PROJECT STORY
Harry Potter room

November 2022

I am a massive Harry Potter fan (I used to pre-order the books so I could get them as soon as they were published) and have seen the films many times. So when someone comes to me wanting anything Potteresque, I am all over it. This is particularly true when the client is a 13 year old boy with significant health issues that, resulting in a limited life expentancy.

Charlie’s Aunt asked me to turn one of the walls in his bedroom into a magical scene featuring Hogwarts castle, and a moon reflected over the water. Then on the adjacent wall, she wanted Charlie and his two siblings depicted as witches and wizards in Gryffindor robes, she also asked me to include Dobby, one of Charlie’s favourite characters.

The Outcome

The plan was to take Charlie away for a couple of days and then reveal as a surprise, but the best laid plans don’t always work out. “Thank you so much for doing this. We all absolutely love it and Charlie is over the moon.  He rushed in his room before I could get a chance to video,   but I managed to get a couple of pictures of him.” said Keri, Charlie’s Aunt. ” He said to say thank you to you and that he loves it very much 💙 I don’t know how you do it but you made one little boy very happy.  I can’t say how much I appreciate this but I/we are so grateful .”
