A mum transformed her home in to Hogwarts for her Harry Potter -mad daughter's birthday - and the results were magical.
Sally Galvin was determined to make her Harry Potter-daft daughter, Mary's sixth birthday the most magical one yet - and she didn't disappoint.
Sally turned her home into Hogwarts using old toilet rolls, fishing wire, old paint brushes and a box of Ferrero Rocher.
Using the every day household items Sally created floating candles, flying letters, a snitch scavenger hunt and a wand-making station and a Hogwarts Express pinata. Moaning Myrtle even made an appearance in the bathroom.
Posting the results of her amazing ideas on to the Family Lockdown Tips and Ideas Facebook page, Sally said: "I asked my daughter what she wanted for her birthday a few weeks ago and one of the many things she asked for was to celebrate her birthday at Hogwarts with her best friends.
"From saving toilet roll for weeks to turn into floating candles, to carefully attaching fishing wire to envelopes to recreate the Hogwarts letter scene in ‘The Philosophers Stone’.
"To sanding down paint brushes so we could decorate our own wands at ‘Ollivanders’. Learning new spells and spraying silly string when we had casted a spell.
"Attaching paper wings to ferrero rocher to create a golden snitch scavenger hunt are just a few of the things we have tried to do to recreate the Hogwarts experience for my daughter.
"As we all know this year has been ‘different’ I am extremely proud of my kids with how well they have handled everything this year and I wanted a party to remember."
Sally's hard work gained more than 2000 comments from impressed parents who were amazed by her efforts.
