A SHARED CREATION FOR HARRY 

Harry Potter, that is.  One powerful literary figure that has inspired artisans to create. Now "jointly".

Presenting the Harry Potter felted scarf bookmark by Laurie:

Hand knit from Peruvian wool (click to enlarge and see texture), it is adorned with one of my Harry Potter book beads (The Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone).

I use "jointly" loosely, since all the creating was done by Laurie. (I simply gave her permission to use the book bead). It is a beautiful stocking stuffer for your Potter fan! What are you waiting for? Head on to her shop,  Do You Like My Hat? for details.

Harry Potter Jewelry Gift Ideas



As an adult fan, the Harry Potter series has inspired me to create a  charm collection of jewelry and accessories. Charm bracelets are interesting because they can re-tell a story or play with a recurrent theme that interests the wearer... and what a story Harry Potter has! When creating one of my bracelets, I was limited only by space and somewhat by weight  (don't want too heavy a thing on your wrist) - but there were a lot of story markers to choose from. It quickly became apparent that I had to narrow the list down, put my designer's cap on and match charms together into one cohesive theme. Easier said than done - but I think I've managed it! As an admirer of the officially licensed bracelet from the Noble collection ( seen here ),  my intent was to create something equally unique, in silver tones at a great value. Between Fawkes the phoenix and Floo network fireplaces, the bracelet manages to re-create a Hogwarts world, something I know all Potter fans will appreciate!  To see the collection, visit Just Charming!
