Bethlehem Church Christmas Party

Harry Potter Party

I went to the $1 store and bought "science fair" folded cardboard displays.  I painted a large window and then painted bricks all around for most of them.  I glued a sign (one for each location in Hogsmeade) at the top center of the windows or on the bricks on the sides.  I love how they turned out.  Even my daughter helped paint the bricks.

At Madam Malkins we will make house flags and ties. 

At the Daily Prophet we play word games with these puzzles.  We will also make Shrink Dink charm bracelets.

Boys Camp Care Package

The theme for this years boys camp is BOOT Camp (Build Our Own Troop).  The scripture that goes with this is 1 Peter 3:8.

I made camouflage bandanas and put the BOOT CAMP logo on them with iron-on Cricut vinyl.

Short Speeches were assigned to the boys for evening firesides including topics:  Unity, Charity, Brotherly Kindness, Armor of God, Faith in Christ, Scripture Study, Prayer, I can do Hard Things, Peace in Tribulations.

I have leather stamps and 2" squares of leather that the boys made leather key chains with.  I also sent 4x6 (3 pack) canvas with rocks/pebbles from the DollarTree to make pebble art.  The boys loved these activities.  Other activities included hiking, water skiing, and fishing.

I sent them with board games including "Battle Ship".  Sent them with small Army Men from DollarTree.

I sent a picture of Christ to hang in camp.

Gun powder went with Pixi Sticks

DIY Harry Potter Sorting Hat

To make a Harry Potter Sorting Hat you need a witch hat pattern & 1 1/4 yard vinyl.  I made a pattern with a .50cent thrifted witch hat taken apart.  I cut out the hat taller than the pattern by a few inches.  Sew your cone together then grab it in different places and sew a dart.  Sew your dart about 1 inch.  Turn your cone right side out and sew on the brim.  My brim needs some wire sewn around the outside and it will be complete.  Also sew 1 inch wide 1 foot length ties to the hat to look like the sorting hat.  I love how the face turned out.
