If you are looking for Harry Potter wands, you have come to the right place. People from around the world have come to know and appreciate the fine craftsmanship of magic wands in the world of Harry Potter. It’s not as easy as you may think to choose the right magic wand. In fact, many believe that witches and wizards get the best results with magic wands that find them!

Mr. Ollivander has four criteria which he uses to classify Harry Potter wands. The physical components of the wand include length, type of wood and core material. The quality of how the wand moves is the fourth criteria and is more subjective than the first 3 characteristics.

Magic wands are made from a single piece of wood and have a magical material at their core. The type of wood used often aligns with the date of birth according to the Celtic calendar.

Harry Potter’s birthday is July 31, therefore the type of wood used to make his wand is Holly. Holly is a symbol for protection and is said to ward off evil. At the center of Harry’s wand is phoenix feather.

Magic wands are used by witches and wizards to cast focused spells and channel their magic powers. A wand does not increase magical ability, this is a common misconception. The right magic wand actually focuses magic and when used correctly can create very powerful magic spells.

Harry and Hermione would feel lost and unable to do most magic without their magic wands. This is true of all witches and wizards. In fact, because they acquire their magic wands at a very young age they become very attached and their wands are considered indispensable.

Have fun shopping for Harry Potter wands!

Amazon has a terrific selection of Harry Potter toys. There are also many other reputable websites. Doing a search on Google will turn up endless options. Just make sure you check out customer comments on any site you’re not familiar with. You want to make sure you’re dealing with a reputable company.

ravenclaw crest Harry Potter AccessoriesAdults and children from around the world have been following the adventures of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley.

With a few Harry Potter accessories you can create your own Hogwarts experience right in your own home with family and friends! What a great way to celebrate birthdays, dress up for Halloween or just have some fun!

1.    Harry Potter Wands
Wands are used to cast focused spells and to channel magical powers. These long, thin rods of wood have a magical substance at their core. Although it is possible to perform spells without the use of wands it is very difficult and requires great concentration and skill.

2.    Harry Potter Scarf

An official red and gold striped scarf from House Gryffindor will add the finishing touch to your Harry Potter costume.

3.    Harry Potter Robe
A robe is a loose-fitting outer garment worn by Hogwarts students to attend classes. Each student is expected to own three sets of standard black robes with their house emblem. A robe is different than a cape because it usually has sleeves.

4.    Harry Potter Broom
Wizards and witches use brooms to transport themselves from one location to another. In the world of Harry Potter, magical flying brooms are used primarily in the sport Quidditch.

5.    Harry Potter Sorting Hat
The sorting hat magically determines to which of the four school houses each new student will be assigned. This happens during the opening banquet of the new school year. Each new student takes a seat on a stool and the hat is placed on his or her head. After a moment the hat announces its choice for all to hear.

6.    Harry Potter Glasses
Round-rimmed glasses create Harry’s signature look and will make your Harry Potter costume look authentic.

Thrift and consignment stores are great places to shop for items that can be used to make your Harry Potter costumes. Another popular option is to purchase items online. There are some great deals to be found and they are quickly shipped right to your door.
