Do It Yourself Menorah Ideas For The Feast Of Dedication (Hanukkah)

REMEMBER THAT WE ONLY USE 7 BRANCH MENORAHS

Finding a Menorah sometimes can be very difficult not to mention expensive. Until you can find that perfect Menorah here are some DIY ideas for you and your families. 

I took these from Brti+CO These are just ideas and please remember our Menorah is 7 branches not 9 or 12 or whatever else the heathen comes up with. 

Exodus 25:37
"Then you shall make its lamps seven in number; and they shall mount its lamps so as to shed light on the space in front of it."

2. Gilded Wine Bottle Menorah: Everything’s better dipped in gold. Opt for a metallic menorah with this easy paint project. (via Little Miss Party Planner)

3. Glass Bottle Menorah: It doesn’t get easier than this. Start collecting those glass (or plastic) bottles now. Once you have nine, dip them in paint for a whitewashed look that’s chic enough to sit next to the challah. (via Apartment Therapy)

4. Multiple Taper Candleholder: This staggered stack of wooden pillars is sleek enough to keep out all year long. Paint them a single color or in varying shades of blue for an towering ombre effect. (via Inspired by Charm)
