Gladrags Wizardwear (Graphics, Arts, & Crafts)Submit Your Siggy Here! Or, come on into to the mad workshop where SS's finest avvy and siggy makers are hard at work and make a request! Also includes SS's art work and portfolios, and HP crafts!
You pass by an older shop. It doesn't look like much on the outside, but like a book, it's the inside that counts. Long glass cases displaying wands of various ages, designs, and woods outline the heavily loaded shelves on the back wall. A comfy, albeit moth-eaten Victorian couch rests in front of the large bay-window. A copper bell sits alone on top of the glass case directly in front of a door leading into the back room and workshop of the store. A sign lays flat on the glass in front of the bell which reads:
Ring for Service
Upon ringing the bell, an older male appears from the back room with an apron slung around his neck to protect his clothes. Polish and varnish stain his hands and sawdust makes his dark brown hair look grayer than it is.
“Hello,” Dmitry Anderson, the shop owner offers, wiping his hands on the apron. “Looking for a wand are you?”
Greetings!
Would you like to have your RP character's wand pixelized so you have something visual for your character profile? Well, you’ve come to the right place! I have been pixeling for as long as I have been on SS. I began by making “dolls” but eventually graduated to pixeling items. Wands and Lightsabers are my current project and examples can be found on my Diviantart page.

Hi!
So, I am working on getting some of my character bios posted and updated (and I have a ton of them!), and I thought it would be cool to have an image of their wands included as well. I'll give you one for now though...
Charter's Name: Ansley Finch Brief Description of Your Character's Personality: artistic, slightly sarcastic but good-natured, somewhat easy-going Character's Strongest Form of Magic/Strongest Spell They Can Perform: he does magical portraiture which I would imagine takes some advanced magic, but otherwise just basic stuff and doesn't duel Wand Size/Length: 10" Wood Type(s): willow Wood Flexibility: swishy Core: veela hair Wand Detailing: I imagine the handle would have something creative, like an inlay design Where Did Your Character Purchase His/Her Wand: Ollivander's doesn't do Veela hair, does Donis Wands? Maybe it could be from there...

Ta da! You can choose whether the silver on the handle is inlay or hand painted. I couldn't decide. I hope you like it.

Oh wow, that is just gorgeous, and really perfect for my character. Can I say the blue is a sapphire? It's her favorite and I think appropriate. Thank you so much!

Hello *waves* I don't think we've met before?? (I'm pretty forgetful sometimes )
Omg, dude I saw some of these pretties in other charries' bios and the looked so awesomely amazing!
And now I badly want some of the awesomeness as well
Charter's Name: Mason Stevens
SPOILER!!: Brief Description of Your Character's Personality
Mason can come off as a bit mean and self-intituled to strangers, traits that she clearly possesses. But to those who know her, she is caring and loyal. She is extremely awkward around new people and attractive members of the opposite gender. She had genuinely no idea how to comfort those who are experiencing trauma or sadness. She isn’t very empathetic about others’ feelings and generally doesn’t care if people like her or not. She is very sarcastic and witty, assets that help her in her favourite activity: Mischief
Despite her resentment of being called a bookworm, she loves reading, but that doesn’t mean that she is an academic. Far from it really.
Despite her self-centred ways, Mason doesn’t hesitate to help her friends. Mason has a strong sense of morals and isn’t bothered by blood-status, even if her family doesn’t share her views.
> She is a SASS-MONSTER
> Likes: Staying hydrated and beautiful, playing Quidditch, reading, mischief, magic, eating, sleeping and overall just being lazy
> Dislikes: Restriction, rules, goody-two-shoes, ghosts, and most of all, *shudder* Pygmy Puffs
Character's Strongest Form of Magic/Strongest Spell They Can Perform: Mischievous little hexes and jinxes.
Wand Size/Length: 11 1/2 "
Wood Type(s): Yew
Wood Flexibility: Robust
Core: Heartstring of an Antipodean Opel-Eye
Wand Detailing: A (pinkish)Rosewood handle with beautiful lace engraved all over the handle. And a few tiny little swirls on the tip of the wand.
Heya babe. I was wondering, would you be able to do a wand for Peyton that he could have purchased when he was 11 before he went to school? It would have been bought in the US though...

Wood Type(s): Blackthorn
Wood Flexibility: Bendy
Core: Open to suggestions.
Wand Detailing: Quite a plain wand, as he isn't the flashy type. Perhaps some small detailing but nothing fancy.
Where Did Your Character Purchase His/Her Wand: This is his first wand, so its almost 20 years old, bought in the US. He wasn't quite as forward and protective as he is now.
