Hagrid's hut, comprised of 2 round sections with Witch hat peaks, is a charming dwelling located at the edge of the Forbidden forest. The kindly Hagrid makes his home a welcome spot for Harry and his friends to stop by, perhaps for afternoon tea. About Department 56: over thirty years ago, Department 56 began as part of Bachmann, a premiere retail florist in Minneapolis. Bachmann used a numbering system to identify each of its departments. The number assigned to wholesale gift imports division was, you guessed it, 56. Now headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Department 56 has become a leader in the giftware, collectibles and holiday decorating industry and is best known for our hand-crafted lighted villages, Snow babies figurines and extensive lines of holiday and home decorative products.
