We went to see the new Harry Potter movie on Sunday afternoon. Got a big vat of disgusting popcorn and settled in.
I was riveted the entire time. I had NO IDEA how much time had passed. It was over in the blink of an eye.
Can I tell you how much I LOVE Harry Potter? It's great storytelling, in the very best way. Incredible characters (Oh Snape). I was disappointed to not see some of my favorite villians - Lucius Malfoy, and Voldemort himself. They were lurking in the background somewhere. And as much as I loved Harry, Hermione and Ron when they were younger, they're still equally mesmerizing as they get older.
If you're a fan too, you might just LOVE some of these awesome handmade Harry Potter-type items that I found on etsy. Here are some of my favs:
Everybody needs a Defence against the Dark Arts Notebook, from
celesetfrittata.
And in case you like villians as much as I do, here's a particularly charming one.

In case you'd like to crochet your own wizards, here's an amazing pattern.

So.....how long do I have to wait for the next Harry Potter movie to be released????
I wish Snape would come along and teach me some Defense against the Dark Arts....
