I don't have a good luck charm. I pray when I want "luck". So, when Iron Craft issued this challenge, I was actually pretty stumped. Most of these challenges, I've had more problems narrowing what I want down to one item, but with this one, I really struggled. I thought about doing something with the cross, but couldn't come up with something that I liked. I thought of a Wordle or Word Cloud. I thought of doing something printable, and actually had a quote picked out Monday night. But I struggled with the design that would go around the quote (I'm not a graphic artist, I wish I were!). So while I was Googling luck I ran across a reference to the Felix Felicis potion in Harry Potter.
So I found a small bottle and was planning on painting the inside gold and decorating the outside. But, when I opened my gold paint, I discovered that it was all dried out. So, change of plans! I decided to just decorate that bottle instead. So I glued some ribbon and sequins to it.
After this challenge and the Time Turner challenge, everyone's going to think I'm obsessed with Harry Potter, I'm not really. But I do like the books and my daughter's reading them right now, so they're on my mind. Maybe she'll want to play with this once she gets further along in the series.
I hold two full time jobs, one working for a software company as a Quality Assurance Manager and the other as a Mother of two girls.
