The fanciful world of Harry Potter may seem daunting when it comes to creating your own party at home, based on this theme.
You can use the colors and motifs of Hogwarts School and the Wizarding World to generate loads of ideas that will make your event colorful and unique.
Here are some table setting ideas for your party:
- Use red and gold china - the colors of Gryffindor. Try red dessert plates with gold charger plates underneath, or vice versa. (If your guests are partially to the other Hogwarts homes, the Slytherin colors and green and silver, Hufflepuff is yellow and black , and Ravenclaw is blue and bronze.)
- The right, rich shades of purple can coordinate well with fantasy and wizard merrymaking
- Look for pewter - in the Harry Potter films, scenes in the Great Hall at mealtimes are often set with pewter plates and goblets
- Choose white to fill in - as always, white goes with everything. White plates trimmed with gold would be a good coordinating selection
- I have reclaimed dragon motifs and licensed products even more specifically to the Harry Potter world available online. Smaller items can be purchased, and larger items, like fountains, can be rented
- Check out the Harry Potter Lexicon online for house crests and other motifs to work into the décor for your party
- Select chunky gobelts, tanks and flatware that have an Old English or Old World shape and style - and in coordinating colors and finishes - to complete your table setting.

Setting a classic table for a Harry Potter theme celebration can be easier than a game of Exploding Snaps when you use your imagination to transport your planning, you & # 39; ll be ready to create a fanciful Harry Potter theme party all year round.
