My brother's youngest daughter just had her Bat Mitzvah. DH and I got to light a candle together for the first time as a married couple. She had a very bright pink and green theme. I know thse are meant for a child but check out these centerpieces. The last was the base of my table's centerpiece with breakaway flowers in small square vases:
ETA:
I forgot to mention that this child did the most incredible job reading from the Torah. I cried watching her chant. My brother looked at her with such pride - so beautiful. It was at that moment when I could really see my father in him. What a truly blessed event. She is quite the lady now!
Congrats to you and ur niece! The centerpieces are very nice, I have never seen anything like that.

Oh I hear you. Between my maiden name and my married name I just SHOUT ethnicity. I keep telling DH our kids will either be KBG, makers of fine vodka or hockey players. LOL we should post the Bar Mitzvah photos of our DH's - pure hilarity. I know I have one of ME somewhere complete with the Farrah Fawcett wings and black eyeliner on the INSIDE of my eyes. 1983 was harsh.

Mine was in 1987..I had a big bow on the back of my head!
Recently went to FH's cousin's Bar Mitzvah and I was BLOWN away with how well he did. He practically lead the service..I could never have done that!
