Although I have the word “holiday” in the title, I’m sure any Potterhead would welcome these gifts at absolutely any time. Let’s get into it!

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them: Magical Characters and Places Coloring Book: I’ll admit, I’m still not over the adult coloring book craze. This particular one focuses on the human characters and includes gorgeous art deco patterns to color as well.

Kitchen Stand Mixer Decals: I did not know this was a thing that was missing from my life because I did not know it existed. Now my stand mixer just looks sad and naked. Friends don’t let friends have sad stand mixers.
