Harry Potter Christmas Trees

How to style a Christmas tree inspired by Harry Potter books and films? You may go two ways – an easier or a harder one. An easier way supposes that you simply decorate your tree as you wanted and then add a Harry Potter topper – an owl, a Sorting Hat or something else like that placing the tree into a cauldron instead of a basket. A harder way supposes creating a real masterpiece and DIYing a lot or ornaments, for example, mini owls, cauldrons, glasses, test tubes with various herbs, Golden Snitches, Gryffindor scarves and faculty emblems and many other pieces that show off your favorite characters and moments. Make some lovely baubles with signs and images that are connected with the books – Deathly Hallows sign, the number of the platform, the scar Harry has and so on – such a craft won’t take much time and the result will be wow. Top the tree with a Sorting Hat, cover it with a scarf or some emblems, add an owl with letters and place a Hogwarts Express under the tree, that will be mind-blowing!
