EAT & DRINK
This Star of David Copper Cookie Cutter is one you can use all year long. For a crunchier, lighter treat, enjoy the Matzo Project’s Cinnamon Sugar variety.
Your kitchen is calling out for these jars of deliciousness. Smear some halva spread from Brooklyn Sesame on a golden piece of toast 0r whip up some slow cooked harissa brisket with NY SHUK’s full set.
The Gefilte Manifesto, a reinvention of Old World Jewish cooking, and Breaking Breads, a deep dive into Israeli baking, are this year’s breakout Jew-ish cookbooks.
WEAR
Are you ready to convert?! One way or the other, you can wear Adornia’s convertible Star of David necklace with sparkly specks of diamond. Keep the evil eye at bay with Nadine Ghosn’s ICU Bracelet.
Go casual with Piece of History’s Aleph Letter tee. Like bagels and lox and Seth Rogen? Sport Unkosher Market’s supportive and comfy shirt.
FOR THE HOME
Matthew Ward Studio’s cups do double duty, looking fresh and providing plenty of protection from the evil eye. Colin Adrian’s glass art does exactly the same.
IIIVVVYYY’s open hand dish can hold your incense or jewelry and is a sign of protection (are you sensing a theme, here?) and represents blessings, power, and strength. In a color similar to Pantone’s pick for this year, artist Eric Weiss’ soap refers to a verse in the Bible about maintaining a clean and incorruptible heart.
THE LITTLE ONES
Cuddle your baby in a handmade latke onesie or deck your kid out in a pretty cute pierogi tee.
Keep ’em busy with these beautiful Hebrew blocks and a build-your-own-bagel card game.
FUN (a.k.a. things you never knew you needed)
Keep the luck comin’ with an enamel eye pin and stick a hearty helping of falafel to your jean jacket or tote bag, too.
Pucker up and put on some chocolate halva lip balm, grab your gefilte fish keychain, and have the night of your life.
DO GOOD
The holidays are a perfect opportunity to get AND give.
The mission of The Sanctuaries is to empower people to live creative and soulful lives. They harness the power of the creative arts to transform two of the most divisive issues of our time — race and religion — into forces for personal growth and social change.
BimBam creates fun and intelligent videos about Judaism for grownups and kids alike.
Jews come in all colors! Jimena educates and advocates on behalf of the 850,000 Jewish refugees from the Middle East and North Africa, while the Jewish Multiracial Network advances Jewish diversity through empowerment and community building with Jews of Color and Jewish multiracial families.
