🪄🎄 A Little Christmas Magic for My Wife | Calling All Potterheads Around the World!

Hello, fellow Potterheads!

I'm working on a special surprise for my wife's birthday on November 22nd, and I'd love a little help from the Harry Potter community.

My wife absolutely LOVES Harry Potter and Christmas. So I came up with an idea: What if I decorated our Christmas tree with postcards sent by Harry Potter fans from around the world?

I'd love to fill our tree with little pieces of the Wizarding World and messages from people who share her love for this magical universe.

Here's what I'm looking for:

🦉 Handmade Harry Potter postcards

🏰 Postcards featuring Hogwarts or your favorite locations

✨ Little drawings, artwork, or creative interpretations

💌 A handwritten message sharing your favorite Harry Potter memory, character, or quote

🌍 Even a regular postcard from your hometown with a little Potterhead greeting!

You don't need to purchase anything! A homemade postcard, a simple note, or a little drawing is more than enough. This is about the thought and the people behind each postcard, not how much anything costs.

I'd especially love to hear from fans outside the United States. Imagine having little pieces of the Wizarding World arriving from different corners of the planet!

If you'd like to participate, please comment below or send me a private message. I'll share the mailing details privately.

I'm hoping to make this something she'll remember for years.

Thank you for helping me bring a little magic into someone's Christmas.

Mischief Managed. ❤️

Hello,

My name is Bryan (make sure to spell it right) and I WILL BE 29 years old on OCTOBER 11th, and boy do I miss good ole fashioned Birthday Cards. Unfortunately, this year has been a rough one and I could use some cheer on my birthday. My 4th and youngest child was hospitalized in June. Then my wife and I were told that my landlord is selling the house we rented, and we had to move in July. Follow that with the stresses of moving of course. Then my last remaining grandma passed away in August. And I still am not done, on my way to work, my tire races me down the highway leaving me on the side of the road with a dead phone and a 5 mile walk home just earlier this month. However, while all that really was a drag, the only thing I would like you to feel sorry for is my empty mailbox on or around my birthday if YOU didn't send a card!! LOL. I really will keep looking for them!

Make them as extravagant as you'd like or buy them and keep them basic, I don't care. I will cherish them all (my wife can attest). PM me for my address! Sorry if I offended, I am actually a pretty masculine man who just likes to have a little fun at times!

My nephew admits that he has too many toys at home and is currently not interested in getting much toys for his birthday. So this has given me the idea to instead give him tons of birthday cards from this community as my gift to him.

I have always wondered what it would be like to have penpals as a kid. I’m 20 and I have never tried penpaling until recently. I knew that my nephew would never be interested in it but I feel like having him get a bunch of cards from this community would at least give him a good idea as to what it is like to have penpals.

For those who want ideas: My nephew is a big fan of football and basketball. He plays football himself and hopes to go pro one day.

Quotes from famous football and basketball players would be good. Or cards that are sports themed.

He also likes collecting Pokémon and sports trading cards.

His favorite video games are Fortnite, Roblox, and Marvel Rivals.

Cards based on kid friendly YouTube channels are also a good theme.

If you have kids that are good artists then you can definitely have them send cards to us! He would love to get cards from other kids.

For writing on the card, I suggest writing your favorite motivational message or a good piece of advice that a child will understand. Postcards and greeting cards, either bought or handmade, will all be accepted.

And fyi they will be sent to my address so that I can hold onto them before surprising him with all the cards on his birthday.

His birthday is March 10 and I’m posting here now to get enough cards in time. I think March 5 will be a good deadline so be sure to send your cards by then.

Edit: I changed the appt for five days away as they had an additional opening. Thank you again ❤️😊

My son and I are taking out first airplane ride to great grandparents in a few weeks. Exciting!

I didn't realize but I may need an identification card for him and have realized in order to get an ID for him from the DMV we need two pieces of mail. In his name. 🙆🤦.

His DMV appointment is in 3 days so we'd need it sent asap. We live in the USA. Is it possible to send a card to our address, even if it's just a smiley face inside the card.

Thanks for everyone's help! I'd just need two people's help. Thank you so very very much!

My boyfriend & I are moving!

But lately hes been going through some shit that is personal...but you all can imagine your own story. Because I'm not going to disrespect him by sharing anything.

He's definitely one of the kindest, most caring and giving souls I've ever met. And he and I are moving into a new spot this weekend!

I'd like for him to receive some sunshine through the USPS mailing system. :P

What is he into? -- MUSIC in general -- Grateful Dead, Limp Bizkit, Beastie Boys, Gorillas, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Sublime, Pink Floyd, etc. -- Cult Classics ( Kevin Smith, Quentin Tarantino, Lars Von Trier, Michel Gondry, George Lucas, films ) -- Hats, Hats, Hats -- Baby Blue, Orange, Purple... mainly Baby Blue -- Vintage/Antiques of most anything

This is basically a repost.. So the 15 aka Next sunday or a week from today of this month (double gasp getting closer) my sister is turning the BIG 50.. tech 51.... is there such a thing as reverse golden birthdays lol.. any ways I was a bad brother and didnt get her any cards for her birthday last year.. i know tsk tsk.. any ways so this year with the help of the community i plan on card bombing her with all the cards i can. some of her likes are unicorns, dungeon and dragons (which itself is celebrating 50 years), star wars especially r2d2, and her six grand babies. if you would like to send me a card to give to her ill gladly provide my address etc.. standard thank you rules apply all i ask is you some where put your screen name on the envelope so i dont have to ruin the surprise of your card to find out whom sent it.

(This is a REPOST from two days ago :) it was 1am so I figured I'd send it one more time for anyone who missed it. To those who have already seen this, hi! You may carry on 💚🎶)

Hi all! So I haven't posted here in ... Ahem. A year. In fact, the last time I've been active here was on my old account u/eviemazing for my birthday last year ☠️ apologies, a lot has happened and I got overwhelmed.

AnYwAy, I'm turning 20 on the 30th of this month, haha! And noting how I don't go to school, don't drive, work part time and still live with my parents, that's terrifying 🙃 a quarter of my life is over and I've done nothing with it, yay! But instead of sinking into guilt and existential dread, I figured that I'd come back and ask for some positivity (and forgiveness)

Anything would be appreciated, but I like Eeyore, pokemon, coffee (I work at Starbucks) stickers, Nintendo, poetry, anything 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (I'm a trans masc enby ace) taco bell (I lOvE taco bell) animal crossing, song recs and GREEN 💚. Also, I got my ears pierced recently and I'm in love, so if y'all could recommend me some cute Etsy shops that'd be great 🥺 thank you!!!

Hello beans! 🫘

Id appreciate if you can help me with this quest ❤️

Thank you all for your help, Im sorry if you see many of my posts, I am just trying to reach my goal

Repost:

Hello guys!

I have created this (secondary) account in the hopes of fulfilling a very important Request. Mods are aware of who am I (as so will you if we have exchanged before)... but if you need a hint of who am I: nonoyo

Anyways, my lovely beans, we will be celebrating 10 years of marriage with my best half. I would appreciate if you guys can help me with anniversary words and maybe some advice for a young couple to keep this marriage going strong! We are super happy, but we always love to hear/read others experiences and advice... or whatever you wanna share with us, really!

I want to celebrate my hubs and our marriage. He is the most awesome human bean 🫘 he is my rock, my everything, and I cannot imagine my life without him. I want to do something different for our anniversary. Initially I was trying to get a card from each State, but that has proven to be very hard to do. I have some States which I havent gotten a lead from, so I am changing this a little bit: If you happen to have a card, a postcard, a bookmark, or something related to the States I'm missing, I would super appreciate your help. It doesnt have to be mailed from that destination, as if I wait to do so I won't be able to fulfill this quest.

Please make sure to not write what this card is about on the envelope - I dont want to spoil the surprise. Im aiming at making a map or something like that and putting the card from the state it came from, but Im not sure if that would work... still working those details out. Our anniversary is on DECEMBER (5th), so I want to get ahead of the date and make sure I have all the states by the mid November.

We live in Virginia - if that matters. I will be listing the states here and will be crossing them out as I get a lead, and completly deleting them from the list as I receive the card (They will be shown as completed at the bottom)

As time has gone by, it has shown me it's becoming hard to achieve this... if you state has already been taken or you are from another country, PLEASE HELP ME! I dont think ill be able to get all the states :<

Anyways here's the list, and thanks again even if you just showed up to read

1. Alabama

2. Alaska

3. Arizona

4. Arkansas

5. Connecticut

6. Delaware

7. Georgia

8. Idaho

9. Indiana

10. Louisiana

11. Maine

12. Maryland

20. Pennsylvania

21. Rhode Island

22. South Carolina

I never get any post and it's quite frankly upsetting, I'm 18/f so it would be great if whoever is sending is similar in age between 17-25 I guess, cause otherwise it might creep me out a bit, but I love different cultures and meeting new people so I think that would be really cool :)

Repost - I'd like to get a few more responses! Fill out this form for me to use AI to generate the image that will be on the front of the card I send you. I will also be using AI for the message I write on the card :)

This is basically a repost.. So the 15 of this month (gasp) my sister is turning the BIG 50.. tech 51.... is there such a thing as reverse golden birthdays lol.. any ways I was a bad brother and didnt get her any cards for her birthday last year.. i know tsk tsk.. any ways so this year with the help of the community i plan on card bombing her with all the cards i can. some of her likes are unicorns, dungeon and dragons (which itself is celebrating 50 years), star wars especially r2d2, and her six grand babies. if you would like to send me a card to give to her ill gladly provide my address etc.. standard thank you rules apply all i ask is you some where put your screen name on the envelope so i dont have to ruin the surprise of your card to find out whom sent it.

Please send me cards to deflate my ego.

Let me begin by asking you to please read the full post before doing anything. Thank you in advance.

Hello everyone, hope you're having a good day. My other offer went very smoothly so I thought I would post another one.

This one is US only this time around, just because I have more US stamps to spare. Sorry other countries, but 3 out of US people claimed my last offer so at least I am getting to spread some out of US cheer. There will be other offers in the future from me that are WW. It almost always comes down to stamps, though, postage is expensive! Also, these are specifically Christmas cards anyway, so it's probably best as this ensures they will arrive before Christmas.

So this time around I have 7 Christmas cards with a pug sitting in front of a Christmas tree on the front to offer.

To claim please:

1. Have a US address I can send the card to.

2. Finish reading this post.

3. Comment here saying you'd like one.

4. PM me your name and address with the subject "Pug Christmas" in the title line.

Please note: This offer is first come, first serve this time as that is what I find easiest. So if you miss out I am very sorry, but I will have offers in the future at different times and maybe even do them different ways once I get comfortable enough doing offers in general. (I find them pretty anxiety-inducing for probably stupid reasons.) So if you miss out, fear not, there are plenty of cards to claim from me in the future!

I am allowing anyone to claim, but if this doesn't work out well I may put restrictions on my future offers.

AND this is the end of this post. Happy carding!

[Request]40th Birthday Love[WW]

Y'all, I'm gonna be 40 in the 23rd and I'm for real freaking out . I know I don't look it, but...this past year has made me feel it, both physically, and emotionally. Do think you could maybe shower me with a few birthday cards possibly? I just want a genuine smile on my face this year for my 40th.

Thank you in advance guys Amanda

I had a lot of fun with this last time. Fill out this form for me to use AI to generate the image that will be on the front of the card I send you!

Warm Greetings to all! 😚🎈✨💌✨

I'm offering another round of prayer cards. This is another pack, a new design. I am happy to share. I am hoping to offer encouragement and hoping that the cards will take you to a place of solace, as they have me during my time of distress.

There's 20 in the pack and so I'll just keep sending them out until it's fulfilled. 📬

Edit: There are enough cards to go around! Please do not think me recently sending you something means I cannot send again. I have loads of stamps!

Please comment here and send DM for my accountability!

Hey ROAC Fam,

With many people who have a talent for the arts, I would like to enjoy cards with a drawing of a dinosaur, dragon, unicorn, or the Loch Ness Monster.

I don't care how well it is drawn. It can look like it was done by Da Vinci or looks like it was done by a someone within an hour.

If you want to recommend another type of creature do comment below :)

Would any one like to send me a post card
