Friday Finds: Wonderful Wizard of Oz Dolls

Wizard of Oz DVDUnfortunately, I did not win it big in Vegas while celebrating my birthday. But thanks to Dorothy and her wonderful friends, I did not lose big, either. After a week of spending about $20 a day in gambling at a variety of stunning casinos, I landed atop a penny slot machine themed around one of my favorite classic movies, the Wizard of Oz (2-Disc 70th Anniversary Edition DVD currently on sale for $9.49 and eligible for free shipping on Amazon.com if any fellow fans are interested). I'd been dazzled by the ruby slippers feature before, but this was the first time I was awarded the free spins bonus round. The Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tinman and Cowardly Lion faces were all lit up as wild cards. I watched in glee as the wins for all the reels added up to $95! Then I clicked my heels and went happily home the next day.

Today I followed the yellow brick road from Etsy to the Emerald City. Look at the amazing sets of Wizard of Oz dolls that skipped along to join me on my journey. Each handmade figurine has such character!

Giveaway: Clear Quartz Dagger Earrings by WireQueen

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 108th commenter, Andalene! Accessorize an outfit and rejuvenate your spirit at the same time! Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter. The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
