Accio, crafting supplies--it's time for some wonderful wizardly fun!
My Take on the Book
Jamie Harrington puts her creative mind into action with a book of crafts for those who enjoy the Harry Potter books/movies. I found her designs and imagination astounding. She uses common items and changes them into Harry Potter crafts. There are 30 different crafts at various levels of difficulty.
The book is well written with not only the step by step directions but detailed photographs of the process. There are also photographs of the finished project. The author included many easy to produce objects such as the sorcerer's stone out of aquarium rocks and the pencil wand using a hot glue gun, acrylic paint and mod podge. Some projects will need adult supervision. The dementor soap requires the crafter to melt a soap base, use soap molds, and have a spray bottle that contains isopropyl alcohol.
Jamie Harrington has written a book that will definitely interest Harry Potter enthusiasts. There are hours of fun in this book.
