Hanukkah Clip-Art How-To

1. Download clip art (http://images.marthastewart.com/images/content/web/pdfs/2009Q4/msl_1209_hanukkah_envelope2.pdf), and print onto matte heavyweight paper; cut out.

2. Score along dotted lines with a bone folder. For straight lines, use a ruler for guidance.

3. Fold box, first along straight lines, then on one end to close. Fill box with gelt. Close open end.

4. Using craft punch, punch out a star from silver paper.

5. Wrap ribbon around box, and secure with a star using double-sided tape.

True. Thanks for the tip. Even if you are not Jewish, you can customize it to your own taste!
