Land of Oz Dolls will once again participate in the 4th annual Great Route 64/84 Shop Hop (First Weekend Only) November 1st and 2nd 2013. The Shop Hop also runs the 8th and 9th of November but I will not be open the second weekend due to the Des Moines, Ia. Doll Show on the 9th and the Davenport, Ia. Doll Show on the 10th. Thirty-three shops in five towns, Savanna, Mt.Carroll, Lanark, Thomson, and Fulton will be open for all of your holiday shopping needs. Hours for all shops are 9:00am to 5:00pm unless otherwise noted. This is a great time to visit Land of Oz Dolls and some of the other interesting shops in our area all at the same time. I will be posting soon some Shop Hop specials for those able to attend and will also be running some specials here on the website for all of you too far away to be able to make it. Keep looking for more details to come! Thanks! Connie Zink

18″ “Daisy” Clothing, GB14SA Compo Body, and Mohair Wig On Sale

18" "Daisy" Clothing, GB14SA Compo Body, Mohair Wig For Sale

18″ “Daisy” Clothing, GB14SA Compo Body, Mohair Wig For Sale

Good evening everyone, it is time for this weeks special. The sale on the human hair Kimberly and Helen wigs ends tonight at midnight, (Monday), September 16th. Make sure to place your orders if you are interested in the human hair wigs by 12:00 tonight. This week I am offering 18″ “Daisy” Clothing, the Daisy Mohair Wig (size 10-11 Pale Blonde only), the GB14SA Composition Body, and a finished 18″ “Daisy” Doll. I have four costumes available for “Daisy”. I have available the three piece White and Navy “Sailor Suit”, the Pink “Best Party Dress” (only two available of the pink dress), the “Daisy” “Lemon Cotton Coat Dress”, and “Daisy” “Blue- Striped” Dress. All four costumes regularly $45.00 on sale for $40.00 this week only through midnight Monday night, September 23rd. The GB14SA Composition Body is also on sale this week for $86.00. Regular price is $108.00. The wig pictured on my “Daisy” is the Kemper mohair “Daisy” size 10-11 in Pale Blonde. The 8-9 fits a little better but I am unable to get the 8-9’s and do have a pretty good stock of the 10-11. The size 10-11 gives you a little bit longer hair and a fuller head of hair than the 8-9. You can make a gathering stitch in the wig cap to reduce it down a little if necessary. The regular price for the 10-11 Pale Blonde “Daisy” wig is $51.75. It is on sale for $45.00.

Human Hair Bleuette Wigs on Sale this Week

Human Hair Helen Wig

1907 Jumeau Bleuette “Friend” wearing Human Hair Helen wig Size 6-7

Good morning everyone, I would like to tell you about this week’s special. I am offering two human hair wigs which will be on sale through midnight Monday, September 16th. The first wig is the human hair Helen shown above on my 1907 Jumeau Bleuette “Friend”. The wig pictured is the Dark Brown, but is also available in Blonde, Light Brown, and Auburn. (Blonde in size 6-7 is out of stock until November but if you order now, I will honor the sale price for the order and no payment until stock comes in.) The cost for the size 6-7 is regularly $23.00 but is currently on sale for $18.00. These wigs are made of quality human hair and the curls hold up very well even in high humidity. I have trimmed the bangs on mine as they usually come with too long of a bang, in proportion  for the doll. 

Human Hair Kimberly Wig

Cherie Limoge Bleuette “Friend” models Human Hair Kimberly Wig Size 6-7

The regular price on this wig is $20.00 and is currently on sale for $16.00. Again, I have trimmed the bangs on mine as they come longer than I like. This is a great quality, short little, wig that enhances the beauty of your dolls face. I am also offering other sizes of these wigs on special for this week.
