Got any candle chandeliers hanging around that you’re not using? Guess what? They can be perfect bases for hanging a collection of decorations in your Succah! (In the photo above, the red balls are sitting where cups for candles once sat.)
I really don’t expect that a whole lot of you really do have a candle chandelier collecting dust, rather this is an example of creative re-use. Look around and see if you can find something interesting to use as a part of your Succah decor. For example, hoops of any kind can be used as the base for hanging ornaments in a circle. Got a hoola hoop in the garage? Cover it by wrapping strips of fabric around its entire perimeter and you’ve got yourself a giant hoop! You see, giving things a new life isn’t so hard, you just need to look at the world in a slightly different way!
And finding a great use for something that was about to end up in the garbage is a great feeling. Let me know what you come up with!
