Playing around with Ideas ~ A Wizards Store Sweet Shop?
With this photo, I'm sure lots of you will recognise our tentative steps a couple of years ago into the world of Wizards and Magic, with the creation of our first ever Wizards Shop! Well, this shop has been on sale then off sale and has sat in the under stairs cupboard awaiting a decision on what it will become.
Now I have been thinking..... that the little village at Hazel Hill needs a little Wizardly Sweet Shop, so I am playing around with the idea of making this Wizards Store into a sweet shop... what do you think?
I already have a sink, for the sweet maker to use and I could get hubby to make a little table for the sweet preparation bottles and bowls.
There are lots of shelves already in. so these could be filled with boxes of candy fingers and Spidey cakes!
But... hubby reckons I should take the skele shelf holders out, as they don't fit with a soft and gooey shop!!... But, I like them!! So they could stay and perhaps get a bit of candyfloss hair to soften them up? :)
So here I am... playing around with ideas.... of how to wave a magic wand and make our lovely Wizards Shop's stark interior turn into something all soft, gooey and wizardly edible :)
....and now I must fly, for I have an article to write!!
Have a great day,
Julia xxx

Hmmm I must say I think I agree with Hywel on this one Julia! I got your email sorry I havnt replied yet, been super busy but definatly put me down for making sweeties for your new project, Ill get on it this weekend! Ill take measurments of my little corner for you too! Think this shop is a keeper, a lovely wizard candy shop! I have a normal candy shop and have always been tempted to make it into more of honeydukes style, far more magical!! Kate xxx

Hi Julia, perhaps you could paint the skeles? Like mulit coloured sticks of rock, and I like the candy floss hair idea too.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your skellies and I know that whatever you do with them will look great! Chef hats and aprons get my vote also.
ReplyDeleteYes, have a ball with it. Maybe giant lollies in the skellies hand. And lots of signs and colorful jars and boxes. I am having a giveaway, c'mon over and enter!
