The gelt+glow Story
GELT + GLOW is a pioneering holiday and gifting company that reimagines Jewish celebrations, blending timeless traditions with modern elegance and creativity. Jewish designers have long shaped fashion, architecture, and art with beauty and innovation—now, it’s time for Jewish holiday tables and gifts to reflect that same chutzpah and style.
For years, I searched for beautiful, festive products for Hanukkah and found the options uninspired. Wrapping paper and advent- style calendars overflowed for Christmas, but there were no thoughtfully designed counterparts for Jewish holidays.
The idea for GELT + GLOW began with my daughter. One year, I repurposed a liquor carton to create an eight-compartment Hanukkah box filled with small surprises, covering it with wrapping paper and perforations for each night. Her joy sparked a tradition, and year after year, she eagerly awaited her special box.
Inspired by her excitement, I began designing a more refined version. With the support of talented designers and friends, we brought the concept to life. This year, we’re proud to present our first collection: thoughtfully crafted Hanukkah wrapping paper and our signature 8-night Hanukkah box—modern designs infused with deep cultural pride.
We hope our creations bring beauty and unforgettable memories to your family, just as they have to mine.
Happy Holidays,
