Behind the scenes- DIY Butterbeer Shake

Yesterday I put up a video on how to make your own Butterbeer Shake. I've gotten alot of comments about the setup & decor of the video so I thought I would share with you what all was in the video!
I got the recipe from:  http://sugarbeanbakers.blogspot.com/2013/03/butterbeer-shake.html

We filmed everything on a table & I just filled it up with Harry Potter related things!!

First there's a marauders map I got out of the book Harry Potter Film Wizardry.  Behind it is just an old glass vial Matt found at work and we filled it with water & some red food coloring.
Right on top of the map you will see a blurred pocket watch. Matt bought this awhile ago at an antique shop. You will soon learn we are big on antiques! 
The book pictured is just a really old book we have that looks cool and on top of it is the infamous Harry Potter glasses. My mom found these at -get this- the beach! How random! 
Throughout the intro of the video we had a glass bubbling. This is thanks once again to Matt who filled the glass up with water and a couple drops of red food coloring & a chunk of dry ice. Magical isn't it?
Behind it is Harry Potter Film Wizardry & next to it is a globe that usually sits on my bookshelf.
The book in the very back is Harry Potter, Page to Screen. In front of it is a Pinterest project I made ages ago that has a light in it. Then I have an old book that's on top of one of my old journals. On top of both is Hermione's Timeturner.


& That's it! My whole setup. So as you can see there are quite a few HP things but a ton of antique items as well.
I hope you guys decide to make your own butterbeer shake! Let me know how it turns out!


I made this video because a bunch of friends and I are hosting #SummerOfSpells. A 3 month read a long for Harry Potter.
