Craft your own Hogwarts badge

Lookin’ for a splash of Harry Potter fun to add to your wardrobe this weekend? This house badge will get ya ready to cast some magic of your own in a snap!

 

What you’ll need:

 

Felt in house colors (red and yellow, green and white, blue and brown, yellow and black)

Colorful fabric glue

Hot glue gun

Safety pins

Optional: additional decorations

 

What you’ll do:

 

1. Take our sorting hat quiz to find out which house you belong in.

 

2. Grab your felt in the appropriate house color and cut a shield shape in one color, then a smaller shield shape in the complimentary color.

 

3. Using your hot glue gun with care, glue the smaller shield in the center of the larger one.

 

4. Decorate! You can  continue cutting and gluing felt, sketching in decorations and your house’s name with fabric glue (or sharpies or fabric pens), or adding on some fun decorations (rhinestones, anyone?). Use the image below as a guide...

 

5. Pin it onto your shirt, sweater or coat and you’re good to go! For true Hogwarts style, put on your best prep-school gear—think trousers or a pleated skirt and a white button-down shirt.
