Hanukkah Ideas Part 2: Chinoiserie and Modern Menorahs

     A Chinoiserie Menorah and another titled, "Silver Dove." Both from the Art Institute of Chicago's Museum Shop (please note: we have no relationship with the shop, so should you decide to get one from their website your purchase will not raise funds for the Seva Project 09). They have lots of other interesting options for your Festival of Lights, so why don't you shake a tail and have a look?

    We don't light the Menorah, but I might just have to have this piece for my shrine!

    The tree is absolutely exquisite - an artwork in itself!

    Hey Kitty! Thanks for stopping by my website! I just saw your comment. I have a webpage for non-style writing and for some reason google kicks people over there sometimes instead of to Sanity Fair (if only my tech skills were as good as my color choices... :)

    That chinoiserie menorah is seriously gorgeous! Do you think anyone would notice if I just used it as a candleabra?

    Averill, no reason not to. I might! It would be really sweet as a centerpiece, in a group of 3. I think I just gave myself an idea...! xo kitty

    Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Kitty and enjoy the time with family. Hope you have some pumpkin pie. I am with you on the Thanksgiving costumes! Something has gone amiss in the style department....though good for a laugh.
