Harry Potter Crafts - Portable Swamp

The Portable Swamp was created by Fred and George Weasley to annoy Professor Umbridge.  When deployed, it will cover the target area and is sold in Weasleys Wizard Wheezes.

This was a really quick project to complete.  I used a small glass bowl that can be found at any craft store.  I then added some craft foliage and a couple of creatures to complete it. 





Just for fun I added a little tag that reads - "Portable Swamp - Perfect for the broomstick-riding rantipole in need of a highly-effective, cost-effective prank.  Disclaimer - The owners of Weasleys Wizard Wheezes are not responsible for the consequences should the purchaser of our product voluntarily violate the Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery.  Priced at 10 Galleons"



I purchased this little potion bottle at a craft store and added a little bit of colored liquid to be used to activate the swamp.  The color of the liquid turned out perfect - kind of a murky blue-green.



I wrote a tag for the liquid that reads - "Instructions for Activation - Use dropper to add swamp water (included in purchase price) to extent necessary to achieve desired result.  (Engorgement Charm may be necessary in some cases - instructions included.)


This is just a view of the Portable Swamp from the top.
