Hi there, Potterheads!

I know some of you wanted to make your own letters for your friends, so heres all the stuff youll need. This is my model for my best friend (her last name is Johnson) plus all the pictures telling you what font goes where. To do this, youll need Fonts from Mugglenet.com (Parry Hotter, Lumos, Parseltounge, and Magik as all other fonts come pre-installed) Coffee (Ill explain in a moment) Paper Printer access A student Okay, lets get started! 1. Copy and paste everything after the font explanation picture onto another word document. 2. Start soaking your paper in coffee for just a few minutes, then take out to drip dry. 3. Change the fonts according to the picture. 4. Print out the message on the dried parchment (the coffee soaked paper) 5. Put in an envelope and address according to the first picture presented here. 6. Enjoy surprising your fellow Potterheads!

Good luck! ~Rosie/Hermononucleosis
