Craft : Hand-Crafted Clay Menorahs
Printer Friendly Version
Craft Picture


Create a wonderful clay menorah from your handprints!

Craft Project Directions:
To make this project you will need clay (one that will air dry), craft sticks, a pencil, birthday candle holders, birthday candles, and your hands. Take the clay and knead and flatten it. Next trace or carve out your hands from the clay using a craft stick. Next take your two clay hands, overlap the thumbs and press the hands together. Now stand up the clay hands so that fingers are facing upwards towards the ceiling. Now take your pencil and make a hole in the top of each finger. Place small birthday candle holders in holes in the tops of the clay fingers which you just made with your pencil. There will be eight fingers with eight candles- for every night of Hanukkah and the one candle in the thumbs, called the Shamash, to light the others. Let the menorah dry and then paint the menorah if you want. Add candles.
