Harry Potter Moment of the Week (51): My HP Shelf

Harry Potter Moment of the Week is a meme hosted by Uncorked Thoughts. The aim of this meme is to share with fellow bloggers a character, spell, chapter, object or quote from the books/films/J. K. Rowling herself or anything Potter related! A list of upcoming topics can be found here.

It's a free week, and I thought I'd share with you:
My HP Shelf

I'd love to know who else feels the need to put their HP books and all things HP-related on their own, separate bookshelf! Even when I only owned the box set of books 1-4, it had a shelf all to itself, even though I had to get creative with organizing the rest of my books into the remaining space, lol. I can't just lump HP in with the rest of my books, as precious as those are to me, too, because it's Harry Potter.

  1. Now this is a really cool free week topic pick! I looove looking at bookshelves, ESPECIALLY shelves dedicated to HP ♥ And I know I've said it before but it bears repeating: I adore your HP bookends! And I'm DYING seeing your gorgeous Harry Potter Page to Screen volume. Wow! Like you, I have a very special and centrally located shelf dedicated to HP. It has all 7 books + companion novels, a mini cauldron with lightning bolt pendant/chain and 3 HP bookmarks. It used to also house my Marauders Map but the map was slightly too big for the shelf and was getting bent so I had to modify >.< Thanks for sharing the pretty Lee ^^ xx

    1. Your HP shelf sounds sweeeeet! I'd love to see a pic of it one day! :D I'd love to add a mini cauldron to my HP shelf; that would be SO perfect!

  2. Haha, nice! I completely understand. My shelves are divided by cubbies that are about a foot long each, so HP has a cubby to itself. I have doubled-up other cubbies to fit all the books, but not my Harry Potter books! This week I wrote about the moment of the books that made me laugh more than any other...feel free to check it out HERE.

    1. Yay- it makes me happy that I'm not the only one who gives the HP books their own space! Even if I ran out of shelves for the rest of my books, HP would still have its own shelf, lol.

  3. I love your shelf and am so JEALOUS you have the Page to Screen book! I've had my eye on it for so long but just haven't ever gotten it. I think it was like $50 the last time I saw it Costco? And I'm still justifying paying that much for a book when I can use that $50 to get maybe two or three other books. But anyway, I love your shelf! :) One can never have too much Harry Potter.

    1. I paid about $50 for my copy of Page to Screen, and the price made me wince a little, too. But, I HAD to have it, and it's a beautifully assembled book. The pages are printed on glossy paper, which makes all of the photos in it look even more amazing.

  4. It's awesome that HP has it's own space on your bookshelf! And I love the HP bookends too! I don't keep a series on it's own shelf, although I do need to keep them together which is why I haven't organized my books by color which I think would be so cool to do! :)

    1. I've always wanted to try organizing books by color, too. The photos I've seen of shelves like that are so pretty, but I also couldn't bear to separate any series!

  5. Lovely! I wish I had enough room to give them a shelf of their own, but they are the first thing in my bookshelf, as my books are organized mostly by favorites. So HP is first there :D

    1. I've had them for about 10 years now, and they're easily my favorite HP-related items I own. If I ever found more HP bookends, they would definitely be going home with me!

  7. Awwe I love the book ends! I don't have HP on it's own shelf. Oddly enough, I ended up with two copies of some of them. I think someone must have borrowed them and I didn't feel like waiting to get them back. I have them on a shelf with the Percy Jackson series and a Slytherin chocolate frog card, a Hagrid figurine, a Mad Eye figurine, and a glasses frame with pics of Zane and I at Harry Potter World. Have a wonderful weekend :D Jaclyn @ JC's Book Haven.

    1. Your HP collectibles sound so awesome, especially the picture frame! I've been very tempted by the new HP paperback covers; they are SO beautiful, and I love how the spines form one big illustration of Hogwarts. Maybe one day I'll cave....

    2. I agree! I would definitely love to have those :D

  8. I love the bookends, they are so adorably cute. And wow, a whole shelf, I wish I had that luxury, although I need more Harry Potter books to make a shelf I think if I am honest.
