Description ...is to make the treats and prizes for a Harry Potter party. For a small library. I designed the labels for all the sweets and made potions, clippings, text book notebooks and sorcerer's stones for party favors. The librarian expect 75 people. That's a lot of candy to bag... Much, much better pictures coming once I get my good camera back. I'm not letting this many props escape me without being photographed first!

Our neighbor came over earlier today to ask if we could help her make a costume for our library's HP party... XD The infection is universal.

She's cutting it a bit fine, isn't she? - shakes head - Your party's tomorrow... But yes, very universal. - laughs - It's the last one...

Well, apparently the librarian just asked her to do it today... My mom whipped something up for her.
Yes, I know. I hear a lot of people are very sad about it... XD

Oh. - shakes head - So your librarian works the same as mine and is fond of making very last minute plans. It's good that your mom got made something for her on such sort notice. Very nice of her.
- laughs - I dunno if I'm sad, really. Or if Ekirรค is. A good series shouldn't try to go on forever. It generally dies a slow and painful death that way. JK Rowling made a smart decision to quit while she was ahead.

Yepppp.... It was actually a pretty good costume, for such short notice.
Definitely. It makes me sad when a concept that would have been good for two or three books gets dragged out wayyyy beyond all originality just because the series is making the author money, it kind of ruins the whole thing for me.

That's good. It can be hard to pull together costumes that quickly. Or it is for perfectionists like me. - laughs -
Tis, very much so. - shakes head - Though sometimes it isn't the author that keeps it going but the publisher...
