Mischief Managed

Okay.... I have to apologize.... getting settled into my new job has not left much time for blogging.  So I have no new stuff to post, but I will next week!  I am going to show you some pictures from a Harry Potter party that I hosted back in the summer.  We went all out and it was sooooo fun.  Feel free to steal ideas from me.  And invite me when you have a HP party....I love them.

Here goes the party tour:

Welcome to Hogwarts Express!  All you have to do is run straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10....


Upon entering the Great Hall, you must be sorted.....
 

There's lots to see in the Great Hall and around Hogwarts like the House Cup points...


The owlrey....

Professor Trelawney's divination classroom....

Professor Snape's potions dungeon....



The notice board....

Gryffindor Tower, Harry and Ron's room....





Professor Umbridge's Proclamation wall....

And Hagrid's spider friends making their way to the Forbidden Forest....

Fancy a trip outside the castle? 


How about a trip to Diagon Alley?
There you will find Flourish and Blotts....




Honeyduke's....









The Three Broomsticks....


Ollivander's Wand Shop....



You can also buy a broom...





 Read this month's copy of teh Quibbler with Spectrespecs...

Or win the House Cup!!!



Really?  Hufflepuff???





 Or not....



Somebody catch that Snitch!

We had other activities as well, such as coloring your house tie...

Most creative potion contest.....




 
(Weasley Family picture.... )



Harry Potter crossword trivia....

Basically, it was tons of fun.  I'll share all the websites where I found my ideas, but until then, let me know if you have questions about your own party! 

Mischief managed!

That's amazing! Great job with your party! I would be tempted to leave up the decorations for a long time with all of the work you put into it :)
