Hanukkah is the Jewish Festival of Lights and it’s a beautiful tradition that commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple of Jerusalem. During Hanukkah, on each of the eight nights, a candle is lit in a special menorah (candelabra) called a 'hanukkiyah' to celebrate the miracle of oil lasting eight days.
You can easily create a beautiful Hanukkah tablescape in just minutes without breaking the bank, thanks to all the themed merchandise available at Party City.

Instructions:

2. Place the hanukkiyah in the middle of the table on top of a drip tray. You can have as many menorahs as you wish, since the idea is celebrate light.
3. Place platters for the traditional fried foods served during Hanukkah, like potato latkes and donuts (called sufganiyots) so everybody can help themselves. In another serving bowl, put milk chocolate or chocolate coins called gelt. Don’t forget to put napkins nearby.
