Party Boutiques Guide
Sukkot is the decorating holiday of the Jewish year. The sukkah goes up, the schach goes over the top, and then the inside gets dressed: fruit hung from the beams, lights strung through the branches, and a table set for seven days of meals with whoever walks in. It is the one holiday where the decor is not background, it is the point. Every item in this collection has been counted and is on the shelf at 7724 Yonge St, so you can build the whole thing in one trip.
The hanging layer is what makes a sukkah feel finished. Foil balloons in green apple, orange, lemon and sunflower shapes read as fruit from across the room, they weigh almost nothing on a branch, and unlike real produce they will not spoil or drip over a seven day holiday. Opalescent and silver paper lanterns add a soft round shape overhead, burlap and foil leaves fill the gaps in the greenery, and mini wooden clothespins are the quiet workhorse of the whole job, holding fruit, artwork and garland to the schach without knots or tape.
For the table itself the palette is harvest: gold paper plates, green and damask napkins, citrus and palm leaf prints, silver chargers under the main course, and bamboo and wooden serving pieces that suit eating outdoors. Apple shaped containers and the honeycomb ice tray carry over from Rosh Hashanah and still belong on a Tishrei table. Because the sukkah is an outdoor room, disposable is the practical choice for most of the week, with the chargers and gold cutlery there for the nights that call for something more.
Real produce hung from the schach spoils, drips and draws insects well before the seven days are up. Foil balloons in apple, lemon, orange and sunflower shapes read the same from across the sukkah and last the whole holiday.
Mini wooden clothespins clip decorations straight onto the schach and come off again without knots, tape residue or damage to the branches. They are the cheapest thing in this collection and the one most worth buying.
The sukkah is an outdoor room in October. Anchor anything lightweight, keep paper decorations away from the open edges, and expect to re-hang part of the canopy at least once during the week.
Pick a single green for the greenery and napkins and a single metallic for the plates and accents. Mixing silver and gold across the same table is what makes a sukkah read cluttered rather than styled.
Sukkot begins on 15 Tishrei and runs for seven days, five days after Yom Kippur, which places it in late September or October depending on the year. Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah follow immediately after. The sukkah traditionally goes up in the few days between Yom Kippur and Sukkot, so the week before Yom Kippur is when the selection is fullest.
Seasonal fruit is the tradition, especially the seven species associated with the land of Israel: wheat, barley, grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives and dates. Apples, citrus and gourds are common additions. These hang from the schach alongside children's artwork, paper decorations and strings of lights. Most families now use foil or artificial fruit rather than the real thing, because real produce spoils and draws insects over a seven day holiday.
