21 Harry Potter Gifts Perfect for Back to Hogwarts Day – CNET

Home decor is one element of Potter-fying your space, and filling the air with themed scents is another. This Harry Potter collection from Homesick includes five fragrance options, including one for each house. (My personal favorite is the one for Gryffindor — it has a nice, warm cinnamon aroma. But each has a unique scent depending on what you’re into — you can check out more descriptions here.) There’s also a cute Sorting Hat air freshener. You can buy individual candles for $44, or the 3-wick Hogwarts candle for $75, or you can get all five candles for $200.

This one’s for the jewelry fans and for those who reminisce on how Hermione bested Hogwarts students by attending many classes at the same time. This Time Turner necklace features a charm with a crystal hourglass and the inscription, “I mark the hours, every one, nor have I yet outrun the sun.”

These cards feature really cool illustrations of characters including Harry, Hermione, Draco Malfoy, Dumbledore and Voldemort. You can choose a deck featuring each Hogwarts house: red for Gryffindor, green for Slytherin, blue for Ravenclaw or yellow for Hufflepuff. There’s also an option to get one deck of each color for $40.

Train sets are cool. Hogwarts Express train sets are cooler. This 37-piece set is battery powered and remote controlled, and features sound clips from characters.

Here’s a beautiful staple to place within those bookends. This one’s a bit of a splurge, especially given the fact that it only includes the first three books in the series, but this illustrated collection can serve as a treasured keepsake and collector’s item. Get the Philosopher’s Stone, Chamber of Secrets and Prisoner of Azkaban.

Coloring books can provide a fun and relaxing activity for people of all ages. This one features more than 80 illustrations of moments throughout the series, from Harry’s first Quidditch match to the battle of Hogwarts.

Here’s another fun game option, but with a tech twist. Use Harry’s wand to draw clues in the air, which other players can view via the Pictionary Air app on their devices. 

I’m adding another clock to this list because I just got this one and I’m obsessed. This is not only an elegant timepiece, but it also has an hourglass on the back that makes it infinitely cooler.

No wizard’s collection is complete without a wand. This option lights up, which makes up — at least in part — for the harsh reality that there’s little else a wand can do in the Muggle world. Unless we summon our imagination…
