Some book settings—such as Hogwarts in the Harry Potter series—are unforgettable. Transport yourself to your favorite story scene with this project.

Reading a terrific book instantly puts you in the middle of the action. What are some of your favorite books? Surely everyone who has read a Harry Potter book has been transported to a place where owls carry messages and school feasts appear before one's eyes.

8.
Glue the cutout to the craft stick in the cube. Now you can wander around Hogwarts and no longer feel like a Muggle.
