Hufflepuff Flipflops

2009-07-04T03:33:23Z

Made these today not only to wear on my trip this week, but as entries for HPKCHC Muggle Studies and the starknuts July Challenge
Temperatures are reaching 105-110 degrees F in Oklahoma. But they're releasing Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince in theatres so what do you wear? Flipflops. comfortable and cool. But plain flipflops just don't have pizzazz. What's a girl to do?

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for another episode of "Pimp My Flipflops". In today's show, we turn a pair of plain black flipflops into Huzzah Hufflepuff Flipflops using this simple and quick pattern found here, courtesy of Lion Brand Yarn.

Crafty Spam with Photos!

2009-06-15T00:03:41Z

This week, with no computer at work till it was repaired, I've spent time crafting to avoid the frustration it was causing with things I couldn't get done.

So on card_challenges , though the June Challenge mentioned Dads and Grads, I have neither in my family this year. Both Joe's and my father's are no longer on this side and my son don't graduate till next year. Make the card now and I'll never ever find it next year! *grins*

So I made a card that can be used to just say 'hi' or encourage - an all occasion card - using the Gate Method

( Open me! )

In the meantime,using the miuku the cat pattern, my entry for the June Challenge over at starknuts is inspired by the greatest inspiration ever,fabulous_catt herself.

( Gaze on the likeness )( Gaze on the likeness of the fabulous one )

As for HPKCHC, I've finished my Ancient Runes OWL with the completion of my triquetra tote. Also the badger baby bib and 2 sets of wristwarmers for quidditch

And in other crafts, I've completed a billywig, assorted wristwarmers, wands, cozys, atc's
( More crafty goodness )

June Herbology Assignment

2009-06-07T05:00:26Z

The assignment this month for Herbology involved gillyweed and the oxygen bubbles as a result. We were to show these in use of the bobble stitches. Here's my completed assignment

While searching for gillyweed to harvest for potions class, I came across a rather surprising sight. It seems there is a Hufflepuff alumni that enjoys returning - via the lake - to take in the quidditch games and cheer on her house to which she still is loyal. On this day, she was wearing her rather lovely, hand crocheted bobble stitch house scarf and was kind enough to allow me to take photographs which I share with you now. For it seems, dear professor, that Loch Ness Monster, also known as Nessie, is a graduate of Hogwarts, House of Hufflepuff!

Another photo of the lovely scarf she wore to see the bobbles in every stripe!
