Hello everybody, so in this video, I'm gonna share with you some DIY Harry Potter school supplies
I did this video two years ago actually and it's my most popular one. So why not make a sequel am I right?
So the first DIY that I want to share with you is a tape holder that looks like Harry's glasses
So you're gonna take a thick wire and leave about ten centimeters at the end for
the ear part of the glasses.. and then you're gonna take a tape that you want to put on the tape holder and
Twist the wire around it
Yeah, I don't really know how to explain this.. I hope the video speaks for itself but
Basically, you just want to mold the wire into the shape of Harry's glasses and make sure that the diameter of the CIRCRLES
Circles is about the same as of the tape
To be completely honest with you, this DIY is not my favorite just because it was kind of hard to
Bend and twist the wire...but I came up with this idea when I was trying to fall asleep
And I thought it'd be kind of cute and it did turn out kind of cute so
Yeah
My initial plan was to put the tape inside of the glasses like so
But then I realized that the tape gets smaller when you use it because I'm so stupid
so after I painted the glasses with white acrylic paint
I also decided to make these two loops out of wire and
I stuck them inside of the glasses so you can put the tape on top of the glasses instead of inside them and
You can actually use it when the tape gets smaller. So
That's that for the DIY
The second school supply is a pencil case in the shape of a sock.. like Dobby's sock
So I started off by taking a thicker blue fabric. I don't know the names of fabricks, but it's like um
Like a thick blue fabric.. and I traced a sock on it
that is the size of the supplies that I would want to put inside of the pencil case and
I cut it out and traced it on the fabric and made another copy
Then I put the socks on top of each other and I sewed them together
You can also glue them but since I wasn't gonna turn the sock inside out because the shape would be deformed
I thought that sewing it would make it look like the seams are visible on purpose and it would give it a more rustic look
then I took a zipper which this one I'm actually recycling from a different pencil case and
I made a cut in the middle of the sock where the zipper would go and
afterwards, I glued the zipper inside of the pencil case with some hot glue gun and
Finally, I just sewed any remaining gaps to make sure nothing would fall out after pentakus
As for the finishing touch
I wrote "Dobby is free" on the pencil case with some white acrylic paint... as you can see
I used a pencil instead of a brush because this way I could be much more precise and I could really
stamp the paint on the fabric and
Yeee that's it for this DIY
The third craft is a pencil that looks like a broomstick
So I found this unusable cable in my basement and I cut it into smaller pieces
now I know that not everyone is gonna have an old cable but
Instead you could also use some yarn raffia or even felt fabric
moving on I stuck the pieces of cable at the end of the pencil with some hot glue and
Then proceeded to paint them with brown acrylic paint
I used a nude pencil, but if you're not using a brown or nude pencil
Make sure to paint that as well... and finally I wrapped some yarn around the end of the cables
AKA the brush, to make it look more authentic
And that's it. This DIY is very easy and quick, but I think it looks very cute
Now this DIY is probably my favorite it's a notebook that has "I must not tell lies" carved in it
For this you will need a notebook that has a soft cover such as faux leathe.. and I think I got mine from Tiger
I think
Anyways, I painted the notebook with white acrylic paint
You can also paint it with a nude color to represent skin, but I just used white
then I wrote "I must not tell lies" on the notebook using the same font as in the film and
Then I took some nail scissors and carved the letters out
This was actually quite hard and took me around 40 minutes to do
But I discovered that it's easier to kind of cut the letters out instead of carving them
but please be careful when doing this and make sure not to cut yourself and
If you don't want to bother with carving, you can just write it on the notebook
But if it's carved, it gives the notebook quite a nice effect, in my opinion
Moving on, I used some red and black sharpies to create depth in the letters and
finally, I used some red watercolor paint and smeared it around the letters to make it look like the area is
Irritated... and the notebook is finito
So the next DIY is a sorting hat magnet which must be my second favorite craft from this video
Firstly, I took a flat circular
magnet and cut out a circle (that is a little bit bigger than the magnet) out of some cardstock paper
And glued that on top of the magnet.. then I rolled a piece of the cardstock into a cone and glued that on
the magnet as well
And I also made sure to kind of crush the paper into the shape of the sorting hat
then I used my best friend... the hot glue gun and
covered the cardstock paper with the glue to create the texture of the hat and
afterwards I painted the hat with brown acrylic paint and used a black sharpie to create the face and
That's about it. Since this is the Sorting Hat. Let me know in the comments which house your in..
I'm in Ravenclaw
For this DIY, I was actually inspired by Demi Siriusly, I will leave her channel in the description box
But basically she made some bookmarks using the same technique as I am using here
So I cut out a square of cardstock 9 by 9 centimeters and I divided
divided it into 4 smaller squares like so... and cut out one of the squares
Then I divided the two adjacent squares into two triangles and cut out one of the triangles
I don't know if this is making any sense
But then I folded the two triangles inwards on top of the square and glued them together
creating a pocket
Now when I think of Dobby
I think of ears
So I thought it'd be funny if you could only see the ears when the bookmark was inside a book or a notebook
So I sketched Dobby's ears on top of CARDSTOCK??. Oh my god
I cannot speak.. a cardstock paper.. and cut them out even with the square
then I glued the initial square on top of it, making sure that the pocket was upside down like so
Now you could paint it, but I wanted it to be a little bit more sturdy
so I covered the whole thing with some greyish fabric and
Finally I painted on some cute eyes with white acrylic paint and a black sharpie
I was done
So this envelope book cover is
Appropriate for a diary, a planner or anything you would want to protect a little bit more
So I used a white fabric.. again, I don't know the name of this fabric, but I cut out a rectangle
that is about three times the width of the notebook and
Then I glued the right end of the fabric into a triangle like so and I wrapped the rest of the fabric around the notebook
attaching it with some hot glue
The rest of this is basically the same as my DIY letter pencil case that I did two years ago
So I drew the Hogwarts logo on top of the envelope with some sharpie
Also, I made the wax seal stamp using a button and a red acrylic paint and glued that on top of the envelope and finally
I glued a piece of string to the fabric which you can then wrap around the button and keep the notebook closed and
That is it
This craft is, in my opinion, the most aesthetically pleasing one
So I started off by painting my notebook with white acrylic paint. What a surprise!! Once the paint was dry
I covered the notebook with some paper
So only this little section would be showing.. and I spritzed the section with yellow and orange watercolor paint
Making sure that I created a gradient
where most of the color was accumulated at the start AKA where the two papers covered each other and
afterwards, I drew Dumbledore's wand under the light with a sharpie as well as writing Lumos and
That's the DIY done!
So the next school supply that I want to show you is a Deathly Hallows triangle
so first of all
I painted the triangle with white acrylic paint just to have a canvas and then I used some tape and a circle of paper
to create a stencil for the Deathly Hallows symbol
I only made it for the line and the circle because the triangle itself is supposed to represent the triangle in the symbol
Ya know
I then took some blue watercolor paint.. you can use any color but I just used blue... and I painted over the stencil
Finally once I removed the stencil
I outlined the blue parts with a black sharpie and the Deathly Hallows triangle was finished
The last DIY that I have prepared for you is definitely the easiest one
You just need some scissors that have circular loops for your fingers and you're just gonna paint them with white acrylic paint
again to create a canvas for a black sharpie and
then simply draw Harry's glasses where the loops are.. and also draw his scar
That's literally all you have to do
So that's it for this video I really hope you enjoyed it
