Leaky Cauldron and Honeydukes

The plan is to have our kitchen be the food station. One counter will be the Leaky Cauldron, filled with things like pretzels, butterbeer, pumpkin juice, parchment scrolls (sliced tortilla wraps), bat wings, and dragonheart dip. Another counter will be Honeydukes, with Chocolate Frogs, Peppermint Toads, licorice wands, Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, etc, etc.

Naturally, I need signs for these. I bought some unfinished plaques from AC Moore for a little over $3 a piece. Some acryllic paint, Google Images for inspiration, and voila:





I still need to do a coat of poly, especially on the Leaky Cauldron sign. Word to the wise - be sure your wood isn't knotty, as it really messes up the paint.
