Arnold is done!! but my father (the only one who has seen him so far) thinks hes eye is too tiny. But I thought if he had bigger eyes he would feel more human, he is a magicall creature, right?
or shall I change them?

^ Hmm, theyre both good but I think I like the second the best. I can imagine it sewn on the students bags at Hogwarts! You should sell these, I would buy them!

I LOVE those patches! I prefer the first one, but they're both beautiful! How are you going to make them?
Aarnold looks amazing, too! I like the smaller size.

The butterbeer is awesome, too!!! I'm throwing a HP party and I'm trying to make all kinds of HP food and decorations so that's some nice inspiration!

I made the radishes out of sculpy/fimo clay and then painted it and put the earring attachment on. Then, I cut leaves out of fabric and glued them on. I'm thinking of making more and then selling them on ebay!!!
I also made a butterbeer cork necklace and it actually looked just like Luna's in the movie which I didn't expect it to!

 

[Lacroix]

^ Yes!! Please make more, I will definetley buy a pair, just let me know when you do


Both of your parties sound so great and magical, have a great time!

bad pic of my cloak (and a part of my dressinggown )

I making a new necktie. The one in the pic is an orginal from Annies costumes/WB, but it seems so purple and do not go so well with the red in the cloak (or my idea of the scarlet at all)

I wish I had the motivation to make a costume, but I think I'll just be donning normal clothes on eve of the last book.


...and I really like the Pygmy Puff, Perfect10!

I had the Harry Potter Party last night! It was a blast! I spent the entire day yesterday and the day before that transforming the living room into Gryffindor Common Room and making all kinds of food!

I dressed up as Luna, my sister dressed up as Hermione, and my friends came as Rita Skeeter, Stan Shunpike, another Hermione, and Ginny (with Arnold, of course!).

Everyone brought food, I made pumpkin juice, cockroach clusters, hagrid's rock cakes, cauldron cakes, and acid pops.
My friends brought treacle tart, cauldron cakes, 2 kinds of cockroach clusters, every flavored beans, and lemon drops!

We played HP games and listened to Harry and the Potters and the HP soundtrack!


We lit candles all over the place, printed out pictures of old portraits and put them in frames all over the room.
I hung a snitch I made, stars, and also Peeves from the ceiling.
We also had a gryffindor jersey hanging up, and curtains covering all the enterances into the room. And I printed out a picture of Sirius' head and put it in the fireplace!
I also put up all my owl things i've collected, and we put out a ton of our old Halloween decorations. And of course you had to say the password (Roonil Wazlib) to get into the room!

My sister made flyers and then put them on a bulletin board for the common room notice board. & We also took an old bird cage, put some white feathers in it and a fake letter to Harry!
