Question

Can girls dress like Harry or make their own characters with his wand and glasses?

Community Answer

Absolutely. Opposite-gender cosplay is known as "crossplay", and is quite popular. Your OC could have any Harry-esque elements you'd like.

Question

If I'm a girl, do I still have to wear trousers?

Community Answer

No. I would wear a black skirt and white shirt, and maybe a hair pin. You can also leave your hair down, it's your choice.

Can I make my own snitch?

Yes. I used clay and painted it, then I stuck in feathers for the wings. Check YouTube for tutorials.

How do I tie the owl to my shoulder?

Community Answer

You could hot glue it to your robes, or if you want it to be removable, use a couple of safety pins.

Question

Where can I get a broom?

Community Answer

Try checking online if you want a Harry Potter one. For a straw broom, while it depends on which country you are in, such brooms should be fairly easy to come by, such as at hardware stores. You can also try thrift/charity stores near you.
