Kurt Adler 2010


Glinda and Wicked Witch Christmas Tablepieces! I so hope they do the rest of the characters! These photos are hard to see so I'll describe as best I can. Glinda is wearing a bit of fur that matches her magnificent gown. She is carrying a gift and it looks like there's a snowflake at the top of her wand. The Wicked Witch seems to have a bit of holly on her hat and the hour glass she is holding has a gift tag hanging from it. She has candy canes sticking out of her pocket and her skirt is embroidered with snowflakes. Wouldn't it be cute if the gifts they are carrying are from each other? I'm happy to see some originality with regards to Christmas in these pieces.





Dorothy Spinner Tablepiece


Wicked Witch Crystal Ball Tablepiece




Wooden Wicked Witch Tablepiece





87 MM Lighted Waterglobes. The illustrated Oz characters are adorable!




M&M ornaments. Dorothy is a bit odd looking but these will probably be popular just because they are M&Ms. Hopefully, down the line, they can do pieces that more resemble the film characters.




9 1/2" Glinda and Ruby Slipper Tassle Ornaments





12 inch Dorothy and Glinda Christmas Wall Plaque





20 inch long modern Wicked Witch of the East stocking



Ruby Slipper Light Strands



The light up Ruby Slipper stocking that was sold at F.Y.E. for the 2009 holiday season will be in wide release now. Watch Karen Owens' site for pricing and ordering info.

Adventures in Oz Dolls by Jasmine Becket-Griffith


Thanks to Jim Whitcomb for the heads up to keep an eye out for these gorgeous and creative new dolls!!! Jasmine Becket-Griffith's Oz fairies have been tremendously popular and more recently available is the Oz fairies village. Now I'm proud to show the first new dolls for 2010!! Like Jasmine Becket-Griffith's previous Oz works these dolls are sure to be a big hit and hot collectors' items. On a special note, Jasmine Becket-Griffith donated artwork of the Wicked Witch for auction at the Chesterton Wizard of Oz festival last year. With all the great collectibles last year and the recent passing of the holiday season I'm sure funds are tight right now, but when considering an Oz purchase, you may want to make the extra effort to support artists who support Oz. Available from Ashton Drake for $99.99 each plus shipping
