In the spirit of Christmas and of course all things Harry Potter, let’s see what fun things you all have to celebrate our favorite wizarding world!
Here are a set of ornaments we have on our tree, the one with the castle from the Wizarding World in Orlando.
Anyone else have anything fun and Potter-themed at home? (Even if it’s not Christmas related)

@MrSciGuy voldy looks a little green around the gills! Love the spirit though!
I make 3D printable Christmas ornaments. I’d love to make Harry Potter ones, but alas, copyright issues. I’m too poor to get sued!
Not Christmas
Whispers ( the happiness quotes glows in the dark)
@Owlx I can't like those things enough times!
@LeFayeofAlbion my understanding was that if you aren't selling it, then it technically isn't copyright. Otherwise every character ever drawn by a fan would be infringement. (the simple version, there are more nuanced factors)
@LeFayeofAlbion that’s so cool! Yeah I’d think you could definitely make them and just give them away as long as you’re not selling like @Bormacska said.
@Owlx THAT is incredible!! I don’t even know if I can pick a favorite! Ministry of Magic entrance, rubber duck in the bath, glow in the dark happiness quote! Very fun!
@AuroraKadavra and @kiheikid you mean to tell me neither of you Potterheads have anything fun to share?
Oh woah ive just seen this post!! Man....ive got sooo much to share 😂😂
Its 3.15am here i should be asleep but ...imsonia- meh! But in the morn i will collate my collection & share the pic!
Yay- thank you @MrSciGuy for this awesome thread & a chance to see everyones true geekness 😀 love it!!
Pic to follow soon....
@MrSciGuy - we have the books, the dvds, and now this app ... but oddly enough, we are not collectors of harry potter tchotchkes ... (yet ?)
i had thought briefly about posting here the youtube link to SNL’s famous hogwarts skit featuring guest Lindsay Lohan playing Hermione after a growth spurt ... but who needs the grief that might follow
@kiheikid you should watch the Studio C skits on Harry Potter! Especially ‘Oh Snape!’ Where it’s just Voldy and Snape sitting and talking about things.
@kiheikid once you start, it’s tough to stop.
@LeFayeofAlbion that sounds hysterical, I’ll have to check it out!
@LeFayeofAlbion ... 2 snap(e)s up! 😆

Sorry ive not had chance to do pic yet- but I think it's worth waiting for- made me realise how many of the things i use daily are potterverse!! 😀
@LeFayeofAlbion & @kiheikid
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OH Snape🎁🎁🤯
Legos make good decorations.
Also hoping this will bring the Weasley car to my game.
Looking forward to it @AuroraKadavra!!!
@Owlx i love the Weasley flying car!
if i could, i would ...

alas, all thumbs
Does naming our youngest son James count? That was my idea and my husband was cool with it. James even has the problem with his hair sticking up.
Does naming our dogs Draco and Bellatrix count?
No on else likes HP in our house but they know how much I love it so on the 4th of July they do their best wizarding wand work for mom.
Bellatrix and Draco
@Li11ee that is awesome! Nicely done on the naming of everyone. And the sparkler wands are great!
@Li11ee - what kind (breed/mix) of doggies are draco and bellatrix ?
@Li11ee It absolutely counts! This beautiful tabby cat is Professor McGonagall, and her adopted baby sister is Ginny Weasley.
@kiheikid they are maltese and yorkie mix. We like to call them morkies. The sleeping animal in the back is a teenage boy breed. They are so sweet looking when they sleep but then they wake up....
@Magpie31 she is perfect!
@Li11ee - 😂
(i bet the morkies eat a lot less too!)
I just received a miniature talking Dobby figure as a Christmas gift from one of my students. They obviously know me well. I also gave each student a little pompom keyring which I called a Pygmy Puff and named!
@kiheikid absolutely! We have 3 boys. Usually the food disappears the same day I go grocery shopping.
@Li11ee That is awesome, plus such adorable morkies.
Your teenage boy breed comment makes me laugh each time I read it. Lol 😂😂😂
@Li11ee - no wonder your doggies are such wee ones; otherwise your grocery bill would be HUUUU-mongous. a rellie had a great dane that was responsible for huge intake of meat and, um, corresponding output.
Just finished up an evening of potion work in the form of “cranberry elixir” sauce. It will boost your spell energy and increase your ability to detect small fingers poking into jam jars and be able to defeat their overwhelming theatrics. 😅
I don’t really collect things. I collect experiences, books, yarn, movies, plants, pictures, and special ingredients for more “potion making” 😂 but my kids have some HP legos if that counts? I’ll have to sneak in and get pics in the morning.
@LadyRedIII all good stuff to collect! And that cranberry elixir looks great!
@MrSciGuy why thank you! 😊 we are taking some of it along with plates of cookies over to the fire station and another batch to the local Post Office in the morning. I hope they enjoy it as much my littles do!
