This Mom Turned Her Daughter’s Room Into Hogwarts

Indra Spronk and her daughter have been huge Harry Potter fans for years. Like many Potterheads, they enjoy collecting merchandise and decorating their house with HP memorabilia. Indra also happens to be an artist specializing in mural painting. A few years ago, she had an idea: she wanted to surprise her daughter by painting scenes from the movies on one of her bedroom walls – a glimpse of Hogwarts.

This, as we said, was a couple of years ago. Indra had an idea in mind of what she wanted the wall to look like by the end of the project, but quickly, things got out of hand. In addition to the mural, Indra started visiting thrift shops and Harry Potter memorabilia shops to find accessories that would complement the newly painted wall. She found an old battered chest, Hogwarts-themed bed sheets, a tiny snitch. She couldn’t stop purchasing new additions for her daughter’s room.

Then she decided to paint some more. What started as a single wall, and a short-term project just kept growing as Indra kept adding details and spilling over to the other walls. Today, there isn’t a single corner in the room that isn’t wholly dedicated to Harry Potter. It has completed its transformation into Hogwarts.
