Dreidel Banner

Category: Hannukah Crafts


Materials:

Scissors, Ruler, Blue and silver trimming, 9 x 12 in piece of blue felt, Cereal box, 2 silver sparkle stems, Glue, 2 old neckties, Large gold sequins

Instructions:

  1. Cut a 1-1/2 in wide strip of cardboard 9 in long to form a support for the top of the banner. Cut a piece of trim about 2 ft long and tie the ends together to form a hanger for the banner. Fold one 9-in side of the felt over the hanger and the cardboard support and glue them in place.

  2. Measuring from the point of each necktie, cut a piece from the wide end to 4-1/2 in long.

    The two cut pieces will be the dreidels for the banner.

  3. Cut a sparkle stem in half. Fold each piece in half to form a handle for each dreidel.

    Glue a handle between the front and back of the tie at the top of each dreidel shape.

    Glue the two dreidels on the blue banner.

  4. Shape one of the Hebrew letters found on a real dreidel out of pieces of sparkle stem and glue a letter to the front of each dreidel.

  5. Decorate the dreidels and the top and bottom of the banner by gluing on pretty trims.

  6. Glue four sequins to each corner of the banner to look like gelt (money).
