Coat plain wooden dreidels in fine glitter for a display-worthy centerpiece. Hold each dreidel by its handle and brush all but one side with clear-drying white glue.

This cloth bag is designed to hold a dreidel and counters for a game on the go. It is hand-stamped with the top's characters, their transliteration, and the action that each represents.

Within a small felt pouch or coin purse, nestle a silver dreidel and some foil-wrapped sweets. A dreidel such as this, finely crafted of precious material, is a treasure best appreciated by an adult.
