A couple of weeks ago, I asked on Facebook what you would like to win for a Rosh Hashana Giveaway. When a number of you suggested Rosh Hashana Judaica, I knew just the place to go: The Jewish Gift Place.
This wonderful online store hosts an expansive, eclectic and truly stunning line of Jewish gifts — from hand-made holiday and Shabbat gifts to tzedakah boxes and wine stoppers.
They also have an amazing array of jewelry, including this evil eye necklace designed by Israeli artist Michal Golan ($80). Apparently it’s been selling like hot cakes since Melissa Gorga wore it on Real Housewives of New Jersey (I kid you not).
While evil eye jewelry is not my personal style, this – on the other hand – had me at hello. I adore the simple, modern lines in this apple and honey plate designed by Shraga Landesman. ($100)
Truly there is something for everyone at The Jewish Gift Place – even those of us “on a budget”, since KOAB readers can enjoy $10 off their Rosh Hashana gifts with the promo code RH11.
And of course, two lucky KOAB readers will do even better when they win a $50 gift card to The Jewish Gift Place.
Figuring this will be a pretty popular giveaway, I am giving you SEVEN ways to enter. The first one is MANDATORY: Just leave a comment on this post telling me what your favorite item of Judaica is in your home.
The other six entries are optional. You can do one, some, all or none.

I love my Shabbos candlesticks. I was working in a Jewish museum when i got engaged, and picked out a glass-and-silver pair from the designer gift shop. I bucked the “tradition” of receiving a gift pair from my mother-in-law, and I’m glad I did.
I don’t really have a favorite thing. I like all of our judaica, but I especially love anything made by my kids, and I have a weakness for challah covers and mezuzot.
Super simple but always catches my eye: our gorgeous red ceramic pomegranate bought in Israel. Reminds me of Israel, of fruitfulness, and of our connection to this earth.

We just bought a handmade honey pot from a pottery store and I can not wait to use it. Other than my husband’s photography of Israel, that’s probably my favorite.
My favorite is the mezuzah on my daughter’s room. Simple white glass mezuzah with a flower with primary color petals. It looks so nice and sweet. And I love that she loves it too!
I love the candlesticks my mother-in-law bought me in Israel a couple months after I got married
I think my favorite piece right now is our havdalah set – it was a wedding present – not at all what I would have chosen but after a zillion uses, well you get the idea. I also love all the Rosh HaShanah plates and Pesach crafts that my girls have made that we use every year. SO fun to take out and remember all the creations.
A friend of mine is a visual artist and she created a Birkat Habayit for me when I moved into my apartment. I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was that it was one of the first pieces of art I put up.

My candlesticks are my favorites.
My son’s hand made mezzuzah is my favorite item. He has his own prayer in it, not conventional, but I love it!
It’s a toss up between the ketubah we had made for us and the chuppah to which our friends contribute decorated squares and my dear friend made into a quilt which serves as a wall hanging. But I think I’ll go for the chuppah as it represents the love of all of our friends and family who were present or invited to our wedding.
My challah board. Its really original.
The handmade copper chamsa I bought in Israel 🙂
I like ur evil eye necklace it looks very beautifull
My favorite item is my husbands prayer book that he received on his Bar Mitzvah. It is very frayed around the edges.

My favorite is our ketubah!
Do cookbooks count? If so, my favorite is probably our World of Jewish cooking by Gil Marks (if only I could find it…). If not, as a wedding gift, one of our friends gave us a framed bruchim habaim, with the frame made up of ancient Israeli pot shards that she had excavated herself. It was the first thing (except the muzzuah) that we put up in our apartment.
Our challah covers… we have a few of them, and we select them each week based on mood and festivities.
We have a beautiful hand painted havdalah set from Tzfat that we got for our wedding.. Love it!

I have a hard time picking any one item, but I think it would have to be the Shabbat candlesticks that my great-grandmother brought with her to the US when she was pregnant with my grandfather.
Our kiddush cup from HaZorfim!
I love our havdalah set. My son picked it out for his Bar Mitzvah celebration. I am looking forward to using it for our second son’s too. We are starting to plan that now.
