Not from what I remember, from what I remember they were radish earrings and the dirigible plums grew outside her house.

Can you bake the radishes on the earrings?

Yes, the metal is fine in the oven.

Those don't look much like my earrings. Yes, they are reddish-orange. In the movie Evanna Lynch messed up or something. She said my necklace was to keep the Gnargles away. Oh, and my earrings are made of Dirigible Plums, not radishes. I do rather like the earrings, though. They are quite lovely and unique. Very small. Very practical. I'm going to go paint my friends' faces on the wall. See you!

Very cool! Much better than the other radish earrings Ive seen online. I think I will be giving this one a go :D But I think I will make it with orange clay to make it as true to the book as I can. Thank you!

I saw on a website that the girl who played Luna beat out something like 15,000 other girls fro the part. And that the radish earrings she wore were made by her. I'm not sure how true it is, but I would guess that she's quite a fan if she made her own version.

is it just me or does Evana has a sort of strange sexy air about her?
Oct 31, 2007. 4:45 AMLunaLovegood says:
This is true, but her earrings were not really dirigible plums. They were beaded. As I am Luna Lovegood, I really should have been the one to play myself. See what I mean? Unfortunately, this Evanna girl was taking my place while I was with my friends. Does anyone else personally know Harry Potter? He's quite nice, actually. Very kind to me, even though Ron and Hermione don't always aprove of me. Very kind. I wish Dobby hadn't died. Harry even dug him a grave. I would have helped but I was told to stay away.

I am Luna Lovegood's younger sister, in the muggle world, fearing that my aunt (i'm not naming names) who is a death eater will find me. no offense, but my sister doesn't act like that, and she doesn't use a computer.

Jul 25, 2007. 1:54 PMhierodula says:
weren't those supposed to be orange?
Jul 27, 2007. 11:53 AMrhondalicious says:
The newest book mentions that they are radish like fruit, and are orange. I don't think the older books say anything except that she wears earrings made of things that look like radishes.

theri dirigible plumbs not radishes duh it says so in the deathly hallows in the chapter where they fo to the lovegoods ht e sign saya "keep off the dirigible plumbs"
Aug 20, 2009. 8:34 AMLuna X. Lovegood says:

My earrings aren't a fruit. I wish Harry were here...

Dirigible plums, to be precise!
Jul 16, 2009. 7:35 PMduckythescientist says:
Does anyone have the page/book that these are mentioned in? I like the idea, but I want to read the part in the book to make sure if it make it, it is accurate.

*If I make it, it is accurate.
