The best thing, among all my favorites I love about Baba Moon are the photographs of babies. Often, I ask myself, "how do they do that???" My kids RARELY EVER sat still enough for me to take decent pictures. These babies are posing, smiling, winking, sleeping, looking straight into the camera with nary a red eye!
Wow!
Please take a look at the wide and wondrous selection of baby items at Baba Moon because I selected some of my favorites but there are many more at this delightful Etsy shop!

Her desire is that these creations delight the your eyes. Take a look at her gorgeous jewelry, superbly photographed and read her
descriptions, each piece has a story!


Victorian Style Antiqued Brass Flower Cuff Bracelet Yellow Rose "I think these Victorian style filigree cuff bracelets are so romantic, and they invite decorating them with acrylic flowers. I selected this lovely yellow rose to go with the antiqued brass tone. This is a beautiful rose cabochon that is centered on the filigree bracelet."

Vintage Pendant Necklace-White with Gold Leaves, Gold Chain

"This delightful vintage pendant is a gold plated circle with white enamel on it. An artistic gold leaf design decorates the front of the pendant. This circular piece was once part of a set of earrings and has been rescued from that to live a new life as part of this necklace.
A small clear faceted acrylic heart plus a tiny three dimensional gold star hang over the top of the pendant. The gold plated chain is nice light weight and is decorated with three small white freshwater pearls.
This piece is one of my “Rescued Treasure” designs. I always enjoy finding unique pieces of jewelry at estate sales and yard sales. I take great care to inspect and clean the components carefully before using them in a piece of jewelry that I will sell."

Soft Pink Flower Bobby Pins Lucite Antiqued Brass Filigree

Hibiscus Bouquet Earrings, Lucite Flowers

"The yellow, orange and red blooms that make up the bouquet in these earrings are like miniature hibiscus flowers. I had some hibiscus of similar colors blooming in pots on my deck last summer."

Beaded ID Badge Lanyard, In the Pink Beads and Silver Magnetic Clasp

"This is the spring to be In the Pink. Wear pink with a smile with this beaded lanyard id badge holder. I found these unique acrylic pink matte twist beads several years ago here on Etsy and decided to create a lanyard with them. These large beads are 23mm x 13 mm (almost an inch in length).
The pink beads are complemented by small soft pink Swarovski crystals, pink cats eye beads, soft green crystal roundells, and silver bead spacers. Seed beads in a variety of pastels complete the strand of beads. It’s almost like cotton candy!"
