~Funkalicious at The Funky Monkey~

This brings new meaning to the term "crowded bed. "
"Goodies Galore"

"Yep, you guessed it, I was the inspiration for this piece. Just kidding her boobs aren't big enough.....LOL....



"Where on earth is this child's mom? Shopping I'll bet."



Ouch!!!! Thats Gotta Hurt!!!!!



This lady was a real B*@^& !!! I asked her where she got her hat and she threw her arm at me!






This lady must be very confident in herself. To wear a scarf rather than covering her plastic surgery gone wrong? Didn't keep her from shopping did it? She must be related to the other lady that threw her arm at me. Neither one was up for any conversation. How rude!





"Surreal"








Here's Miss Lisa who I immediately gave a heads up to regarding the 2 rude shoppers. Needless to say upon questioning, Lisa failed to get them to talk either. I thought all women love to talk. Well, I guess I am allowed to be wrong once in my life.







"LOGO"




















Just when you thought you were finished with the nonsense, along comes another shopper who was obviously too cheap to buy anything, but she didn't mind using the facility to bathe. Geeezz...The nerve of some people.











Here is where Lynn started to sweat profusely. She says she gets that way when she shops at Funky Monkey. Not wanting to be embarrassed by her bodily functions gone wrong-I immediately directed her to the tub where the "free loader" was still bathing. Thank goodness Amy had that tub!













This truly is the epitomy of a Valentine display. A feast for the eyes. Luscious pinks and sweet smelling candles. Roses and special effects lighting. A pink convertible and some candy. And for the men breasts and a trunk...Need I say more......












What the Funk!!! You knew I was going to say that didnt you-I couldn't resist. After lunch with Lynn we headed for The Funky Monkey. This is the brain child of our dear friend Amy Wray. The photos of her shop will speak for themselves. Too bad she was not there today, but her BFF was-Miss Lisa. This store is kind of shabby meets funky meets tattered classy. You get the drift. Strolling through the store you will find a bit of everything and anything. An abundance of awesome jewelery next to a headless cupid statue. Some delicate clothing hung on a doll's leg. A deer head that I swear stares at you the whole time your shopping. Purses and wallets and books-oh my...Blingy skulls and vintage religious pieces blend together to form a unique combination that only Amy can pull-off. Way to go girl !!!

  1. You must go to see this wonderful shop, it is one of a kind, just like Amy the owner. You will not be disappointed. There is no other place like it. I truly do break out in a sweat, and get heart palpatations along with it. I bought the coolest headless cement boy that was once a fountain, I already put it on my outside bench to welcome all visitors. When you go tell Amy Hi for us. Lynn
