We're sharing a fun colorful banner for your next Hanukkah celebration. This Star of David Banner is great for those looking for Hanukkah decoration ideas.
While my immediate family does not celebrate Hanukkah, I have a number of friends that do. And so I wanted to share a printable banner to for them to add some fun color to their Hanukkah celebration.
We hope to make Hanukkah celebrations that much HAPPIER with our other post including: Happy Hanukkah Coloring Pages and 20 Hanukkah Recipes.
We highlighted this Hanukkah printable along with some other fun kids craft in our December Crafts for Kids along with our 101+ Easy Craft Ideas for kids.
Traditional Colors for Hanukkah Celebrations
Traditionally, the colors for Hanukkah are blue and white. I have read that this originated with the Israeli flag. There are symbolic meanings behind each color in the Jewish culture. The white symbolizes innocence and purity and the blue symbolizes justice.
I truly mean no disrespect for going outside the traditional Hanukkah celebration of blue and white or blue and silver, but I always love to chance to showcase something in a whole new colorful light (festival of lights). 🙂

Hanukkah Decoration Ideas
What does the Star of David represent?
A fun little fact about me is that throughout college, I had a boyfriend who was Jewish. I would attend many Jewish celebrations with him, including Hanukkah. Wanting to know more about the celebrations and traditions, to be respectful, I did my fair share of historical research.
What I learned about the Star of David was that early on, the two overlapping triangles - the hexagram was called "The Shield of David" was believed to ward off evil spirits. It wasn't until the 1600s that the first Jewish flag was raised over a synagogue that adored the Star of David symbol. There were many iterations from there.
