The Snitch has been caught- 150 points to Hufflepuff!

Hufflepuff wins!

Less than a week ago I walked into the craft store with the intention of getting some elastic for a skirt, and I walked out with the makings of some awesomely nerdy jewelry!

Golden Snitch Neclace

A Golden Snitch necklace! 
I found the wings in the 50% off boxes, and immediately scoured the bead aisles for the perfect snitch golden ball bodies. I came across a pack of 18 that were (thankfully) also 50% off. However, there weren't any more wings to be found in that store! I found another pair, but it was also the last pair by a different brand. Weird right? They look exactly the same!

But seriously though, I've been wanting to make a snitch necklace for quite a while now, and I guess this was just the opportune time. It's a fairly simple construction too, so it didn't take very long.

And since I have so many "bodies" left, and have now found a supplier for the wings, I will be making more and offering them in my Etsy along with the Hogwarts house themed flowers that I keep forgetting to post.

I absolutely love my new Snitch necklace! Though, if I ever were to be in the Harry Potter universe, I don't think I'd be a Quidditch player. I'm not great at sports and afraid of heights, so I think I'd rather just watch... lol.


And yes, I am a Hufflepuff, and proud of it! Loyal, friendly, and good at finding things. That's basically me in a nutshell.

So tell me, what House are you in?

  1. Oh my goodness, I love it! It's sooo cute! And you're right, the wings do look exactly the same even though they are different brands!


    I have no idea what house I'm in, I think I took a test ages ago and I landed in Hufflepuff, which sounds about right for me! :P



    Hufflepuff Rules!

  3. Love it! They're so cute. I've always thought I was a Ravenclaw, but I was sorted into Slytherin in Pottermore.

  4. Such a cute necklace! I've been sorted into Gryffindor since the beginning of online quizzes (lol) and proudly was sorted into it on Pottermore too. Though, some days I feel more like Hufflepuff. :)

  7. Always happens, right? You walk into the craft store looking for something very specific and then walk out with a bunch of new stuff and ideas, haha. But this looks amazing and I can't wait until you put it up on your shop! :)

  8. Yes! So much HP themed awesomeness going on! :D I'm excited about those both too. I was sorted into Gryffindor a couple of times, which seemed weird to me but I'm sure I'd pull it off

  9. I also walked away with some rainbow colored yarn, haha! So yes, exactly! I never walk out with only the one or two things I need. I end up with like 2 or 5 other things! Thank you so much! :)

  12. Thanks! Both are good :) I got sorted into Gryffindor a couple of times, but I feel most at home being a Hufflepuff.

  13. Thanks! Well if you were sorted into Slytherin, it can't be all that bad of a house! :)

  15. Thank you, Jessica! :) Hufflepuff does rule! We get such a bad rap, but we're the coolest house there is!

  16. I love these snitches! They are so cute. I'll have to go check out your Etsy shop soon! So jealous that you have a broom! I wanted to get one, but I have no use for it. Sigh.

  17. I'm ordering some wings soon now that I know I can bulk order them online, so yay! There will definitely be a big announcement when they go up. :) I just use my broom as decoration. If I hadn't been lazy it would be hanging up on my wall right now.

  18. Love this idea! My 9-year-old daughter is re-reading the Harry Potter series again. She loves HP. Will keep this mind for her birthday in November!

  19. Your snitch necklace is so cute! And I'm a Hufflepuff too. I like to say that finding things is my superpower :)
