The Angry Gnome Welcomes One and ALL to Oma Linda’s Wizard of Oz party!!! In honor of this Special, Annual Event, the Angry Gnome and his friends decided to make an Ozzie Wand for a Give Away!!
They began with some Oz Scrapbook paper they’ve been hoarding for just this Occasion! They also had a glass bowl shape and a wood piece and a dowel. Everything was at their disposal so they began their work!
The first thing done was the painting of the wood base:
Once this was painted, two more Gnomes drilled the hole for the Wand handle. Hmmmmmm....there was a bit of a delay, due to a bottle of wine...but work was eventually resumed and the hole successfully drilled!
Some Extras were being chosen...Stars were very important!!!

And the Angry Gnome, himself, worked on the famous OZ Symbol!!!!
Next came the OZ figures on the green base and Glitter!!! One of the Gnomes spilled quite a bit of glitter but managed to also get some around the Witch figure, where it was needed!
After working ALL DAY, the Angry Gnome and friends had created a wonderful, BIG, Magical Witch of the West OZ WAND!!!! And here it is!!!!
Now, would you like to know HOW this Oz Wand could be yours?????!!! I’m not going to TELL!!! HAHHAHAHHA, JUST KIDDING!!! Had you going for a second!!! Okay..in order to win this Fabulous OZZIE WAND, sweated over by MANY hard-working Gnomes, you must successfully answer the following OZ questions:
1) What is the Tin Woodman’s REAL NAME?
2) What is the name of THIS MULE in the book, “Tik-Tok of Oz”, by L. Frank Baum (This question is in honor of Oma Linda!)
3) Which TWO Characters are the only TWO allowed to practice MAGIC in the land of Oz??
4) Which character is The Angry Gnome’s Favorite (Hint- it is NOT a Witch!!)
Answer these 4 Questions correctly and your name will be put in a Drawing. The Drawing will take place July 20th, the DAY AFTER the OZ PARTY!!!
And there will also be a Second Drawing for a Wonderful OZ Shopping Bag, as well, on July 20th.

Alas, I cannot see your pictures, Angry Gnome.
I can't see any pictures either??? ;o(
These most be one of those anger-induced spontaneous combustion cases. The Angry Gnome is gone!
The angry Gnome isn't angry about me, cuz i can see all the funny, lovely, hilarious pictures :-) You put a lot of time and effort in the Oz party Linda! Very well done my dearest!
Now that the photos are here, I can see that the Gnomes made one witchin' bitchin' magic wand! Alas, I do not know a single answer to the questions, LOL!
I love these little guys! Especially the really, really angry Gnome! He looks to be a real task master ... but they have created a truly Oz-some "Magical Witch of the West OZ WAND!
Well, I'd like to have my name in the drawing for this truly magnificent magical witch wand and will try to answer the questions ...
1. "Tin Man"! or could it be Nick Chopper aka Jack Haley?
2. I do believe his name is Hank?
3. Glinda and the Wicked Witch?
4. Toto!? or perhaps one of the Munchkins???
Hmmmm, it seems I have answered all the questions with a question?
Well, off to visit more "Celebrate Oz" Partay Blogs! Happy Day!
I can see the photos and they're fab! Alas, I'm a total Oz failure, so I don't know the answers :o(
I was here earlier and couldn't see the photos either but now they're visable and they sure are something. I'm going to try answering the questions to enter the drawing for that Oz-some wand. Here goes: The tin Woodman's name is Nick Chopper. The name of the mule is Hank the Mule. The two allowed to practice magic in Oz are Glinda the Good Witch and the Wizard of Oz. As for the Angry Gnome's favorite I'm hoping it's the Nome King. Not so sure on that last one. This has been fun and I'm so glad I came back to see if the photos were up. Marvelous was to celebrate Oz. ;0}
Happy return to Oz Celebration!
Very Creative Wand !

Okay, I'll have another shot then, with a little help from my friends
1. Nick Chopper
2. Hank
3. Glinda And The Wizard
4. I'm guessing The Wizard
Thank you helpful friends :o)
So sad that I can't see the pics..the descriptions sound amazing! I have consulted with my friends Google and Wickie, and they say the Tin man's real name is Nick Chopper...and the Mule is called Hank :D XXX
Nick Chopper, Hank, Glinda And The Wizard and THE LION!!!
Oma Linda, sorry I am late! Just got back home! Now, I can party! I see everything! Now I have to do some research! The wand is amazing!!!! How cool! The Angry Gnomes are very talented! Big Hugs ;o)
Wow! No wonder they disappeared earlier, they were working their hearts off. And what wonderful results!
I wants, I wants, I wants, so here are my answers:
1. Mi querido señor Nick Chopper, of course
2. “You’ll protect me, Hank dear, won’t you?” she cried helplessly, and the mule said “Hee-haw!” again, in tones that meant a promise.” *cough, cough* sorry, I was in character. His name is Hank.
3. The Wizard of Oz and Glinda the Good, but I’ve sent numerous appeals!
4. I’m not sure who this lovely if frowny gent will like, but I’m thinking The Patchwork Girl. Yes, I think he’ll like Scraps.
