My Muggles in my Girl Scout troop are going to love this: I’m anxiously awaiting the Amazon delivery of The Unofficial Guide to Crafting the World of Harry Potter: 30 Magical Crafts for Witches and Wizards-from Pencil Wands to House Colors Tie-Dye Shirts.

When my friend told me about this book, I admittedly dismissed it. After all, I had seen scores of wand crafts and Griffindor shirts that you can make on Pinterest.

But I finally got online and checked out the preview and the table of contents, and I am so excited about this craft book! There are Harry Potter themed crafts for school, your bedroom or locker, beauty, and for wearing.

I love some of the names for these Harry Potter craft projects:

Butterbeer lip balm and Pigmy Puff Bath Fizzies (hmm…spa badge?)

Butterbeer lip balm and Pigmy Puff Bath Fizzies (hmm…spa badge?) Spellbook journal

Monsters Book of Monsters book cover (back to school craft?)

Dementor soap (Halloween-themed spa night?)

House colors sugar scrub

Free Dobby Laundry Hamper

Wall Mirror of Erised

Lumos/Nox light switch cover (Earth Day?)

You could even wrap these HP projects with a cooking day, using recipes from Magical Summer Sweets: Harry Potter Inspired Recipes or Magical Menu: Harry Potter Cooking for Christmas Meals. Enjoy!
