My new favorite place to craft and hang out is the marvelous Instructables where you can learn anything from making a coffee table aquarium to picking locks to building a functioning grenade. Sounds scary, but I've seen the most amazing things there. I am so hooked.I'm also going to enter their Harry Potter craft contest in the hopes of winning a t-shirt (with the robot logo) and a Hogwarts Plaque engraved with my name, close up detail below.

I'll post the project link before the deadline, July 25th. I'd sure appreciate your votes. Haven't decided between the HP themed shrinky dink earrings or the felted wand cozy, but am leaning toward the wand cozy. It just looks so gorgeous. I'll let you know.
In the meantime, I have the Harry Potter movie and the big bash Deathly Hallows Ball at Borders to go to. The night of the 20th is going to be very full evening for me and yes, of course, I'll be in costume. Let's hope the last book isn't really the end. I've already had to bid goodbye to Stargate SG-1 this year... It's not so bad if new things come to take old things' place but there seems to be a dearth of good stuff of late and I have to wait til 2008 before the next season of Torchwood starts up. As my friend Patricia would say, Waaaaahhhhh.
