Starknuts July Free Pattern Challenge 2009

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.

> Salazar Slytherin's Locket] was originally owned by Salazar Slytherin and became an heirloom of his family. It was a locket of heavy gold with a serpentine S in glittery green stone inlay on the front. In 1997, Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter ventured to the seaside cave where Voldemort had hidden his locket. They were fairly certain that a Horcrux was hidden in the cave. Through great personal injury, Dumbledore successfully retrieved the fake locket Black and Kreacher had left.

HPKCHC Charms Assignment July 2009

Dragonsinger of Hufflepuff turning in her Charms assignment

Tomorrow night, I will have the pleasure of consorting with like minded wizards and witches when I meet some friends in Tulsa for wizard rock and Pottercast Live. I thought it would be nice to make wristwarmers for the girls I'll be sharing a room with there. However, time crept up on me and since two were Gryffindor, I used the geminio spell not once but twice.

The first time was after I crocheted the first wristwarmer and used the spell to duplicate it and make a complete pair. However, since there were two and I could not give one without the other, I used the spell again and as you can see I know have the needed two pairs for my friends.
