I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

Continuing the neverending parade of Harry Potter crafts...

What do you get when you cross Photoshop, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge, a Xyron sticker maker, and POLITICAL WIZARD ANGST?!

Eighteen stickers (approximately 2.5x3") in three colors, based on the George W. Bush "Not My President" t-shirts some of the young, angsty political types seem to love.

If I can get to my button maker before Tuesday night, there will be SPEW badges to be had as well. Mischief managed.

Wicked! I need a SPEW button...

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 02:55 am (UTC)

I made a SPEW button for myself ages ago, but every time I wear it, people get jealous! I want to share the love, but my button maker is currently halfway across town - slightly problematic. Alas! At the very least I'll have these guys to hand out :)

haha, that is so great!

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 02:55 am (UTC)

Glad you think so!

I like your icon.

beargarden 9th-Jul-2007 03:10 am (UTC)

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 03:16 am (UTC)

undrthenightsky 9th-Jul-2007 01:46 pm (UTC)

<3 your icon

sorccy 9th-Jul-2007 03:17 am (UTC)

Those. Are. Awesome.

Seriously.

I hope I never get a sticker making device. It would probably take over my life.

peachpeach 9th-Jul-2007 03:46 am (UTC)

Dude...I could so see that happening to me too. Though it would be a joyous madness.

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:02 am (UTC)

I use it for EVERYTHING. It's so much more reliable than glue, and zero chance of wrinkling/buckling from moisture. I love it so much! :}

undrthenightsky 9th-Jul-2007 01:46 pm (UTC)

what is this sticker machine!! i want to see

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 07:11 pm (UTC)

This is the one I have:
http://www.xyron.com/enUS/Products/Xyron_900.html

But they do have inexpensive little guys like this:
http://www.xyron.com/enUS/Products/Xyron_150.html
that work just fine for tiny stickers.

Personally I find myself turning full 8.5x11 sheets into stickers for various projects, so the big one is a must for me. If you have a JoAnn's, may I recommend the 40% off coupon? ;)

undrthenightsky 10th-Jul-2007 12:37 am (UTC)

ooh they ahve this at joanns? i definitely want one

i have the small one but yet to use it i got it for 5 dollars

thebarefootrose 10th-Jul-2007 05:51 am (UTC)

Ooo . . . I was totally going to ask about this. Where did you get your missing button maker? I would like to get one but I haven't been able to find them at any crafty stores nearby me which is just baffling to me.

householdname 10th-Jul-2007 07:08 am (UTC)

I ordered it online a few years back from the folks at Badge-a-Minit.

Not sure you'll be able to find one at a craft store - too much of a specialty item, I think.

sisterite 9th-Jul-2007 03:37 am (UTC)

I want to make a SPEW tee-shirt. Like ... Hardcore.

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:02 am (UTC)

doooo it!

dulceftw 9th-Jul-2007 03:39 am (UTC)

That's really cool.

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:03 am (UTC)

thanks!

peachpeach 9th-Jul-2007 03:45 am (UTC)

Brilliant!

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:03 am (UTC)

I try ;)

Thanks!

im_so_small 9th-Jul-2007 03:52 am (UTC)

AMAZING!!

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:03 am (UTC)

THANKS!!

:D

or_best_offer 9th-Jul-2007 04:37 am (UTC)

I want one! It would look lovely next to my "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" sticker I put on my car instead of actually showing spirit towards my univeristy.

That is an excellently clever design.

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:07 am (UTC)

I wish they were weatherproof - they're just cardstock I ran through my inkjet printer :( Oh, now you've got me scheming up sticker vinyl and screenprinting... maybe one day, but sadly I've got more pressing art projects to focus on at the moment!

Thanks, though!

webmyrcury 9th-Jul-2007 05:40 am (UTC)

Wheeeeee those are so cool!! :D When I went to see Goblet of Fire, a lot of people had SPEW buttons, and yep, I was totally full of envy! :D Your stickers are fantastic too! My sister and I set to and made wands tonight. Photos forthcoming! hehehehehe... ^_^

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 05:51 am (UTC)

ooh fun!

I think I might make candy wands - tastier that way :d

naelany 9th-Jul-2007 03:17 pm (UTC)

oh, if only it could be sugar quills ^_~

householdname 10th-Jul-2007 07:13 am (UTC)

I attempted sugar quills earlier tonight and only succeeded in melting one of my mom's kitchen gadgets :( I did, however, wind up with a couple bright green vaguely wand-shaped things, and a pile of candy that looks like broken glass (which is both dangerous and exciting).

Tomorrow I strike back with chocolate-dipped pretzel wands!

naelany 10th-Jul-2007 02:37 pm (UTC)

lol good luck

librarynoise 9th-Jul-2007 06:07 am (UTC)

OMG I WANT!! those are so awesome. that would look lovely on a shirt, too.

oh man i just realized i have but no thought into what i'll be wearing to see the movie!! crap. haha. thank you for the reminder, though.

householdname 9th-Jul-2007 06:37 am (UTC)

I initially wanted to make it a shirt, but I realized that I already have the whole Hogwarts student outfit together AND all of my screenprinting supplies are far away at the moment! I might do it one of these days.

Get a silly wig and go as Tonks! Love your icon, by the way.
