So I'm still waiting for my owl letter...but I'm totally packaged and ready to go to Hogwarts when it comes. You with me? awesome. In the meantime, we muggles can still make a little magic of our own, with some paper and a little imagination :) These little DIY treat boxes are perfect for that Harry Potter party I know you've been dying to have. Or just as a sweet gift for a muggle friend in need of some cheering up. You'll also be happy to hear I've designed these boxes to be super simple to assemble so there will be no need to slave away like a house elf!
