Harry Potter Studios London Tour The Making of Harry Potter

Harry Potter Studios London

Madeline went through a phase where everything in her life revolved around Harry Potter. There weren't any shortages of Harry Potter sites and shops to visit when we lived in Scotland and we did our best to visit as many as possible. For her last birthday in Edinburgh, we got her tickets to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in London. The two of us took the train down to London for the weekend to see the show, but what she didn't know is that I had also gotten the two of us tickets to go on ... Read More

Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Mirror DIY

Madeline is the most Harry Potter crazy of all my kids and she's going full on with a Harry Potter themed bedroom. She has the Sorting Hat Weaving I made a few years back, a Hogwarts painting I did at a painting studio in Illinois, her Hufflepuff banner, and all sorts of bits and pieces. She's turning the nook with her desk into her Harry Potter space and I'm way more than happy to help her along. I made this crazy easy Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Mirror DIY as a fun addition to her ... Read More

Harry Potter Sorting Hat House Colors Hair Clip

Harry Potter Sorting Hat House Colors Hair Clip

I can't go too long without making some sort of Harry Potter craft, so of course I joined in with Marissa's yearly Harry Potter extravaganza. It's so fun to have friends who share the Harry Potter love and have super creative ideas. My girls recently discovered that they can be sorted by Alexa (Madeline had already been sorted into Hufflepuff on Pottermore) and they're all in different houses. They had been asking me for something to show off each of their house colors, so I made them each a ... Read More

How to Ride the Hogwarts Express

I used to daydream about the girls being introduced to Harry Potter and instantly falling in love the way I did. As they started growing up, I got antsy that it was never going to happen. Last year, though, Madeline finally started the books and hasn't looked back. I've lost count of how many times she's read all of the books--we had to make a rule that she has to read something new in between rounds of Harry Potter. As she's gotten more and more into this magical world, she's become aware of ... Read More

Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern

Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern

We've had Harry Potter on the brain more than ever before now that we live in Edinburgh. We're surrounded by Harry Potter gift shops and places that inspired the books. It's a lot of fun to walk through town and see the inspirations behind Hogwarts and Diagon Alley. Every time there's a dress up day at school, we're overrun by kids in wizard cloaks. I had a lot of fun creating this Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern, even if it did take me a Hogwarts year to stitch it up. **This ... Read More

Harry Potter Sorting Hat Weaving

Harry Potter Sorting Hat Weaving

My love for Harry Potter is never ending. I watch the movies regularly while I'm working. I listen to them on audiobook at night. I obsess. If we had had a boy...well, I think I've told this story before. I'm still waiting for the girls to fully latch onto the series, but we're getting closer. In the meantime, I keep myself busy by making plenty of Harry Potter crafts so of course I joined in with Rae Gun Ramblings once again for her Happy Harry Potter series! This year, I made a Harry Potter ... Read More

about me

I’ve wanted to be an archaeologist, in theatre, a judge, and to run a museum. While I try to decide what I want to be when I grow up, I spend my time crafting and exploring the world. Read More…
