Did You Know?
Queen Victoria was known for putting jackets and dresses on her pups, causing clothing for dogs to become so popular that fashion houses for just dog clothes started popping up all over Paris. — Fox
It would be easy to assume that Evangeline came to the Lady Morgana only to pick fights. That wasn't true at all. They also had very good biscuits.

Magical Trades?
#1
What are examples of "magical trades" (whether in HP canon or something you can think of~) beyond wand-making, broom-making, and metal-charming? I need a magical trade for a character and idk if I'm into any of those three!

Any muggle trade that can be made cooler via magic — toymaking, brewing, cauldron smithing, masonry, etc.

I've always kind of headcanoned that you can hire professional illusionists for short term jobs or events. Like for one of "Armando's" parties there were illusory dragons flying around, and Ophelia def hired that out because she didn't even get an OWL in Charms :P

Also any magical item you can think of would need to be created and maintained by a magical craftsman, so "pensieve peddler" could totally be a trade. Or anything else you can think of.

I wonder if they have an equivalent to the Guild of Master Craftsmen actually? Slightly off-topic but it would be interesting, and a good alternative for WC kids who can't afford Hogwarts, to become apprentices to masters and it's good networking!
