The eight days of Hanukkah are filled with tons of delicious food, lots of gifts and families coming together to celebrate with one another. Make your Hanukkah celebration extra special this year by incorporating some of these simple DIY party ideas. With a crafting station for kids, a beautiful table setting and lots of festive decor, this Hanukkah party has something for everyone!
When preparing for our Hanukkah celebration, we set up three different areas around the room. When guests walk in they can drop off their gifts at our makeshift gift station. A long dining table is the perfect place to sit down to share a meal together while a crafting table is sure to keep children busy while the meal is being prepared or entertain them for hours after dinner.
We started setting our table by laying down a Light Blue Plastic Tablecloth down the center of the table. On top of the first runner we layered a Menorah Table Runner. A Menorah Tabletop Centerpiece was placed in the center of the table and was flanked by Gold Dot Champagne Flutes stuffed with blue and yellow tissue paper to mimic candle flames.
Each place setting consisted of a Gold Diamond Rim Clear Charger topped with a Blue Dinner Napkin and an Eight Happy Nights Paper Dinner Plate. Don't forget to include an Eight Happy Nights Paper Dessert Plate and an oh so cute Hanukkah Rubber Duck. Round out your place settings with Light Blue Premium Plastic Spoons and Forks, Mimosa Yellow Luncheon Napkins, Eight Happy Nights Beverage Napkins, Gold-Trim Plastic Tumblers and Gold Rimmed Plastic Wine Glasses filled with Gold Chocolate Candy Coins.
