Made It Monday: Wand

Here’s the first wand I’ve ever actually finished. I made it for a Hufflepuff in a Harry Potter care package swap I was in a few months ago. I’m pretty happy with it.

Quote Friday: Doctor Who

Thing Thursday: Wand & Card

This year for my birthday, my coworkers appealed to my fandomy nature and gave me this great Star Trek-themed birthday card. They also gave me this great glowy wand because I eyed some of the glow wands that the little girls (who were, we presumed, going to Disney Princesses on Ice) in Minneapolis had.

So it’s Elsa meets Star Trek. Oh, wait. Jared TWG did that already, didn’t he?

Wildcard Wednesday: Quidditch

On Saturday, I hauled my equipment over to Great Falls, VA, and taught about 20 kids how to play muggle Quidditch. The rules are pretty hard to get across, but (luckily) many were Harry Potter fans. So once they got the hang of it, they had a lot of fun.

I’m available to hire out for parties 😉

Top Ten Tuesday: Original NES Songs

On Sunday, I hooked up my childhood Nintendo (yes, my original one from 1988/1989; it still works perfectly, as do all the games). I popped in Dr. Mario at once and started playing. It really took me back. Last year, I found a nice website dedicated to video game music. Without further ado… Oh, but keep in mind I pretty much had to buy my own video games and I didn’t have a lot of money as a kid; so there isn’t very much variety 😉

Made It Monday: Chest of Dragon Eggs

I’ve made a few different sets of these dragon eggs in a wooden chest for Game of Thrones swaps and another as a present for my father (note: not a wedding present). They’re a lot of fun to make, and I can make each one unique with different types of dragons and colors of eggs.

Thing Thursday: Always Keep Fighting

Last month, I caved and bought myself some Always Keep Fighting apparel in support of Jared & Jensen’s charity initiative. I know, I know, I’m not supposed to buy more shirts.

So I bought a hoodie instead. A moose & squirrel hooded sweatshirt that supports worthy causes? That’s a win-win. I mean, it’s a Supernatural hoodie! Perfection.

It arrived today and I put it on straight out of the package. It’s so warm and soft, I almost never want to take it off.

License Plate: OEEYORE

Yes, given my love for Eeyore, Winnie-the-Pooh is totally one of my fandoms.

I wish I’d thought of this one! Oh, Eeyore…

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day from this fangirl! 🙂 I hope you have a good one.

Not sure who to credit this to, as I found it on Tumblr uncredited. But whoever made it is brilliant.
