This beautiful couple is off to Hawaii to get married!
They are both so excited. As you can see they have their tropical wedding attire just so, for their beach wedding. He is decked out in a custom Hawaiian shirt and top hat. She has a bridal veil with tropical flower, a coconut bra and grass skirt.
Don’t they look in love!
A Thank You to Tyler, my brother, for a design assist on the costume. 
I got a request for an Outdoor Sock Monkey with DAD on the jacket and the ‘big ears’.
I bet their dad will not take it personal.
We decided to put up a facebook page for our company. It’s not finished but you can follow it if you like.
I love getting to make new sock monkeys that will be traveling companions. That was the reason I started to make sock monkeys in the first place. I wanted my own traveling companion. I had seen a few brave sock monkeys out traveling the world and knew I had to have one too! I am so glad I started making sock monkeys and I will always treasure my Ceru Monkey.
This cute girl is headed to Paris. I had fun making her and her wardrobe. I say wardrobe because the person who wanted this sock monkey wanted to be sure she was well dressed and had a “day outfit” and a slightly dressier option. On to the pics!
Here she is in her Day Dress with her Classic self-fabric beanie.
Here she is dolled up in a Beret and Caplet.
I hope I get to hear of her adventures in Paris. She looks excited to be going!
I made something other than a sock monkey! Crazy- I know.
I have been trying to learn to play guitar for about 6 months. I am still awful at it, but luckily- I am stubborn.
In an attempt to avoid actual guitar practice but still stay somewhat related, I decided to make a bracelet that would tell the world how cool I am for playing guitar. Here it is.
Here it is on someones pale freckle riddin skin.
I made one for my friend who is learning to play with me. And my guitar teacher (who performs and stuff) thought it was cool and asked for one too. I happily made him one as well.
I think love is in the air.
I have had a lot of bride and groom sock monkey requests lately.
We are thinking of adding the bride and groom sock monkeys to the line at http://www.sockmonkey.net
Without further wordage- here is this months couple.
The wait is over! We have finally gotten our shipment of Sock Lady Socks and we are ready to offer the Colorful Sock Monkeys!
Here they are!
Starting from Left to Right – Here we Have Lime Sock Monkey.
This little guy is Blue (but he’s not sad- he’s Happy!)
And finally the most sedately colored of the three- she is so sweet I call her Pumpkin.
They will be available for adoption as soon as my overworked web guy has a spare moment to make the page for them.
Thanks for visiting!
Isn’t she a sweet little monkey? Another soccer sock monkey headed to an adorable little soccer player.
The jersey and shorts are sure to match her human friends exactly because her thoughtful mom sent me a jersey to make the monkeys outfit.
Smart thinking Mom!
I can’t seem to pose these little guys any other way. They just look so natural with that smug little expression and their arms crossed.
These sock monkeys really do have an attitude about them.
Maybe I’ll come up with another pose someday though.
I was so happy to get this request. I think I will add this as an option on the site.
I really do need a few more girly options for sock monkeys. I love eyelashes!
Maybe a classic sock monkey in a pink hat and scarf too? hmmm…
These two cuties are headed to the land down under. I love it when good ole’ folk art gets exported.
Who says America has no culture! 
Sorry, I guess I might be a bit touchy about that. I was recently in South America hanging out with a nice German guy who did not hold back his opinions of Americas lack of taste and culture.
Back to Sock Monkeys- I’ve been asked how I make the slightly folded ears for the classic sock monkey.
I draw the shape. (for classic is about 80% of a full circle)
Sew it. (for pre-sewn sock monkey kits this shape is already sewn in)
Turn it right side out.
Bring the two ‘corners’ together and make a small sorta cone shape and sew that to the sock monkeys head.
Happy Monkey Making!

Latest Sock Monkey is a little guy- but he still has the tough attitude of his taller cousins.
