oz museum!



stopped by the oz museum yesterday and it was awesome! i think the photos speak for themselves (i took way too many so i tried to narrow it down a little)
$4 for students and you get to see all this:

hand beaded ruby slippers (hundreds and hundreds of swarovski crystals)

so much oz memorabilia! who doesn't want this tea set!?

the most amazing handmade quilt. so much detail! it's incredible.
it is displayed in the museum's theater that shows the move 24/7


i do believe in spooks. i do believe in spooks. i do i do i do i do believe in spooks



it's good to be the wizard

in short, i would recommend it! everything is really well done, and very organized. and of course, lots and lots of kitch. and i love me some kitch!
