Follow this mandrake tutorial to make this Harry Potter DIY project.
I’m a big Harry Potter fan. You might remember my free Potter printables, my Hogwarts desk organizer, my Mad Eye Moody sleeping mask, or my DIY Pygmy Puffs. This year I took a slightly creepier turn. I made a screaming mandrake! I’ve been so excited to share this project with all of you as well as the fans of Rae Gun Rambling’s Harry Potter Crafts series. I hope you all love this project as much as my kids and I do!

My kids flipped when they saw this project. They wanted to pull the mandrake out of the dirt, and they had fun wearing their Hogswart robes and ear muffs to recreate this fun scene from the story.
