My Goal for 2022

My Goal for 2022

I have decided to have a fresh start on my blog. I am going to make it more a personal blog about my big goal for 2022. I hope you enjoy my journey to hopefully conquering it. 🙂 My goal for 2022 is to move to Orlando, Florida or at least out of my parents house, lol. Every time I visit there for vacation, I wish that I could live there permanently so I could visit the parks whenever I wanted. I…

Amortentia Potion

I really like how this edit came out. I decided to add some potion with some smoke at the last minute and I really like it! Here is how I edited this picture : FaceTune 2: used the detail tool on Advanced Potion making book to make it have more depth to it LightRoom: All the same settings as my last post. I really like the darker look to my photos these days. PicsArt: Used the stickers to find…

Just Smile

I did a lot of editing with this last post on my instagram. I think it turned out pretty well! I really like the addition of the smoke with the book. I think it brings a more magical look to it. 🤓 I started my editing with FaceTune 2. I used the teeth whitening tool to brighten my teeth (lol). I used the concealer tool to fix the right fake eyelash. I’m not sure why but my eyelashes were not…

Spellbinding Outfit

I really like using my poster board for flatlays. I think it makes it look so much more interesting with the marble background. 😍 I used FaceTune 2 with the teeth whitening tool to whiten the background/fake marble. I used PicsArt to make the crease in my poster board not noticeable by copying the image and moving it slightly on top. I also used this app to add the blue sparks to my…

Dreaming of Diagon Alley

Dreaming of Diagon Alley

This is one of my favorite edits I’ve done in awhile. A big thank you to my sister, Allison, for giving me the idea. I tried to make the entire background Diagon Alley but I looked so misplaced and totally edited in, haha! I found the Diagon Alley picture on Google and added the picture to my original with PicsArt. I turned the opacity down to 75 and erased the right part (of the Diagon Alley…

A walk around the backyard 🚶‍♀️

A walk around the backyard 🚶‍♀️

For this picture, I took it in my backyard. We live by a super busy road so I’m surprised there are no cars in the background. 😂 For this picture, I didn’t do much editing. I really liked the original but I wanted it just a bit brighter and greener. I only used LightRoom for this edit. The settings I had for this picture are : Exposure +.07, Contract -12, Highlights +13, Shadows +10, Whites…

Butterbeer 🍻

One of my favorite things at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando is drinking butterbeer. My mom and I tried everything you could get in the butterbeer flavor – ice cream, hot, cold, frozen, and fudge! My favorite would definitely be just the regular cold butterbeer. My mom bought us some before watching Celestina Warbeck’s Accio Christmas show and she asked for a straw for my regular…

Oh My Gourd, It’s Fall

Oh My Gourd, It’s Fall

It’s finally fall here in Maryland. Fall is my favorite season. I love all the colors and how all the leaves change. The only thing I don’t like about fall is that winter is right behind it. 💀 Here in Maryland, it gets really windy and really cold (for me). I’m looking forward to getting away from it in December – I’m going to Florida for a week!

Another thing that I love about fall is the…

Whew, I’ve been gone for just a bit 😩

Whew, I’ve been gone for just a bit 😩

I finally found a frame for my Hermione Granger wand art. I am so excited on how it turned out.

The art is a perfect addition to my shelf display. I got it from a shop called The Fizzy Pumpkin on Etsy. They have a ton of Harry Potter stuff so you should definitely check it out!

I got the frame from Home Goods. I had a little moment there however. I was looking at the frames and a lady…

Butter beer Recipe

I made butter beer the other day. It was really good and easy to make it. The cream did make my stomach hurt so I substituted it with whipped cream. I made the recipe that Cherry Wallis has on her YouTube channel. I’ll put a link down below.

I just finished The Sorcerer’s Stone illustrated by Jim Kay. I’m super excited to start reading The Chamber of Secrets!

My 1st Wand

My first wand from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. It’s a Holly wand. 😆 I did some research about holly wands. Here are some cool facts about them:

The wood from holly trees have magical properties and thought to repel evil. The wood is one of the rarer kind of wand woods.

The wizard/witch that has a holly wand chosen to them are good leaders and thoughtful. They are loving and…

Astronomy Tower Puzzle

I apologize that I haven’t posted in awhile. Life is just going by too quickly sometimes and I forgot about my blog site. I hope to keep it up in 2020 and start posting every Wednesday.

I finished the Wrebbit 3D Astronomy Tower puzzle last week. This box did not have ages on it but it has to be for adults or for smart children. 😂Or maybe, I’m just not that great at puzzles, haha. It took me…

My Favorite Backpack

This is my favorite backpack I’ve ever had. It’s a really nice size and fits so many things. I’m debating putting on my Harry Potter pins on it but I don’t want it to be ruined!

This backpack was for a really good deal so I had to have it. It sells for $59 but it was 40% off, I had a 20% off coupon, and $10 kohls cash. The backpack came to only $17!

I love me some good deals.

The Wand Chooses The Wizard

The Wand Chooses The Wizard

I got this beautiful wand from @once_upon_a_conartist at the Potter Party: House Cup hosted by Transcendent Events. I went with my sister, Allison. I had the best time even though Hufflepuff won the house cup.

This wand is perfect with my room decor. It feels really nice and the quality is great! My sister got a purple and black wand. It’s also really pretty but mine is better, haha jk!
