Funny story:
I have a BEAUTIFUL tallit. My mom made it. The atarah is my Hebrew name in bobbin lace over a bobbin lace background. There’s also little bobbin lace decorations in the corners (see below for a close up of the gimmel and nun, which is the only convenient picture I’ve got of it). She says it took a thousand hours.
So with this incredibly labor intensive tallit, I am under strict care instructions which leads me to my funny thing:
When I put it on, if I’m wearing lipstick I don’t kiss it. I say the bracha and air kiss it. I always say it’s cause “mom scares me more than HaShem.”
