A Few of my Favorite Things!
Harry Potter Wreath, December 4th

Back to Favorite Things Calendar

Several Harry Potter ornaments were around the house and I decided to put them on a wreath. Unfortunately it does not photograph very well, but there are lots of little ornaments on the wreath. Harry Potter trading cards, a gold star garland, and gold glass balls help decorate it. I also used Potter key chains, including several of the Golden Snitch key holders that were sold at Warner Bros. before the stores closed. This wreath is a work in progress, as more small Potter items will be added as I come across them.

If you don't have enough Potter ornaments to make a wreath, buy a pack of trading cards to use as filler. Another filler would be star or moon ornaments, it's hard to see the brass moon ornament by the owl, but it's tucked in behind it. The ornaments are all wired in place, and then a bit of hot glue was used to hold them in position.
