Prompt: Happy Holidays

Post by Prof. Gustavo Flores »

Just in tune for this time of year, December’s prompt will require you to, first of all, think about a Holiday you think could be celebrated in the wizarding world. Any kind of festivity will do, celebrated at any time of the year. Once you have think about your new holiday, please design a HOLIDAY CARD to portray that festivity you created!

Please share your work replying to this thread. Remember to keep everything HOL appropriate, adhering to all HOL rules, and keeping your submissions 600x600 pixels or smaller.

You'll earn 20 beans for completing this prompt as well as it counting towards the chance to snag our shiny Ink Splatters award.

There is no deadline as such for these prompts but if you’d like it to count towards your chance of earning the award for a specific year, we’ll need it by the end of that school year. If you’re comfortable sharing, then post below. If not, email your image and description to us via hol.bookclub @ gmail.com (without the spaces).

Happy Holidays!

Graphic shows a pillar candle with its wick alight. The background is very dark. The bright white flame of the candle glows into the dark background and radiates into the candle itself, causing it to glow. Words above the candle and flame "Festival of Light". Words below the candle and flame "Celebrating Life - by peoples all around the world."

Text says: Happy Magical Unity Day! Freedom from discrimination, we come together as one! Squib, muggle, half-blood, pure-blood. We are all united!

Background is a sky with four lovely stick figures standing on grass with wands held up to the sky, all lit with lumos. They are standing close together as a sun comes up over the horizon.

Image shows light turquoise card, surrounded by dark turquoise border. The light turquoise part has small, different types of wands on its background, turned diagonally. The words on it are World Wandwork Week with three spell's wandwork shapes between words 'world' and 'wandwork' and then three more between words 'wandwork' and 'week'. Words are dark blue.

This holiday card celebrates World Wandwork Week, since discipline in handling a wand is of great importance, so young children do not end up with buffalo on the chest, vomiting slugs or losing a buttock.
