Soot Sprite Embroidery (by loveandasandwich)
HP Deathly Hallows release t shirt: here is the shirt I made for the midnight showing last Thursday. You can find the downloadable layout for your own iron-on transfers on the click-through (or here). I borrowed inspiration for the Sirius Black quote from thereadables, and used the Lumos font from Mugglenet.com. It was simple, but perfect on short notice.
OK, I’ll lay off the HP-related crafts soon and focus on more general/random stuff.
So there are waaaaaay too many creative Harry Potter inspired projects out there. I’ve only skimmed the top! If you want MORE, start by checking out these great resources:
- HarryPotterCrafts Yahoo Group: You have to sign up, but it’s free and then you can share in the magic.
- About.com DIY fashion section: Lots of DIY Harry Potter-themed costume ideas.
- The Leaky Cauldron Craft section: I pulled quite a few from here, but there is plenty more!
- Artists Helping Children Harry Potter Roundup: There is so much here, I just can’t even…
- DIY Life Pottercraft: more Potter crafts!
- Craftzine Harry Potter Craft Roundup: and a few more to round it all off.
Hope you enjoyed this week’s posts, and OMG THE MOVIE COMES OUT IN A FEW DAYS…

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows inspired easy DIY necklace.
Harry Potter Deathly Hallows t shirt tutorial, using acrylic paint.
Custom Harry Potter shirts could easily be created with fabric pens, acrylic paint, or iron on transfer paper. Different kinds of stitching & embroidering would be neat, too! All you need is a blank shirt, a few supplies, and a little inspiration. Here are a few clever ideas…
- Dark Mark shirt
- Embroidered lightning bolt.
- “I solemnly swear that I am up to no good”
- “I have stuck with Harry until the very end”
- “Muggle born”
- “Nah, it’s not polyjuice potion…I always look this good”
Have you already made a Harry Potter themed shirt?
Download Harry Potter fonts on Mugglenet.com. You’ll find the ones pictured above and more! Great to use with some iron on transfer paper to make a custom Harry Potter shirt. (via)
In honor of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 movie that is coming out in the near future (maybe you’ve heard of it, non?), I am going to be featuring Harry Potter craftiness ALL week.
So if you don’t enjoy the world of Harry Potter, you might want to check back in a week. Everyone else, you’ll be able to find all of the posts here.
Now who’s excited?!
