• Step 1

  Cut a wooden rod to your desired lenght.

  I ended up with approximately 30 cm (about 12 inches).

• 

  Step 2

  Draw on your pattern with an ordinary pencil. You can use a picture of an already existing wand if you'd like. I used a picture of Hermiones wand for inspiration ;)

  Step 3

  Then it's the hard part: Carving. It's very hard to explain, so you'll just have to try and carv along your pattern until you're pleased with it. Be careful with a knife! I think I cut my fingers once or twice...

  Make sure it ends up being narrower at the tip, and larger at the handle, which is normal for most wands.

• Step 4

  Finally sand it down with sandpaper for a smooth and uniform finish. I used two different types of sandpaper, one a bit rough, and after that a finer one (I know, my english isn't perfect).

  Step 5

  And here is your very own, handcarved, wooden wand! If you tried to follow my horrid How-To, I hope you are pleased with the result! :)
