Sukkah with flaps that open up to see pic of child holding lulav & esrog.

Bumblebee cutout with circle cut picture of child in the body.

Torah with picture.

Child at kosel.

Laminated preferred, so it will last from year to year and I don't need to rush out erev YT to do it!

Thanks! These are great!

How is the Sukkah/Torah/kosel made?

I would do popsicle sticks for the sukkah but that's hard to laminate...

Do I just use a coloring page of the kosel?

My son did a sukkah from popsicle sticks with green glitter for schach. Was very cute. But no pic of him and no lamination- does seem nicer with the pic and difficult to laminate with the sticks. But isn't it hard to laminate if it has flaps anyway? Or do you laminate the pic of him page and the sukkah page separately and then stick them together and cut the flaps?

So how about some colorful strips of paper stuck on for the sukkah boards? And glitter for the schach?

My funniest whatsapp clip is a man who creates a "glitter bomb" to 'foil' (ha. Bad pun) the evil intentions of people who steal things off his porch. So he, being an engineer, creates, inside an Apple product box, a bomb that has a camera attached. Look it up. The thieves are... Well, let's just say, glittered. Very glittered. And glitter? It NEVER EVER comes off completely.

Carry on..

You, my dear anonymous but adorable human, are comparing apples and tampons.

One is a delicious frosting that makes the world tolerable. The other is a secret weapon used by kindergarten teachers to destroy our homes, thereby distracting us from complaining when our kid comes home with an uncalled for haircut. See, we're too busy trying to pry a green glitter off our husband's eyelid to notice the lob job.

I forgot the flag with the pic of child holding a stuffed Torah. We use them for decorations of the sukkah the next year if they're laminated.

We have a Succah decoration It’s a brown 8 x 11 horizontal paper with an opening for the entrance way. That’s where the photo of my son holding a lilac and esrog is. On top of that is a green piece of paper cut out in a way to resemble schach. The kids glued popsicle stick (bamboo) on top of that. I wrap it in a ziploc bag and pin it to the wall in a way that it appears to be laminated.

My kids made a torah for simchas Torah out of seltzer bottles. They wrapped the outside with felt paper and it had. A picture of them holding a stuffed Torah. They also put pretty gems on it.

My favorite is one that my son made years ago, it has his picture in the center and all around him are pictures of gedolim and there's a pasuk saying 'zeh hakatan, gadol yihiyeh'.
