For members of The Tribe, decorating for Hanukkah can feel like a giant scavenger hunt: “Does that come in blue and white?” and “Can I get it by December 18?” are questions we ask every year. Fortunately, each season it gets a teeny bit easier, and thanks to creators like Marion Haberman of My Jewish Mommy Life, there are plenty of creative tastemakers to inspire celebrators. Haberman decks her own home out in blue and gold and reminds her followers not to sleep on the grocery store for holiday help.
“I love to decorate with Hanukkah gelt — the best part is that it’s edible!” she says, also suggesting checking out big box stores like Michaels and Target, which continue to expand their Hanukkah offerings. Prefer online shopping? Then, all you’ll really need this year is this list of must-have Hanukkah décor to dress up your space in true festive style.
Pottery Barn Kids Light-Up Hanukkah House
This sweet, snow-kissed, illuminated mini home will look so cozy and festive on your mantel. We love the huge menorah glowing in the window. Just like your house!
Via Maris Trace Chanukiah
These modern, minimalist menorahs are made by a Judaica company that takes its name from “Maris,” the road connecting ancient creative civilizations in the middle east. They come in multiple colors and we love the tone-on-tone move: matching the candle to the candelabra.
CB2 Blue Onyx Star of David
Good design and Hanukkah décor are not always best friends. That’s a non-issue with this gorgeous striated onyx object d’art, which will take pride of place on your mantel without ruining your cool aesthetic.
Williams Sonoma Blue Mosaic Dinnerware Collection
Pair these azure plates with your existing white tableware for a striking holiday table-scape. Don’t store them too far out of reach when the holiday’s done though, the subtle, traditional geometric pattern means these plates work year-round.
West Elm Pretti.Cool Menorah
This gorgeous, hand-cast concrete menorah is a Brutalist-inspired centerpiece like nothing we’ve seen. It comes in black and white too, but we like the on-theme cobalt color best.
Estelle Colored Glass Champagne Coupe Stemware
Delicate and celebratory, coups in ethereal Hanukkah blue are scientifically proven to make holiday champaign taste better. Plus, if you only own flutes currently, this is a great excuse to level-up your stem wear.
Etsy Hanukkah Lawn Sign
Skip the inflatable lawn dreidel (yes, it’s a thing) and instead post this beautiful, sturdy, holiday sign in a prime spot by your front door. Select a digital version you print up yourself or have it mailed to you, ready for display.
Etsy Hanukkah Pine Cone Wreath
Made from pinecones in Maine dyed in perfect holiday colors, we love that this subtle nod to the Festival of Lights will be winter décor-appropriate long after Hanukkah is over. (P.S. Hanukkah ends Dec. 26 this year).
Nordic Ware Star of David Bundt Pan
Why make a normal Bundt cake this winter when you can make a Star of David Bundt cake instead? Look for the blue and white sprinkle sets at the grocery store and go to town with the kids.
Etsy Latkes Tea Towel
Get right to the point with these graphic kitchen towels that say: “This month, this kitchen is a latke-making machine.” Just be prepared for friends and neighbors to linger longer than usual, hoping you make good on the promise.
