Harry Potter Birthday Party

I had so much fun preparing for this party.
I've been picking things up here and there all year long.
All the pretty glass bottles I found at Hobby Lobby on clearance for $1.60 and $2.60.
I also found the green trunk and bird cage at Hobby Lobby.
The owl I found on Amazon.com and the spider at Bennion Crafts.


The banner, snitch, glasses and wand I made.


Had some fun looking online for some good potions to use for the party.
We used a lot of vinegar, baking soda, food coloring and glitter.
We made Liquid Luck that everyone was able to taste.
We tried to make Magic Mud (silly putty) but failed.
We must have forgotten to stir counterclockwise or something.


Candy is always a hit and looks pretty.


Cupcakes with chocolate frogs.
Emily made all the chocolate frogs herself.



Guest arrived through Platform 9 3/4.


Then they were sorted into a house by the Sorting Hat.


I was put into Slytherin.


Then everyone picked a wand at Ollivander's.


Potions Class for young and old.


Liquid Luck.


Magic Mud.


Explosive Fun.


Using up all the leftovers provided some fun.


We filled up on sweets from Honeydukes.


Then we had Seeker tryouts.
We hid snitches.
One person from each House found the snitch and was the teams seeker.
The Birthday girl was showered with great gifts.


I can't believe she is 12.


Everyone had a great time
