Lego Projects: "The Burrow" (2012)




I was never happy with the official Lego version of The Burrow (aka the Weasleys' House) from Harry Potter. I just felt it was too small. Granted, the Weasleys are supposed to be poor, so they don't exactly live in a mansion, but there are nine of them, and it is said in the books that Percy, Ron, and Ginny all have their own bedrooms. Okay, right? So it should be fairly big. Or at least, bigger than... that. I'm not the only one who thought so, apparently, because a Google search of "Harry Potter", "lego", and "burrow" brings up many larger Burrows that people have designed (examples: herehere, and here.) 

But here's what I came up with....


Harry and Hermione are visiting. Harry, Ron, and Ginny are coming back from practicing/playing Quidditch...


Fred and George are practicing spells...


Mr. Weasley is home from work, and Mrs. Weasley is watering the garden using the aguamenti spell...


Hermione is reading. (Surprise!)



And Hedwig's just chillin', keeping an eye on things...


And finally, here we have a few of the Weasleys' animals...


This model went to BrickCon (Seattle) in 2012 (with a few differences, as you can see below.)


And now, I promise to try to avoid making any more Harry Potter-related posts until the convention next month!
