Hello everyone,
Welcome to What’s Pinning?!
I have
found a very interesting project on how to make a wand, I will repin under the
What’s Pinning?! Board at http://pinterest.com/jadex7/what-s-pinning/ so we will all be able to keep up with the projects and
recipes that have been done. Our first project was posted by trainsandtutus.com
but I found that it had been pinned from Kates escapades, How to make a harry
potter wand
so a big thank you to them for their step by step instructions.
You can find the link for the step by step instructions below or above on my pinterest page. If you were able to find supplies cheaper please let
us know.

| Here’s what I found, the original pin states to cut it down to chopstick size but I found that a ¼ inch x 12 inch worked fine without needing to be cut. |
 |
| I had messed up and left part of a dowel showing so I cut a small square from construction paper and rolled it over that part, it worked pretty well. |

| The wands painted with black coating. |
