If you have a young Potter fan around your house, or if you’re planning a Harry Potter themed party, here’s a crafty idea from Your Life Uncommon that will blow you away. Can you guess how these wands are made? It’s ingenious! [how to make Harry Potter wands]

I’m a certified HP nut and have seen the movie and will probably see it again so maybe I can make one of these to take! Love them!

These are cool. My daughter has cut some tree branches, wrapped them with yarn and varnished them for a similar effect.

You’ve got to go ahead and make time to see the movie, it’s fantastic!

These are fantastic! What a cool moviegoer or Halloween prop. :) When I saw the picture, I thought, “Are those candles?” Haha!

Chelsea, I thought they were tapered candles too. I’m thinking that a bought candle would work, don’t you? Takes the fun of making it yourself but hey, I’m lazy, lol.
