Harry Potter Ornaments 2 / 2

I printed out some Chocolate Frog and Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans packaging as well as Harry’s Hogwarts letter and used origami instructions for the howler and chocolate frog. Then I used them to decorate a secret santa present.

Harry Potter Ornaments 1 / 2

I decided to make Weasley Sweater Ornaments for me and my best friend, so I drew up some sweaters. This ist the alphabet I mostly used.

I also filled some 1 ml bottles with glittery glue in the house colors and hid them in our tree.

October 2017

A friend of mine and I went to a reopening of the public library where they offered lots of bookish DIYs.  We decides to make “team” buttons for our Illuminae reading group and both painted a signpost to our favourite literary worlds (which we still need to fill in).

We went to Charlotte and Charleston afterwards, to attend the graduation ceremony of Charlotte’s Queens University and to hang out at the beach with family. (I’ve also photographed too much food)
