Welcome to My Shop, by the Sea ~ Beachbabyblues

~ Here is a bit about me and what I do I have been a BUYER here since March 2008 ~ But, got serious about SELLING in June 2012 ~ Took a break around 2018, but I’m back now !!!

I have always enjoyed creating and I am a very curious person ~
So, trying new outlets and mediums is ever changing and evolving.
During my creative journey, I was sourcing fancy paper for mixed media and fell in love with BOOKS along the way. Currently ,I enjoy putting together custom bundles of these beauties for just the right touch ~
I have worked with many people decorating their new homes or offices , as well as Wedding Planners, Event Planners, Movie Set Designers, Bloggers, Home Stylists and many many couples getting married or celebrating an anniversary , planning baby showers and retirement parties too.

BOOKS just seem to speak to people, in so many ways and are versatile for decorating, as well as passing along to the next generation !

I live on the Oregon Coast where I am refreshed daily , by the beauty, sights and sounds of the shore ~ At home, I am surrounded by books and pretty paper and vintage finds. My "inventory" has become my decor ~ so to speak and its like a "magical" place to me
I know that I am blessed to be working in an creative way , doing what I love , in a place I adore.
However, the best part is sharing ,which brings JOY to others , through these collections ~ Passing things along , knowing its still a treasure, to someone, whether in my possession or not

I work very hard to maintain and grow my business . I strive for excellent customer service, because I also enjoy collaborating with people and meeting a need. Every request is important to me. I put my heart and soul into my work. Even, putting books together with the perfect ribbon , making sure the hues and tones compliment each other. It is a wonderfully creative process. And then there are days that I get to freely create by trying something new .
Hearing from a customer, that they are pleased makes the long days ~ all worth it and keeps me going. Its a dream come true , not a fairy tale, because it is hard work , but I wouldn't want to do anything else !

I hope I introduced myself well and that you enjoy exploring my shop !
Feel free to ask questions ~ I am happy to send photos of book choices or other treasures ~ I add items often and have plenty that is not listed in my shop yet.

Perhaps there is something special you are looking for ?
Please, don't hesitate to contact me , I enjoy the "hunt" as well.
Happy to source items for your needs ~ that always brightens my day

Thank you for your time ,
Susan
