This is how I spend my time now. In my Harry Potter room, in my giant fluffy chair, with a heating blanket and dog on my lap, cross stitching.
I am in LOVE with cross stitch. It's so much fun, relaxing and I'm just very much so enjoying this cold winter day!!!

Took a little break to clear my head. Come up with my 2025 goals and will be back to posting it will just be a mix of Harry Potter and my life.
In other news I survived the Texas "snow". This Michigan born, lived in Colorado for years gal HATES when it "snows" in Texas. People freak out like I have never seen.
It's 31 and we are fine. Today's plan is to bake and craft all day. I'll be cross stitching under my heating blanket watching all the Fantastic Beasts!
Is it cold where you are at? What are your plans today?

Michaels has a pretty large awesome display of Harry Potter items!

I finally finished my Hagrid's Hut cross stitch and I LOVE it!!
It looks so perfect on my wall. It took me 5 days working a couple hours a day and was my first project like this. I am hooked!
The Harry Potter cross stitch book I got has so many projects I can't wait to add a Luna and Mandrake to my wall. If you want the book you can find it here

These were my purchases from a vintage toy store we went to! I am slightly picky since I only have so much room.
However, I fell in love with this little tin box and surprise it had two cute necklaces in it!
I also got this pewter looking Harry Potter ornament for my Christmas tree next year! I didn't realize till I got home he was missing a hand and the wand magic but oh well it's still cute.

We are curled up in front of the fireplace. I am doing my first Harry Potter cross stitch. I am working on Hagrids hut. I'm not perfect at it however I am having a blast!!!
