Another year has come and gone, can you believe it? Time flies as we live our lives, raising families, gathering experiences and earning more smile wrinkles.
The high holidays are right around the corner and this is just the time to stand still and smell the crisp night air. If we pay close attention, we might be able to notice exactly when it happens, that moment when summer starts to fade out in order to make room for autumn. When the weather gets cooler and looking at pomegranate trees, we start to see that majestic fruits in bloom.
High holidays are a favorite time of year for many, as we use this time to meet friends and family, enjoy meals together and create memories that last a lifetime. But right before we throw ourselves into that exciting portion of the season, we stop. We hit pause just for a short while, during these days, so we could think back at the year we had. Looking back, we thank Hashem for all the good we had. We appreciate our health, our strong bodies, the support of our family and friends. It is also a time to embrace and accept the more challenging moments of the year. With these hardships, we grew and evolved as individuals.
We start saying our goodbyes to this year as it grows smaller in the rearview mirror, rolling quickly towards the new year.
Along with Rosh Hashanah being an end and start point for our yearly race of life, it also a fun holiday. Our high holidays are made of several festivals that are worth waiting for.
Ok, so we caught the seasons shifting, we looked back in appreciation, and now it’s time to start preparing for the holidays. We know it’s mostly about good food and great company. As you schedule your holiday meals with friends and family, we suggest you solve a problem before it rises. Every time our beloved friends and family have us over for the holiday, we want to show our appreciation but don’t know how exactly. What can we give them for their warm hospitality. This year, as you make your holiday schedule, get all gifts in advance. This will allow you the luxury of choosing just the right present for each of your hosts as you have plenty of time to order in advance whatever you like from our versatile Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur category.
We prepared a list of a few popular favorites your friends and family might enjoy, but we also encourage you to browse through this fun Judaica category since it’s filled with holiday inspired surprises.
A Rosh Hashanah table is not complete until it holds a honey pot and oval apple tray made of stainless steel. Shanah Tovah Umetukah, we say to each other as we bite into our honey dipped apples. This item is a timeless classic, combining elegant design and purposefulness, just like the everlasting duo of apple and honey. The honey pot comes complete with its delicately made lid and dedicated spoon. A full set which perfectly matches the tray and create that unique air of luxury. This item is wonderful for yourselves and as a gift for your hosts. Just place it on the table and see how compliments start to pour.
This large shofar holder made of glass, steel, and copper is a very impressive present that conveys appreciation and respect. It is especially fitting if your hosts are leaders in their congregation, perhaps a Chazzan or a Baal Toke’a that will enjoy the possibility of displaying their Shofar on such an awe inspiring pedestal. It is also a wonderful gift for any friend or family member that owns a Shofar and is looking to keep it in plain sight to always remember the important mitzvah. The Shofar, being an ancient trumpet of the royal court, deserves a special holder, and you could be the creative shopper to provide just the right gift.
If more colorful, less holiday related presents are the direction you’re after, you’re sure to appreciate this option - the fun floral health, love, success wall hanging is a very popular option among younger shoppers. This decorative wall hanging can make a lovely holiday present, whether you’re eating together or you just want to make someone happy. The modern lettering, brought out by the colorful metal makes a beautiful wall hanging to be enjoyed all year long.
Last but not least, is our unique, hand picked decorative metal pomegranate, that is guaranteed to put you in the shortlist for Best Shopper ever. This beautiful piece is a show stopper. With a delicately intricate design, it is complex yet simple. Elegant yet present. The Late Blooming metal Pomegranate can look good in any surrounding since its silver tint matches all color schemes and it has the ability to tie the room together.
Even though these are our favorites, we are sure you will find more beautiful items to love in this rich and plentiful category. Our goal when creating the Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur category was to put everything you might need in one place and we often hear from satisfied customers that they didn’t even remember they needed an item until they noticed it in one of our categories.
We hope that this holiday season will be filled with health and joy for you and your loved ones. Shanah Tovah!
