I’ve done a fair number of themed miniature gardens over the last 17 years of my full-time study of this wonderful new hobby of gardening in miniature for this blog and for the Prop Shop book, but the Hanukkah miniature garden still remains a bit elusive to me. While I completely respect the lack of decorations for this very special occasion because it’s a very nice change from almost any other occasion (- no pressure!) I tend to fall back on the traditional blue and silver decorations and end up using them as we do Christmas decorations!
The only reason I can think of for why I do it this way, rather than use the fall-back excuse that I grew up with Christmas, is because all my miniature gardens have a tree in them – so I decorate it! Lol!
Wishing you a warm peaceful Hanukkah everyone!
