I made these to go with some Harry Potter stationery for a HP swap with Hannah.

They were a quick and easy addition but kinda cool :D

Please note: the 20mins project time is from start to finish, including glue setting time and nail polish drying time. You could make a batch of these in an hour to use as party favours etc.

I'm also gonna try different coating techniques and would like to see if heat-embossing the swirl designs would work, I'll update this and let you know how it goes.....

Please let me know what you think and, if you are inspired to have a go, post your versions!!
