Several tables were placed end to end in the garden. Fred and George bewitched a number of purple lanterns all emblazoned with a large number Seventeen, to hang in midair over the guests. Thanks to Mrs Weasley's ministrations, George's wound was neat and clean, but Alani was not yet used to the dark hole in the side of his head, despite the twins" many jokes about it. Hermione made purple and gold streamers erupt from the end of her wand and drape themselves artistically over the trees and bushes. "Nice." Ron said, as with one final flourish of her wand, Hermione turned the leaves on the crabapple tree to gold. "You've really got an eye for that sort of thing." he complimented.  "Thank you, Ron!" Hermione beamed, looking both pleased and a little confused.
