Not all floral arrangments have to be frou-frou. This beer mug arrangement is perfect for the manly-man in your life, but it’s also a fun centerpiece for a summer barbecue or a tailgate party. And you won’t believe how easy it is to put together.

What you’ll need:

Glass beer mug
Gold glass gems
White hydrangea stem

1. Start with a glass beer mug. I bought this one for $1.25 at Dollar Tree.

2. Fill the glass with gold-colored glass gems and water. The glass gems were $5 at Joann crafts store with a 50% off coupon.

3. For the foamy head, we’ll use a white hydrangea stem. You can also use carnations or another white, fluffy flower. Place the hydrangea stem into the middle of the glass beads. If you have trouble inserting it, remove a few beads until the stem slides through.

AJU’s Ziegler School: Growth and Transformation

The challenge is how we can reinvent rabbinical training so that it’s not clinging to models that no longer work, is sustainable, and addresses the needs of today and tomorrow’s Jewish community.

Celebrate National Hamburger Month

While there may be limitations on how to enjoy burgers due to the laws of kashrut, it just means Jews have to get a little more creative.
