  1. Step 1 Costruisci una bacchetta magica con delle bacchette cinesi.
    Harry had to go to Diagon Alley to find his wand, but you can make one at home.For this project, you will need 15-inch-long bamboo chopsticks, brown acrylic paint, a brush, a hot glue gun, and some high-gloss spray paint.[1]
    • Carefully use the hot glue gun to pour drops onto the bottom of the wand to create the handle.Use about 1-2 strands of glue if you want to make the handle extra thick.
    • The handle should feel thicker than the rest of the wand, but you're free to decorate it however you like.
    • Once the glue has dried, paint the wand.
    • Once the paint is dry, apply a coat of lacquer to all sides of the wand.
  2. Step 2 Realizza un Boccino d'oro con una pallina da ping-pong.
    To have a Golden Snitch at home, you don't need to catch one on the quidditch pitch.For this project you will need a ping-pong ball, a thin piece of construction paper, a marker, a hot glue gun, scissors, and gold spray paint.
    • Use the marker to draw two wings on the cardboard.The latter must be large enough to be glued to the ping-pong ball.
    • Use scissors to cut out the wings.
    • Carefully pour the hot glue onto the ping-pong ball, drawing the decoration of your choice.
    • While the glue is still hot, attach the wings to both sides of the ball.
    • Apply two coats of spray paint to the wings and ball.
    • Glue a string over the Snitch and hang it on your Christmas tree.
  3. Step 3 Crea la tua Giratempo.
    Hermione used her Time Turner to take more lessons and today you too can make your own version at home.For this project you will need some gold spray paint, yarn, 3 different sized key rings, a hot glue gun, and some small beads.[2]
    • Take two small beads and thread them through the wire.Use the glue gun to attach them to the center of the wire.
    • Pass the thread through the smaller ring so that the beads are in the center of the ring.
    • Pass the thread through the medium-sized ring, so that the beads and the smaller ring are in the center of the medium ring.
    • Wrap some excess yarn around the medium-sized ring to keep it in place.
    • Thread the thread through the larger ring, so that the smaller ring and beads are in the center.
    • Wrap the remaining yarn around the larger loop to hold it in place.
    • Spray gold paint on the Time Turner.
    • Let the Giratempo air dry for 25 minutes before removing the excess thread.
  4. Step 4 Crea i libri di testo che usava Harry Potter.
    Every year Harry had to go buy new textbooks for his courses, but you can easily make them yourself.For this project you will need some old books (preferably old school textbooks), construction paper, a printer, glue, and an image editing program, such as Photoshop.[3]
    • Measure the cover, back and spine of the book.Design a cover for your book in Photoshop that has those dimensions.
    • If you're not a Photoshop expert, you can find templates for the Harry Potter books online.Make sure you change the size to match the size of the book you chose.
    • Cut the cardstock into a 21.5x28cm rectangle and print your designs on the paper.
    • Using glue or tape, secure the designs you printed on your book.Remove all excess paper and display the book on a shelf or above the fireplace.

    If there is a quote from the books that you particularly like, you can use it to create a mug.For this project you will need a white cup and some different colored markers.[8]
    • Using a marker, write your favorite quote on the mug.Leave it to dry overnight before baking it in the oven at 175°C for 30 minutes.
    • Place the mug in the still cold oven and let it cool inside.If you skip this step, cracks may form in the ceramic.
    • Some of the most suitable quotes for a mug are:"I solemnly swear that I have no good intentions", "Always" and "Felix Felicis".
  2. Step 2 Realizza delle ampolle per le tue pozioni.
    Every year, Harry travels to Diagon Alley to stock up on potion-making supplies, but you can create flasks in just a few simple steps.For this project you will need mini bottles, cardstock, decoupage glue, a magic marker and a rubber band.
    • Cut the cardstock into small pieces.On each of them, write an ingredient for a potion with a magic marker (for example frogs, dragon blood, tears, etc.).
    • Pour a small amount of decoupage glue onto the back of each cardstock label, then attach them to the bottles.Wrap a rubber band around the bottles to help the glue dry.
    • Let the bottles dry, then play with them or display them, as you wish.

    • Place a piece of cardboard between the layers of the shirt.This will prevent the paint from staining the back.
    • Trace the perimeter of a triangle on the shirt.It should take up almost all of the fabric.If the triangle is not dark enough, apply a second coat of color.
    • Draw a line from the base of the triangle to the top vertex.If necessary, make the line more visible.
    • Draw a circle inside the triangle to complete the image of the Deathly Hallows.Make the circle darker if necessary.Let the shirt dry before wearing it.
    • If you prefer not to draw the image by hand, you can search for a template online and use that to create the figure.
  4. Step 4 Costruisci un gufo con dei piatti di carta.
    Harry Potter's owl, Hedwig, was one of his most loyal friends, and with these steps, you too can have your own owl.For this project you will need a small paper plate, two larger paper plates, some orange paper, two different shades of brown paint, googly eyes, glue, and a brown felt-tipped pen.[10]
    • Color the small plate and one of the large plates dark brown.Paint the other large plate light brown.Let the dishes dry.
    • Once the plates are dry, draw a series of wavy lines on the light brown plate.These will be the owl's feathers.
    • Cut the large dark brown plate in half.Glue the two plate halves diagonally over the light brown plate.
    • The dark brown halves represent the owl's wings and should leave an opening where you can see the light brown plate and feathers of the fake animal.
    • Glue the small plate over the wings, to represent the owl's head.
    • Use orange paper to make the owl's legs and beak.Glue the paws to the bottom of the animal and the beak to its face.
