Welcome to "Babys Gone Shoppin'"

Well, come on in! Welcome to "Babys Gone Shoppin". Named after a Jimmy Buffet song, and a new endevor to my frequent closet and house regurgitation. I am always moving pieces around and sometimes, there are some that just need to make a home else where. Maybe it is your home...
Look around, see if there is anything you want to love and give a nice home to.
Email me (it's on my profile) if you'd like to make a purchase or have a question. Buyer to pay all shipping costs, insurance is optional. Orders may be combined. Paypal & money orders are accepted.


Baby's gone shoppin' she's lookin' around
She's checkin' out the boys and the clothes about town
Pick up this drop off that
Stares at her pictures from the Fotomat
Oh she likes what she sees
But she's afraid of what she needs

She should be here with me
She should be here with me

But I don't make it easy, I'm no day at the beach
Just an old road dog gettin' harder to teach
Hang on this planet, hang on each twirl
Scatter my belongings all over this world
I get more wrapped up each day,
she's lookin' further away
She should be here with me
She should be here with me

[Instrumental]

Not much good at conversation
I don't want a proclamation
I just think that we could use
A little face to face communication

Now I've been thinkin' thinkin' this through
Time to stop all this selfishness,
both me and you
I'll stop from here, you stop from thee
We'll meet somewhere in the middle
darlin' I don't care
I don't want no more heartaches,
It's time to slam on the brakes
She should be here with me

Baby's gone shoppin'
No more bar hoppin'
I don't know but I been told
Thay city livin' gets awfully cold

Cockadoodle Doo!

I found these beautiful hand carved rooster napkin rings and snatched them up.


















But, aside from Key West, how often does one see roosters on a beach in Bloggeritaville?
Perhaps they will be at home in your home?
The wood is naturally finished, therefore there are variations in the wood tones.
The rooster has a carved crest/crown on his head.
Adorable.
Set of 8=$12.00 plus SH

Ice Skating Village

This was one of those "I must have's" I purchased years ago. About 16 to be exact. I remember I put it on layaway to get. I didn't have to pennies to rub together then. I was a new mom. I opened this up once and decided it was to fragile to have out with a baby. And I had babies for years to come. I never opened it again. The ice skaters actually "skate". So sweet. It's a 22 piece set.

$15.00

Wreaths

Three different wreaths:
Shiny retro $6.00
$6.00 Autumn Colors:
Ugly Duckling. I used this one in a Christmas Parade. I would just use this greemery as a basic and add to it. A steal for $3.00

Fishing Themed Wreath

A fishing themed wreath. I purchased this one assembled from Michaels a few years back. It comes complete with small bobbers and fishing hats on it.
I love the "stick vine" on it. Also has red berries.
I paid more than I want to share here. My hubby would kill me.
I will sell for $10.00.
Size..I dont know. It was suitable for my front door. Not skimpy at all.


Nutcrackers

Assorted Wooden Nutcrackers. Each stands about a foot high.
$7.00 each
The ones in boxes have never been out. The others I took out last Christmas. So they've only been out once.

Santa

Wooden Santa.
Sure he has a crack in him. I bought him like that. It only added to his rustic character. And it saved me a few bucks. But I like him. He is solid wood. Stands about 2 feet tall. Perfect at an entry or fireplace.
$5.00

Candle Holder



This candle holder stands approximently four feet tall. It is metal and has some vine and small cardinal bird on it. It is made for a candle to go inside the "cage". There are two of these candle holders. I used to put them at my door entry.


$5.00 each

Monkey Rope Lamp

Monkey holding rope. Great Shade!
The knob where you turn it off chipped off, so it would need a new twist knob.

Shouldn't cost but a couple dollars to fix. Otherwise the lamp does work!


Monkey Lamp holding Rope-$15.00

A Zebra by any other Name

Cute on a shelf, in a child's room-anywhere.

Not a toy.

Art is in the Eye


Original artwork. Matted. Watercolor of what to me appears like a beach side bungalow.

Have you fallen in love with my little monkey lamp? I love him. Look at him, holding his little candle stick shades made of "cheetah and beads". Dressed in his Sunday Best. Ain't he pretty? Ok, I am not fully convinced to get rid of this little fellow. But perhaps.....
Turns off and on by twist box on the cord. Uses two bulbs.
