AAAAA The troll foot umbrella stand that Tonks keeps clumsily tripping on and setting off the portrait of Walburga Black haha Im like commenting as I watch LOL
This box was definitely more book references than movie ones. Those who know the books well get the references pretty much right away. I personally love to listen to the audiobooks at least one a year.
PNB Phineas N. Black was a headmaster at Hogwarts so he had a portrait in Dumbledore's office and one at Grimmauld place. Hermione took it in her bag and used it to spy a bit on Snap4 while he was headmaster and stuff. It was in the books but they didnt include it in the movies.
I was going to write that, but then I saw your comment 😀 I think it’s quite sad, that they didn’t include it in the movie. I just loved how Hermione thought about thinks like the portrait, all in preparation
I am obsessed with the troll foot. It’s charmingly hideous and a sneaky reference to book 5. I’d *love* to put a plant in it and tuck it into a nice little corner of my patio garden.
I mean, they’re not niche references for the books. The portrait of phineas is introduced in book 5, there are references to it in 6 in dumbledores office, and the trio carry it around for like, a third of deathly hallows. Tonks always knocks over the troll foot umbrella stand when entering number 12, which makes the portrait of Sirius’s mother wake up and yell. In general, the entire house of black and black family are known to be dark wizards. It makes sense that the items in the box would be dark. I wish they had included the music box that makes everyone sleepy (until Ginny closed it) that was thrown away in book 5.
In the books, Slytherin's Locket is described as a large, oval locket of heavy gold with a serpentine 'S' in green jewels. Dustin said he made it silver because it felt more Slytherin. The movie locket is a whole different thing.
I ADORE how dark this box is tbh. It reflects how dark the house of Black is as well. Would love a sibling box for Reg and Sirius tbh, that would be really cool!
@@johanna_na Yesss, I just don't think anyone would release just a Reggie box sadly enough so that's why I paired them up 😥 Would love love love to see some merch for him!
The reason the lockets are similar is because the “adult” cover of Deathly Hallows has a locket just like that design! So in a way it’s book accurate!!!
@@cherrywallisDon't worry about that. My memory is so bad I can't remember if I read all the books or not. Lol the only reason I can retain HP references is because my brain absorbs pop culture stuff really easy and they were made into movies. The books I have two sets. One I keep on a shelf and the other I read. The ones I read I have to take notes in so I remember what I read. I don't know if that helps. I really love your channel. Gonna be completely honest I know this video was posted 2 years ago, this is the second time I've went through all of your videos. You have helped me through some really terrible depression that I have been going through due to some big losses. I just wanted to say thank u.
What I did with the mermaid glass piece, & now Kraecher, is glued a magnet on the back. Fridge art!! And if you put the tapestry under a piece of glass for a coffee table, that'd be neat. (?)
I honestly think they outdone themselves in this box. i loved it!!!! i would not use the elf head either but its such a cool detail, and the black family is a dark and evil family and i think they showcased that so well!!!
And for the house elves was an honor to have their heads on the wall 🧱.... 🍒 Cherry is a Gryffindor to the bones; that's why she didn't like the idea to have that head on her wall. 🤭
I don't know if I've ever heard you mention this: have you only seen the movies or have you read the books? The troll foot is pretty prominent in the books. I also didn't like the key but liked the key chain. I don't really see the items as niche myself. They all seemed super spot on for the House of Black and I loved this box. For me the best items are toss ups between the troll leg, house elf head, and the headmaster portrait pin. Best sub box. Wizarding Trunk is by far #1 these days.
Cherry says she has read the books/listened to the audiobooks multiple times, but that her memory is really bad. I hope she rereads them soon! Sometimes i find it a tiny bit frustrating to watch when the items are such clear references and the unboxer isn’t getting them.
@@annem7119 What do you expect her to do if her memory is bad? Re-read them every month? Magically change her memory? You know she's not actually a witch right?
I really liked this box. I think expecting a box on the Black family to have only "light" items is odd. The whole family (before Sirius) was dark, Slytherins, pure bloods. I thought the house elf head was genius! The troll foot was kind of a given for me. Tonks kept on tripping over it making Walburga shriek. Some unusual and one of a kind replicas were in it. The tapestry was really nice too, even though it's been done before.
I thought they hit it out of the park with book references! As soon as the theme of the box was announced, i hoped they would do a troll foot and elf head! The pin and portrait were brilliant ideas to!
phineas nigellus isn't really that niche, imo. He was vital in locating Harry and allowing Snape to present him with the sword. I guess a lot of the film stuff has been done and it's now the book items that are being brought to life. I'd recommend listening to them to increase knowledge base and then things will make sense 😀
What I love about Cherry is that she shares her honest opinion. This may not have been her favourite box but she still did a wonderful job unboxing it. She might just have different taste in what she likes to include in her collection and that’s ok. Thanks Cherry
I actually loved everything in this box. Even the key. Yes it's big but for a shelf and collection it's awesome. This box is all unusual and not the standard for characters etc. The family tree, you could make into a large cuddle pillow. Get a dark fabric for the back ❤ as always love your videos ❤ some dark items but so different
A lot of comments eating at Cherry about missing references. I’ve reread HP many many many times and I can honestly say I STILL miss references all the time and it doesn’t mean me or Cherry love HP any less. I didn’t recognize the relevance of the troll foot honestly and the PNB I recognized his name of course but couldn’t place the name. Again doesn’t make either of us any less of a HP fan. I remembered the house elf head stuffing tradition of the Black family mainly just because that made a strong impression reading as a kid since it was incredibly disturbing. Obviously it’s not the only upsetting thing in HP but sometimes details stick and sometimes they don’t. Hence the rereading, but as adults we don’t always have the time and it isn’t for lack of trying. And when we do have the time sometimes we want to read or do other things which still doesn’t make either of us any less of a fan or love HP any less.
I have read all the books (and listened to Stephen Fry read them multiple times) I guess I don’t have a Ravenclaw brain that holds onto all the details! 😅 I guess I have some rereading to do again…
but sometimes it's such obvious references and I just don't get how you can have an entire channel with it being your job and miss all those references
Box: about one of the most dark families and includes dark themed items. Cherry: *surprised pikachu face* Lol I get where you’re coming from tho cherry, some of these I’m like, what do I do with it?? But they are all great quality at least!
This box is amazing, surely some items are very dark but it is a house of black box so I think everything is spot on! After all the Harry Potter books get darker each movie.
I bought a troll foot at Universal. It was smaller, intended to hold pencils and the like. Instead I use it to hold my coffee sweetener packets. It's just a touch of the wizarding world in my coffee area.
Cherri, re-read chapter six of The Order of the Phoenix! It will have the answers you seek! I waited a long time to see your reaction to the size of the box. I hope it did not break an arm!
Phineas black has a twin portrait at No. 12 grimauld place and his other portrait can be seen in Dumbledores study. This way phineas can travel to his other portait at grimauld place to relay info or secrets
Cherry, you REALLY need to read the books again. You've forgotten so many details that it's makes me sad. Also, they got the Black Family Motto wrong. It's Toujours Pur which means Always Pure.
Cherry I would turn the tapestry into a pillow case. For a smaller pillow if the material is thick enough. Another great video. Keep up all the great work. Also the troll foot pencil holder thing. Looks like you could put a small plant inside it. I would put it outside and use it as a planter.
I know this was done a few months ago but I knew what the foot was at first sight. It’s the Troll foot umbrella stand that Tonks kept on tripping over when ever she entered the house.
You could nail the keyring to your shelves. As for the troll foot, it's a reference to whenever Tonk trips over it while walking the hallway in Grimmauld place. I think it's suppusosed to be an umbrella stand?
Cherry that’s the troll foot umbrella stand! I can’t believe I know that especially since I’ve only read and watched all the books and movies once but still consider myself a big fan! 😅
Dude, I m a french woman your age , and honestly your videos are my feelgood videos. thank you for being that funny and damn sometimes your laugh cracks me up. have a nice evening !
With so many W Trunks, I am begining to have a temporary display- like a seasonal display on top of a dresser. So this month's is Noble House of Black. The tapestry is the table cloth, screaming portrait is in an ornate frame, potion, I added a couple more to the display and troll's foot and all the stuff from this box. Bokrey hanging next to a framed poster of Wanted Sirius Black on the wall above this dresser. It looks really amazing as a vignette of House of Black. But I agree with you Cherry, it is dark. But 12 Grimauld Place is dark! When I look at this dresser, I feel as though I have stepped into Sirius' house!
omg that damn troll foot i feel youuuu. in the fifth game, you could interact with the foot but it did NOTHING. the amount of time i spent at grimmauld place trying out different spells was ungodly
I actually like the details of the key. My first thought was to hang it on a cork board with other Keys and pins. I love how different it is. I found you recently and am absolutely loving your videos. Your energy is absolutely infectious and I look forward to watching your videos.
Ahhh I loved this box and how dark some of the items are. The troll umbrella (now pen) stand is probably my favorite and I think I'll put air plants in it. If you can get out the wrinkles then framing the tapestry would work. I definitely liked this one more than a one I received before. But I'm still not sure what to do with it, so if you end up framing, please share your process!
i feel you. doesn't matter if I have read something 100 times I forget names and stuff pretty easily. can't even say I have a bad memory when I can remember weird specific things sometimes that others don't. it's just really weird.
As charming as you are, Cherry, and as much as I enjoy watching your videos, the more I watch the more I begin to think that you haven't read the HP books.
I haven't been able to make my peace with the troll foot or house elf head, either. They are both packed away. I think they are brilliant, but I just can't get myself to display them. At least not yet. LOVED everything else!
You could lay the tapestry down on a shelf or small table top as a table cloth back ground for magical items. Yes Cherry! Reread the books or listen to audiobooks! Phineas Nigellus' portrait hangs in Dumbledore's office as well as 12 Grimauld place. Hermione takes the one in Grimauld place and carries it in her beaded bag while they are camping. They take it out and ask him questions about Hogwarts.
Just rereading order of the phoenix so recognised all of these items immediately. The ring is thrown out by sirius and kreacher tries to steal it back as it belonged to his dad
I loved the portrait, tapestry, the ring, and the locket. I probably won’t use the troll foot and I definitely don’t plan on hanging up the elf. Appreciate the reference but I don’t want that on my wall
I'd turn the creature glass piece into a nightlight, and I love the tapestry, I personally like the darker themes of the wizarding world so this box was great for me
The tool foot is the umbrella stand the Tonks knocks over often and sets of mother black. The painting is the of a headmaster that hangs in the house and hermoinie takes of the wall and puts in her bag in the 7th book so Snape can't spy on them.
With the tapestry you could maybe use it as a decorative tablecloth or maybe use it as a scarf in your hair or something. I'd personally use it as a tablecloth on a table that doesn't risk spillage from drinks.
LOL I LOVED THIS TRUNK. It seemed that everything she did t like, I really did because it was so nitty gritty HP references and you have to know HP well to get it
Hello love the box! I love how you say why is it so big then say good things are always better big! 😂 I agree with you the key is big, like how they say on the sheet if you could find it you can't miss it lol. You could use the tapestry as a scarf
gurl please finally reread the books! there are so many references that fly over your head these days :( i know it sounds dramatic but for me it takes a lot of the fun away
I also agree, but still watch the whole video because I want to support Cherry and her channel. ThePotterCollector had a really great unboxing for this box!
My favourite thing was the blood purifying crystals and second was the locket. My least favourite was the elf head door hanger. Personally I didn't enjoy this box or much in it and though it was quite a weak/weaker box.
DON'T TELL ME ABOUT THE WONKY WANDS... I know, I know and I'm SORRY! 😂
Spoilers!!!
Ooo im not there yet now I'm even more excited
The foot....Could that be a smaller version of the umbrella stand that Tonks kept tripping over?! (typing this as I watch so...)
@@amywonderland9297 probably
With the tapestry if you can iron it flat, then maybe pin or glue it to a board or fit it in a large photo frame, that could be nice?
AAAAA The troll foot umbrella stand that Tonks keeps clumsily tripping on and setting off the portrait of Walburga Black haha Im like commenting as I watch LOL
I was about to type that in the comments- lol
Ha haha Me too! I was going 'Cherry Deathly Hallows!' lol
Not me coming to the comments to say that only to be beaten to the punch.
Fun fact, for me tripping over a troll foot umbrella stand was a que for my lucid dreams :D
I was screaming at her in my laptop when she opend it and did not know what reference it is :D
This box was definitely more book references than movie ones. Those who know the books well get the references pretty much right away. I personally love to listen to the audiobooks at least one a year.
The Wizarding Trunks magic is creating those little book reference items that me gasp with joy!

@@johanna_na I don't think cherry has read the books as much as the rest of us!
@@libbyann78 yeah, and don’t forget, that she isn’t just opening the box by herself without any pressure to get every reference right away.
I am obsessed with the troll foot. It’s charmingly hideous and a sneaky reference to book 5. I’d *love* to put a plant in it and tuck it into a nice little corner of my patio garden.
That's a great idea!
Me too! Love the troll foot design.
I want it for my garden too!
What a great idea

Couldn't have said it better 👏🏻👏🏻
I came here to comment the exact same thing!
The music box is a great idea!
Yooo @thewizardingtrunk we need the music box asap 🙏🏼
The music box is an amazing idea. I would drain my savings for one to add to my collection lol
In the books, Slytherin's Locket is described as a large, oval locket of heavy gold with a serpentine 'S' in green jewels. Dustin said he made it silver because it felt more Slytherin. The movie locket is a whole different thing.

I’ve read all of the books, and listened to them multiple times - I just have a rubbish memory (yay brain).
YAS

For the key, i think it's so big because it represent the black family. And from Sirius talk it's as big as their ego but that's just my theory.😁
Yeah, I thought it was too big and clumsy. But, then I also thought it's exactly as they would want it.
Haha me, never having seen the movies, understood and loved ALL of these right away! The house elf head was my favorite lol
I love that everything (printwise) looked like oil paintings. It's very aesthetic
It’s the umbrella stand from Grimmuald Place that Tonks would always knock over.
I have read all the books (and listened to Stephen Fry read them multiple times) I guess I don’t have a Ravenclaw brain that holds onto all the details! 😅 I guess I have some rereading to do again…
It's understandable! Not everyone has strong memory, especially if you already read the books from years ago, sometimes alot of things are forgotten
Please do the reread!!
but sometimes it's such obvious references and I just don't get how you can have an entire channel with it being your job and miss all those references
Fans of the book appreciate these.
The Creature Window is a reference to the Universal Studio Harry Potter Grimault Place - he peaks from the windows now and then.
Box: about one of the most dark families and includes dark themed items.
Cherry: *surprised pikachu face*
Lol I get where you’re coming from tho cherry, some of these I’m like, what do I do with it?? But they are all great quality at least!
Cherry: “they do make very beautiful boxes” *commences to throw said beautiful box* 😂
This box is amazing, surely some items are very dark but it is a house of black box so I think everything is spot on! After all the Harry Potter books get darker each movie.
I bought a troll foot at Universal. It was smaller, intended to hold pencils and the like. Instead I use it to hold my coffee sweetener packets. It's just a touch of the wizarding world in my coffee area.
The troll foot is the umbrella stand that tonks keeps tripping over, in the OOTP
I think the troll foot is absolutely brilliant 🤣🤣
And the pin of Phineus’ portrait was very clever - I loved that
Cherri, re-read chapter six of The Order of the Phoenix! It will have the answers you seek! I waited a long time to see your reaction to the size of the box. I hope it did not break an arm!
The troll foot is the troll foot pot in the doorplace of Grimmauld place.
Phineas black has a twin portrait at No. 12 grimauld place and his other portrait can be seen in Dumbledores study. This way phineas can travel to his other portait at grimauld place to relay info or secrets
Cherry, you REALLY need to read the books again. You've forgotten so many details that it's makes me sad. Also, they got the Black Family Motto wrong. It's Toujours Pur which means Always Pure.
Because of copywrite issues they had to make an adjustment to the motto!

You can use the stained glass as sun catcher on your window shelf it look amazing when sun is shining trew it ❤️😊👌
the troll foot could be used as a planter🪴 ?
Agree about the key.
Another option is you could use the tapestry family tree as a scarf 🧣.
You could put the troll foot in the garden and plant something in it. Like a succulent or something.
I'm not sure if you're into real-life witchcraft but I'm planning to use my tapestry as a Tarot cloth!
The stars on the ring are probably a reference to the tradition of naming members after stars/constellations!
I loved the troll foot umbrella holder! The stained glass pieces go on your bookshelf, between books, with a light behind.
I know this was done a few months ago but I knew what the foot was at first sight. It’s the Troll foot umbrella stand that Tonks kept on tripping over when ever she entered the house.
The chamber in the locket is for charmed items or items to make it a talisman.
You could nail the keyring to your shelves. As for the troll foot, it's a reference to whenever Tonk trips over it while walking the hallway in Grimmauld place. I think it's suppusosed to be an umbrella stand?
Cherry that’s the troll foot umbrella stand! I can’t believe I know that especially since I’ve only read and watched all the books and movies once but still consider myself a big fan! 😅
The overhead view is much better this video! I felt like I could see all of the items clearly - good job!
The Noble House Of Black is one of my favourite Wizarding World themes!
Dude, I m a french woman your age , and honestly your videos are my feelgood videos. thank you for being that funny and damn sometimes your laugh cracks me up. have a nice evening !
You could make a shadow box with the tapestry in the back and some Black family things in the front, or like things that remind you of Sirius :)
you should totally put the ring on a chain and wear it as a necklace!
The troll foot!!! The umbrella stand Tonks always trips over it!!!
You can totally put that tapestry in a frame . That would be badass matted and framed.
I love the troll foot. I think it would make a cute and funny planter.
Am I the only one who finds the elf head absolutely hilarious!?!
The Troll Foot, The Pin and The Portrait are all explained in OotP I think.
Aye I’ve not read the later books for a while
You could always use the key part of the key ring as a Christmas Tree ornament!
With so many W Trunks, I am begining to have a temporary display- like a seasonal display on top of a dresser. So this month's is Noble House of Black. The tapestry is the table cloth, screaming portrait is in an ornate frame, potion, I added a couple more to the display and troll's foot and all the stuff from this box. Bokrey hanging next to a framed poster of Wanted Sirius Black on the wall above this dresser. It looks really amazing as a vignette of House of Black. But I agree with you Cherry, it is dark. But 12 Grimauld Place is dark! When I look at this dresser, I feel as though I have stepped into Sirius' house!
omg that damn troll foot i feel youuuu. in the fifth game, you could interact with the foot but it did NOTHING. the amount of time i spent at grimmauld place trying out different spells was ungodly
You could take your tapestry and have it framed or perhaps stretched on a frame? A custom framing or art supply store might have ideas as well.
I actually like the details of the key. My first thought was to hang it on a cork board with other Keys and pins. I love how different it is. I found you recently and am absolutely loving your videos. Your energy is absolutely infectious and I look forward to watching your videos.
Oo you could tack the tapestry to a piece of cork or foam and then frame it! It would be sturdier and flatter and you could adjust it.
Create a lovely couch pillow with the tapestry for your new couch.
You can use the ring as a scarf holder.
Ahhh I loved this box and how dark some of the items are. The troll umbrella (now pen) stand is probably my favorite and I think I'll put air plants in it.

You look especially pretty in this video Cherry! Green is definitely your color 😊
As charming as you are, Cherry, and as much as I enjoy watching your videos, the more I watch the more I begin to think that you haven't read the HP books.
i agree with you! i like collecting things that are prettier and less disturbing- though i can still appreciate the references!
I haven't been able to make my peace with the troll foot or house elf head, either. They are both packed away. I think they are brilliant, but I just can't get myself to display them. At least not yet. LOVED everything else!
The house of black is one of my favourite places in Harry Potter. Best wishes, your loyal subscriber. ❤
You could lay the tapestry down on a shelf or small table top as a table cloth back ground for magical items.
Yes Cherry! Reread the books or listen to audiobooks! Phineas Nigellus' portrait hangs in Dumbledore's office as well as 12 Grimauld place. Hermione takes the one in Grimauld place and carries it in her beaded bag while they are camping. They take it out and ask him questions about Hogwarts.
The foot is the umbrella stand that tonks is constantly knocking over, it's in the hallway of number 12 grimmauld place.
Just rereading order of the phoenix so recognised all of these items immediately. The ring is thrown out by sirius and kreacher tries to steal it back as it belonged to his dad
The pin is a pic of Phillius Nigelius Black he was a headmaster in hogwarts and has a portrait in the headmasters study and number 12
Item 1. Troll Foot, pen pot or plant pot. It's referenced to the fifth book and how Tonk's kept tripping over it, it was used as an umbrella stand.
How could you not love that key? It is gorgeous
My favourite item is definitely the locket. If I had a locket like that I would wear it every day.
I loved the portrait, tapestry, the ring, and the locket. I probably won’t use the troll foot and I definitely don’t plan on hanging up the elf. Appreciate the reference but I don’t want that on my wall
That troll foot would make a fun planter. That’s what I’d use it for!
I'd turn the creature glass piece into a nightlight, and I love the tapestry, I personally like the darker themes of the wizarding world so this box was great for me
Tonks trips over the troll foot (Has umbrella's in it).... in the house of black! This hurts my heart that you don't know this. LOL
The tool foot is the umbrella stand the Tonks knocks over often and sets of mother black.
The painting is the of a headmaster that hangs in the house and hermoinie takes of the wall and puts in her bag in the 7th book so Snape can't spy on them.
With the tapestry you could maybe use it as a decorative tablecloth or maybe use it as a scarf in your hair or something. I'd personally use it as a tablecloth on a table that doesn't risk spillage from drinks.
You could wear the tapestry as a scarf and put the ends through the ring to hold it in place!
Use the troll foot as a flower pot for your garden!
I love the Troll foot umbrella holder
The Creature glass is like a photo from Universal Studios. You can watch the window and every few minutes Creature peeks out.
I'd bloody love a house elfs head mounted. That's got to be the darkest thing hahaha
LOL I LOVED THIS TRUNK. It seemed that everything she did t like, I really did because it was so nitty gritty HP references and you have to know HP well to get it
You could use the foot as a door stop with something heavy inside.
Hello love the box! I love how you say why is it so big then say good things are always better big! 😂 I agree with you the key is big, like how they say on the sheet if you could find it you can't miss it lol. You could use the tapestry as a scarf
I would DIE for the mounted head! I’m weird and love dead things 😍
gurl please finally reread the books! there are so many references that fly over your head these days :( i know it sounds dramatic but for me it takes a lot of the fun away
Totally agreed
I also agree, but still watch the whole video because I want to support Cherry and her channel.
ThePotterCollector had a really great unboxing for this box!
I agree.... especially since it's her job
My favourite thing was the blood purifying crystals and second was the locket. My least favourite was the elf head door hanger. Personally I didn't enjoy this box or much in it and though it was quite a weak/weaker box.
