FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What should you bring to someone's house for Shabbos?
Bring or send the gift before candle lighting. A bottle of wine with a hechsher your hosts use, flowers delivered already arranged on Friday, or a piece for their Shabbos table all work well. Judaica lasts long after the meal.
What is a good gift for a Shabbos hostess?
Something for her table she will use every week: a candle lighting card or tray, a match holder, a tzedakah box or a challah board. Feldart Shabbos gifts start at $12.50.
Can you give a gift on Shabbos?
Gifts are usually given before Shabbos. Halacha limits transferring ownership on Shabbos except for things needed for Shabbos itself, so the simplest approach is to deliver the gift on Friday. Ask your rav with specific questions.
What is in a Shabbos gift set?
A set groups coordinated pieces so the gift is ready to give. Feldart's Leatherite Shabbos Pack is $89 and the Multi Shabbos & Yom Tov Set is $79.
What is a good Shabbos gift for a kallah?
Her own candle lighting set. The Leatherite Hadlakos Neiros Tray ($96) or a Hadlakos Neiros Gift Box Set ($134) is a gift she will use every Friday.
