Just Monkeying Around

When my daughter had to have knee surgery, I wanted to have something special for her when she came out of the operating room. An original sock monkey would do the trick. I had been looking around for the "socks" and finally came across them.


She was surprised and he sure came in handy since her knee was worse than expected and he had to reconstruct as well! That's a long terrible time of 24/7 care and needing something to do to keep from going over the edge....baby monkeys?!



Lots of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!






They are everywhere......

And now they brought friends....

Somebody stop me!!

Christmas at the ZOO!

The holidays were better than expected. I kept myself busy making all my gifts and had some sales and special orders and bought some items from my fellow etsy people. The best is that a friend of mine opened a shop in town and is selling my things on consignment. I hope she makes it so I can too!!!!!!



Here are some of the Christmas gifts I made....



The bone pillow was a special order from a friend for his wife who loves her dachshund named ZIPPER, thus the idea...he is a jokster and she is more conservative so I pleased both. She promissed me a picture of her, zipper and the pillow but we all know how that goes...no one wants their picture on the world wide web....

Especially my sister who I crocheted a huge sock money for....it was a bit overwelming for the both of them.lol My daughter would only take a photo in disguise....

Love you both! Sorry I couldn't help myself.lol
