Could you make Harry Potter house plushies?

I did! They just sell really quickly and I'm out of them at the moment. Keep an eye on my Etsy shop, and if you want to, send my shop an Etsy message to let me know which you're hoping for and I can send you a message back when they're available again.

What title do you prefer for the first HP book?

I mean, Nicholas Flamel is a philosopher, not really a sorceror. It's annoying that they thought the US audience wouldn't think it sounds exciting enough.

Husband?

Wife?

I want to start my own Etsy shop and make my own plushies. No one I know can help because they don't know how. How should I get started? I'm only in high school so is this a good idea or should I wait?

I'd recommend reading articles on Etsy's seller handbook! They're a great place to learn about running an etsy shop. https://www.etsy.com/seller-handbook/

As far as being in high school goes, here are Etsy's rules regarding minors (if you're under 18). https://www.etsy.com/help/article/127

How do i get the harry potter's velintines day card's chard?

Are you asking how to get the template to print out for the Valentines? There's a link in the video description to the pattern. Here it is! http://www.laurenfairweather.com/wp-cont...

OK I have this Medium sized Brown Pit-bull / Lab mix that I want to make a costume for, I want to make her one of those young Pale Horses from the Harry Potter books. Any recommendations on how to make wings for her?

Actually, yes! My friend Jennifer made these bat wings for her dog in a tutorial on her youtube channel, and I bet you could just use a different color and adjust the shape: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dn9QEF9e...

Out of curiosity. How long does it normally take you to make your items, DIY's and stuff like that? (Examples: Plushies, necklaces, ETC)

Totally depends on the project and how long I've been making it! Some crafts I can make in 15-20 minutes, some take hours. Plushies take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours each depending on how big or detailed they are. Over time, I get a little faster if it's a project I've made a bunch of times. I tend to work slower when it's my first or second time making something.

What's the difference between your solo music and your Moaning Myrtles music? I used to be a huge fan of the Moaning Myrtles but then I sort of lapsed, and recently I wanted to get back into it and so I googled your music, and it looks like most of it is by yourself?

Yes! The Moaning Myrtles is mostly piano-based music from the perspective of Moaning Myrtle, written by me and Nina Jankowicz. My solo music (Lauren Fairweather) is mostly acoustic guitar music written and performed by me about a wider variety of topics from lots of perspectives, including my own. Sometimes, I'll bring in friends of mine to perform using additional instruments, but it's usually just me.

You can hear all of my solo music at http://laurenfairweather.bandcamp.com see all of my upcoming show information at http://www.laurenfairweather.com/shows and I post lots of video content, including music videos, at http://youtube.com/laurenfairweather

What is the name of your etsy shop? I can't find it on the Internet

My etsy shop is called FairweatherFriends! You can find it at http://fairweatherfriends.etsy.com

Where did you print your business cards? Did you use a template or design them yourself? Thanks!

I've printed business cards at uprinting.com and clubflyers.com before, but I am currently looking for a new place to print my next ones since those weren't super great. They're less expensive at least! I design my business cards.
