Hogwarts Acceptance Letter W/ Wax Seal

Ever wondered how to make a Hogwarts Acceptance Letter? Well, here's how! Follow this easy step-by-step instructable and you'll be off to Hogwarts in no time!

You will need the following:
2 sheet trays
a hot glue gun
salt dough or sculpey clay
toothpicks
red paint
paintbrush
vegetable oil
an envelope
1 sheet of copy paper
cold tea
paper towel
scissors 
an ice pack
wax paper (parchment paper works to!)

Pour your cold tea into one of the sheet pans and then line the other sheet pan with paper towel.
Take your sheet of copy paper and your envelope and let them soak in the tea for 2 minutes.
Take them out of the cold tea and put them on the paper towel. Let them dry until they are crispy.

This is optional but if you really want it to look like the one in the movie, you can trim the flap of the envelope. Look at my picture or find one on the internet to see what it looks like.

I'm selling these with the wooden wands I make so I couldn't use the copy of the real one from the movie because it has copyrights. So I typed my own version out but you are more than welcome to use a different copy online. Just print it out on the sheet of copy paper that you stained with the tea.

This is a little tricky. Your going to want to roll your clay or salt dough into a short cylinder. 
Now make one of the ends very flat. 
Bake it at 170 degrees and stand it up so the flat side is on the bottom. Before it gets totally hard take it out and carve in with your toothpick whatever symbol you desire. But remember to carve it in deep (about a quarter of a centimeter).
Now let it bake the rest of the way on its side.

Lay the wax paper on top of the ice pack. Squirt a big thick circle of hot glue on top of the wax paper (Make sure that the glue is placed on top of the ice pack).
Dip your stamp in the oil so that the etched in side is coated.
Stamp it on the glue and hold in place until the glue is dry and hard.
Slowly lift up the stamper and peel the glue off the wax paper.

I chose a dark red to paint my seal but you can use whatever color you want.
Leave to dry for a while and handle the finished seal VERY carefully because the paint chips real easily.

This is the last step.
I did not want to glue my seal on completely so when someone opens it, the envelope doesn't get ripped open and destroyed.
So I glued on half.
So what you want to do now is to glue the bottom half of the seal to the front of the envelope. So then you can just tuck the envelope's flap under the seal!

Put your letter in the envelope and VOILA! You now have your very own Hogwarts Acceptance Letter!!!
