It’s the most wonderful time of the year: the time where I make way, way cheaper versions of Harry Potter ornaments and share my insights with you! Let’s get to it with a DIY Bertie Bott’s Ornament.
Hit up my amazon storefront for all of my ideas on books, Harry Potter, Harry Potter Christmas, and more!
To begin with, gather your materials. You will need:
- A color printer/access to a color printer
- White paper or cardstock (if you can believe it I actually made mine pictured out of regular paper!)
- Bertie Botts Printable
- Ribbon/twine/yarn/ornament hook
- hot glue gun and hot glue sticks
- Scissors
- A hole punch (optional)
Print out your Bertie Bott’s Printable Ornament. I use this one and saved them two to a page. Cut out the boxes.
Cut along the lines pictured below.
Fold your Bott’s Box along the edges where the top triangles dip down.
Fold the small edge over as well.
Now fold under the box’s bottom as pictured.
It should like this before you start gluing.
Take your hot glue gun and glue the small folded edge to the box.
Then glue the bottom of the box closed.
Fold the triangles at the top of the box inward.
Glue the top of the box shut. *If you are a making a regular Bertie Bott’s Box and plan on putting beans inside leave open.*
Cut a length of ribbon.
Either hole punch your box or do what I did, and glue my ribbon directly onto the box in a loop.
Hold ribbon and glue into place until it sets.
Hang on your tree and enjoy!
