Wand Tutorial

I found this image through Pinterest and loved it. It's a tutorial to make easy but authentic-looking wands. Again, I did not make this tutorial. 

I used 12 inch dowels instead of chopsticks. They're longer and thicker. I also used a pencil sharpener to shape the tips for some. Also, if you don't have large beads, don't hesitate to roll aluminum foil into a ball and glue that to the end of the wand instead.

Here's the link:

Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans Box

Here is the template for the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans Box. I posted this, so you may have all the candy boxes in one place. Someone else made this, not me. Print on card stock. You'll need a craft knife to cut the windows. 

P.S. If you're looking for the beans, I wouldn't order them from Jelly Belly if I were you. They're very expensive. I used regular jelly beans instead of the "every flavor" variety. It not only spares the taste buds of unpleasant flavors, but costs less. Try World Market if there's one in your town. 

Chocolate Frog Cards

Here are the Chocolate Frog Cards! They took a long time to make, but they were worth it. I took the images from the Chocolate Frog Cards you earn on the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets computer game. Somebody uploaded those, and someone else uploaded the Chocolate Frog Card templates. Here you go! There will eventually be 100. 

Print on card stock, and (again), if the sizing doesn't fit the Chocolate Frog Boxes, try opening them with Paintbrush or resizing them. 

Chocolate Frog Box Template

Unsatisfied with the Chocolate Frog Box Templates I found online, I decided to make my own! Let it be known, I did not create the designs, but I cut and pasted from one that was a little less functional. It's more accurate to the films than the purple one you may find. It may be a little bulky, but that guarantees that the frog will fit. Here it is!

Print on card stock. If the size isn't satisfactory, try opening the file with Paintbrush, the Mac paint program. You can find the link to install Paintbrush here (http://paintbrush-mac.en.softonic.com/mac). If that doesn't work, or you don't have a Mac, try resizing the image yourself. The flat image should be almost exactly 10 inches in length (measuring from the top of the top box to the bottom of the bottom box).

Have fun! I made this, because I'm hoping I'll get the opportunity to throw a Harry Potter party for my future children! I'll upload templates for the Chocolate Frog cards too! If you have any questions or need further instructions, leave me a comment.
