest.)

When I was teaching elementary school prior to becoming a stay-at-home-mom I loved December.  I spent time on all of the winter holidays, and Hanukkah was one of my favorites because of the rich culture that is associated with this holiday.  Plus, I love the combination of blue and silver.  Don’t you?  So, to kick off the roundup let’s begin with my absolute favorite Hanukkah storybook, Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins.
