DIY Diagon Alley from Dollar tree plastic houses for Halloween or Christmas decoration

Hi everyone, today I'll be making Diagon Alley shops out of cheap plastic dollhouses. I bought mine at local Dollar Tree, and I found similar ones here at Aliexpress:
a.aliexpress.c...
a.aliexpress.c...
Signs and backdrops templates:
drive.google.c...

To prime the houses best is to use primer for plastic. Like this one:
amzn.to/3blbCZL
You can also use a 2 in 1 paint which is selfpriming, like this one (this listing is for 6 cans, so this is just to give you idea of what I mean, I'm sure they are sold offline in stores):
amzn.to/3pLSufV
or this one:
amzn.to/30XpIyr
Bead caps for making potion bowls: amzn.to/2XCVDTk
Fairy lights: amzn.to/3vEPmmF

My grandson is now Harry Potter crazy and i have lots more time to make him little things . i doubt they will look quite as beautiful but I so want to try something with him . more so now !

everything you do is insanely creative (a hunk of yarn turned into an owl with a few gold dots? come on.), but I especially want to make note of your skill and talent with painting. I'm in the performing arts as my career, and I'd paint scenery with you all day long.

Ирина, здравствуйте. Благодарю Вас за Ваше чудесное творчество. Очень понравились домики из Косого переулка. Отдельное спасибо за шаблоны вывесок и фонов. Для меня это новая идея. Я сейчас делаю Совиную лавку из Косого переулка. Мне бы очень хотелось сделать вывеску на домике как у Вас. Подскажите, где можно взять шаблон вывески для Совиной лавки?

[@IrenesDIY]

Добрый день! Ссылки на шаблоны - в описании к видео (справа от названия видео нужно нажать на стрелочку и оно развернется)

[@Лаура-д4ю]

Обожаю Гарри Поттера. Жаль, что в России его больше не показывают🥺

[@blondelightning6200]

Thats sooo cool! I love them! Thank you for sharing! =o)

[@craftablegoodies]

This is sooo neat. When you say you found the houses in a local Dollar store are you in the US? Thanks for sharing your talent.

[@IrenesDIY]

Hi, no, I'm living outside US, but I found similar houses at Aliexpress, the links are in the description box, hope this helps!

[@ashleycollins7807]

Great ✨✨ 💎💪🏽😉

[@gracebommarito3440]

Where did you get the mini sconce lights and street sign hangers?! Thanks!

[@AJ_LoCascio]

I’ve been looking everywhere for these buildings! I cannot find them anywhere and checked the links and searched various names. Can anyone help me out?

[@Lilithmoon1]

They're awesome!
