I do have a very nice resin replica of Hermione's wand, but if I'm going to be playing at the Potterverse for 48 hours, I figured I really needed a wand I could wave about without fear of it shattering. So off I went for a walk in the woods in search of a straight stick.
I was originally hoping to come up with something like the magic wands that were on sale at Accio - but I don't have any woodturning equipment and anyhow, I prefer the natural look. I hope Minerva does too.
Incidentally, perhaps I've been around Livejournal too much, but it's very difficult to sand a wand without risking seeming somewhat obscene. I'll never look at Cedric's grin as he told Mr Ollivander he'd polished his wand the previous night in the same way again.
