While holiday enthusiasts are breaking out their Christmas trees and stockings, some of us are getting into the spirit a little differently. As a member of the tribe, December is high time for latkes and dreidels. And while our celebrations are truly lit (it’s the Festival of Lights, after all!) the merch selection has never quite had the same allure as the magic of Christmas.
The eight nights of Hanukkah begin on December 25 this year, and we’re on a mission to elevate the classic blue and silver while helping you answer the most challenging question of our time: “what should I buy for my Jewish friends, anyway?” Whether you're looking to ditch the kitsch or fully lean into the uniqueness being one of the Chosen people, here are 24 items that should be on your Hanukkah decorations list.
Our favorite Hanukkah decorations for 2024:
Jonathan Adler
Jonathan Adler Dachsund Menorah
I just want an entire zoo of these Jonathan Adler menorahs.
Piecework Puzzles
Piecework Puzzles Hanukkah Cookie Tin
There're truly no better way to celebrate than with jelly donuts, dreidels and gelt – except maybe in puzzle form.
Adara Rituals
Adara Rituals Talia Dreidel Terrarium
Dreidel-shaped terrariums are the Hanukkah decorations extra I never know I needed. Add a plant for some greenery or dress them up with fairy lights!
Susan Alexandra
Susan Alexandra Heirloom Tomato Menorah
If Betsey Johnson were to create a capsule Hanukkah collection, this menorah would undoubtedly be a part.
Garnet Hill
Garnet Hill Personalized Hook Wool Pillow
We love a personalization moment, especially when it's as cozy as this pillow.
Adara Rituals
Adara Rituals Liora Hurrican Candle Holder
Candle holders shaped like the Star of David? Yes please!
Wayfair
Godinger Contemporary Modern Menorah
For a more modern take, we love this marble menorah (with pops of gold, of course).
Adara Rituals
Adara Rituals Nava Happy Hanukkah Beaded Sign
ICYMI, it's Hanukkah. This beaded sign is giving DIY vibes without all the effort.
Lele Sadoughi
Lele Sadoughi Indigo Crystal Dreidel Headband
Reigning queen of headbands, Lele Sadoughi, truly has something for everyone. I'll take your ugly Christmas sweater and raise you one (actually cute) dreidel headband.
abc Home
abc Home Menorah Ornament
We may not have Christmas trees, but *some of us* have leaned into the Hanukkah bush movement. 👀 No judgement here, though -- unless, of course, you don't decorate yours with on-theme ornaments like this.
Tchotchke
Tchotchke Bubble Ceramic Menorah
This ultra cool bubble menorah is a vibe. Buy it for your most grown up friend who actually has their life together.
Etsy

It was only a matter of time until the wooden dreidels of yore got a luxe upgrade.
Piecework
Chefaine Yiddish Cocktail Napkins (Set of Four)
Is there anything more Jewish than busting out a random Yiddish word at the slightest inconvenience? No, there's not -- which is why these cocktail napkins are a tongue-in-cheek addition to any dinner party.
Bloomingdale's
Apeloig Collection Menorah
Yes, this is a Barbiecore menorah. And yes, my life is now complete.

Fans may be surprised to know Zoë Kravtiz and Channing Tatum didn't know each other before she shared her idea for Blink Twice.

Though her dad, Lenny Kravitz announced he's excited for the couple's wedding (via Entertainment Tonight), Zoë admitted that she and Channing have talked about it "in passing," (via Esquire).
Also, you might want to erase the image of Zoë being a mother from your brain because she doesn't think she'll be taking on that role. It's something she used to be scared to admit, but feels more comfortable talking about these days (via Esquire).
"There’s a lot of pressure on women to have children, and there’s a feeling that if you don’t, you don’t have purpose here. But this movie, it feels like I gave birth," she said.

“Wedding plans were looming, but neither of them were rushing to the altar,” a source told Us Weekly, adding that their relaxed mindset ended up putting "a lot of pressure" on them. “Ultimately once [Blink Twice] ended, they realized they were on different pages with what they wanted. It fizzled fast after their press tour wrapped.”
A Page Six source reaffirms that the relationship ended on good terms, and even says the couple has “been in touch” and has “no bad blood” between them. “There was no dramatic falling out between Channing and Zoë. They really just grew apart and decided it was best for them to go their separate ways,” they say. They "both handled the breakup very maturely [but] came to a mutual realization that they were better off friends than romantic partners.”
Despite the breakup, another Page Six source says that Zoë Kravitz had a blast at a Halloween party. “She was in a good mood and seemed really happy,” they say, remembering that she was “dancing all night and having cocktails...having a great time” and “was so cute and nice.”
A source later told People that Channing Tatum is "doing well" following their breakup, adding that "he's focused on a new movie project in [North Carolina.] And he's spending time with his daughter when he's off."

Wallpaper Tips

York Wall Coverings Evening Star Geometric
Try two complementary wallpapers, like a floral and a graphic, for an eclectic look.
Wallpaper Tips:
- Work with a buddy: Hanging wallpaper on a ceiling can be tricky, so having an extra set of hands can make it much easier.
- Use a temporary support: For longer strips, you might need to support the wallpaper temporarily with painter's tape until it's actually secured.
- Consider your lighting situation: When choosing wallpaper, keep in mind how ceiling lighting will affect the wallpaper color and pattern. Make sure to test a swatch by taping it to the ceiling and observing the day and night light.

Painting Tips
- Paint in natural light: If possible, paint during the day when natural light is brightest. This helps you catch any missed spots or uneven coverage more easily.
- Start with the edges: Use a brush to “cut in” around the edges of the ceiling, creating a border. This makes it easier to roll paint up to the edges without bumping into walls or light fixtures.
- Use a pole extension: An extension pole gives you better control, minimizes neck strain, and helps you achieve an even coat.
- Roll in one direction, then cross-roll: Apply the first coat by rolling in one direction, usually parallel to the longest wall. Then, cross-roll by going perpendicular to the first direction to avoid streaks.
- Let each coat dry. This is the kind of project you don't want to rush, so let your layers dry before applying another coat. The paint can should say drying times for the best finish!
