With Hanukkah just around the corner, it's time to prepare for eight days of celebration. The menorah and lighting of the candles are essential traditions to the holiday, but no one wants to display the same generic menorah as everyone else. You may be looking for something different or attention grabbing, so we scoured the internet to find the weirdest menorahs around. In true-crafty fun, we've featured two menorah tutorials to get you involved in the wackiness. Enjoy, and Happy Hanukkah!
