Neville's Herbology Notebook

[papilionette]

I made this for the Harry Potter Swap for jigarkhwar. It's a Herbology Notebook containing information about different herbs. I made a few illustrations for it and tried to arrange the information and pictures as fun as possible.

Here are a few pictures, because if I would every picture of it here, image obese would never be the same again. however in the Harry Potter Swap Gallery, jigarkhwar posted a link to more of her favourites.



This is the front of the book. the only thing I haven't handcrafted about the book was the attachment of the leather strap. my father did that for me, drilling the holes and attaching it with tiny screws and bolts.



This is one of the first pages. This was also the style that the whole book has.



This was an addition to the pages with information about Nettle. It's the history of Quidditch.



This was a picture accompanied with the specific species of sage that is burned like incense.



The pumpkin juice recipe that was featured with the pumpkin information.

The book also contained some dried samples like chamomile and nettle, among others and has room to add a lot of notes.

What a wonderful idea, and so beautifully made!

[Dragonflower]

Wow, that's absolutely amazing! It's so beautiful, and clever, and detailed- it must have taken you ages to make. Your swap partner is so lucky!

[PinkPug,INK.]

This is great! I love your illustrations!

[Angelicus]

I love this. The cover is beautiful and I love the quidditch entry - did you make that up?

[papilionette]

Thanks for all the nice compliments, and I didn't make the quidditich entry up. I found the story online and it turned out to be from JKR herself. I thought it would be a nice addittion to the Nettle section.

[Ruby Copperhead]

Oh, this is so wonderful! I am so jealous of your swap partner!

[enakitty]

Wow!
Well done!
