I absolutely love the Harry Potter funko advent calendars, but I was extremely disappointed my third year opening them to find a ton of duplicates from the first two advent calendars. Luckily, I saw on my instagram that one of my mutual friends, @bellatrixlestrange_18 had turned their duplicate funkos into little ornaments by putting a hook into the funko heads! I took this idea and ran with it. If you have funkos or legos you’d like to turn into ornaments, follow my steps and create your own unique, one of a kind Potter ornaments!

Gather your materials. You will need:
- funkos, legos, or other Harry Potter figurines.
- Clear plastic ornaments that open (various sizes) I got mine from Michaels
- Superglue
- Hooks or ribbon for the ornaments. You can see I used ribbon
- Scissors
- Optional: printer paper for foldable decorations
- Optional: mini presents, christmas props etc for decoration
For this ornament I used tiny packages you can buy at a craft store, and mini candy canes I bought from a craft store. You can see I originally intended to use Ron and a tiny version of this chocolate frog box I printed out and folded, and he ended up not fitting, so he’ll get his own ornament.
Next I opened my ornament and glued in the presents and candy canes, adding Harry on top. I added a ribbon and looped it into a knot.
Here is how the ornament looks open, without the other half of the plastic ball closed on it.
Here is how the ornament looks closed, with the other half of the plastic ball closed. How do you prefer it displayed?
