Some DIYs are functional, and some ... are just for fun! I'm a big fan of customized art in a space to serve as a reminder of a creative experience, and also to bring personality into play — but customized art doesn't always have to come on a canvas.
When I was decorating the apartment of two girls who happen to be huge Harry Potter fans, I thought what better way for them to display their creativity than with some cute, DIY wands?!
Prep It:
Wands Hot glue gun and hot glue Scissors Twine Colorful thread Rhinestones Assorted decorative items (like shells, faux flowers, pom poms, or little plastic pieces!) Display case
Do It!:
- This DIY is pretty straightforward — plug in that hot glue gun and start decorating your wand! It's helpful to usually work from one direction of the wand to the other — from top down or vice versa. Start with smaller or thinner pieces like twine and keep adding until you feel like your wand represents your inner magic perfectly!
- Let the glue dry, maybe have a duel or two, and display the wands in their very own display case!
