Magic Wands






Magic wands are always one of the biggest hits of the Children's House. They are made of wool felt and stuffed with pure wool, embroidered and embellished however their makers desire.

The stick is wrapped in ribbon, which is glued at the ends. It is then inserted into the wand top before the stitching is complete and glued into the wool stuffing for security.

We used three patterns: a star, a moon, and a sun.
