This past weekend, my hubby and I happened upon a Movie Gallery that was going out of business and selling their DVDs at deep discounts.  Among our purchases that day, we snagged a copy of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the only one we were missing up until now.  That got me thinking about today’s featured shop.

We went home to spend this past Christmas with my family.  Now, this makes Christmas shopping a little tricky since I really need to buy everything online and have it shipped ahead of us to avoid having to check more bags and get slapped with those ridiculous baggage fees.  In my search for the perfect gift for one of my dear cousins, who is a huge Harry Potter fan, I was very pleased to discover Celestefrittata.

This shop is a must see for Potter fans.  She has the most awesome collection of hand bound notebooks that look like textbooks that came right out of the shelves at Flourish & Blotts.  Astronomy, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, she has it all.  I purchased a spiral bound Daily Prophet Journal and a set of Owl Post stationary that came complete with stamps in various denominations or wizard currency – and the shipping from Italy was much less expensive than checking another piece of luggage at the airport!  Here are a few pictures to tempt your inner witch or wizard.
