Potter DIY: “Harry Potter”-Themed Sock Board

by Ross · October 18, 2014

So you’ve just done the laundry and are folding through the never-ending pile of mixed up clothing when all of sudden, you notice it– you’ve got a sock that doesn’t have a match! (It’s either the gnomes or those pesky cornish pixies, I tell ya!) Well, that lonesome little sock is going to need a place to hang out for a while, and Colleen from Coll Writes has created the perfect place for them. Colleen had seen a “Free Dobby” sockboard image pinned to Pinterest and decided one rainy weekend to try and re-create it, and is sharing the results with us!

 

 

 

What You’ll Need:

  • Wood board
  • Paint/paint brushes
  • Clothespins
  • Gorilla glue
  • Big, clear labels (optional)
  • “Harry Potter” font (google)
  • The Hogwarts crest (google)
  • Mod Podge (optional)

 

Directions:

Step 1: Paint the board and the clothespins the colors of your choice.

 

 

Step 2: Print out the text, Hogwarts crest, and whatever else you want.  Stick them on once the paint is dry.

 

 

Step 3: Decorate anything else you want to on there.

Step 4 (Optional): Apply a coat of mod podge.  Be careful; it caused part of Colleen’s letters to start to peel.

Step 5: Glue the clothespins on.

Step 6: Hang up and enjoy!

Wasn’t that easy? Check out our other projects on our main Potter DIY page!
