Silver-Plated Oil Menorah
Celebrate all eight nights with an authentic silver-plated oil menorah. This holiday celebrates the miracle of a single day’s worth of oil lasting for a full eight in the ancient Holy Temple, which is why most traditional revelers prefer to use olive oil instead of wax. You can technically use either, but this menorah is also one of the most dazzling Hanukkah decorations to display in a prominent window. Either way, if you do invest in a menorah, you’ll want to know how to clean a metal menorah.

Hanukkah Gelt
Each piece of Hanukkah gelt is a delicious individually wrapped treat, but the best Hanukkah hosts also use them as tabletop decor. Spread them across table runners for added flair and leave them in trinket bowls on kitchen island carts. If you really want to impress house guests, pop gelt on their pillows in place of fancy hotel-style chocolates.
