Made in Savannah - No Kidding!


The Sock Monkey is a fashion icon. Not really, but it's lots of fun to play with clever computer photo programs!!!

I've closed my etsy shop and joined the newest local art movement - Savannah Market Bazaar. The first event is this Sat., Dec. 13th at the Robbie Robinson garage. By popular demand, there will be an entire section of vendors selling local and handmade art. This great mix of flea market and art market is sure to grow each month. Admission is free and the hours are 9:00AM - 2:00PM.
PARKING IS FREE! PARKING IS ONSITE! The garage is located behing the Telfair Museum - betwwen Jefferson and Montgomery Streets.
Hope to see you there!

Why Sock Monkey is oh so blue!



Sock Monkey is sad because Jeri is laid up for a month with a leg brace. She fell in her garden and fractured her knee (OUCH!).

Thanks and gratitude to friends and family for love and comfort - meals, running errands, groceries, outings for icecream. Not to worry, I am pasting from bed so papier mache will not be ignored!

A Sock Monkey is Born!




This is the evolution of the making of a papier mache sock monkey. Lots of layers of newspaper over a handmade form. Just wait to see how cute she'll be with paint and a bow!

Beach Monkey Bingo

Sock Monkey had a grand time relaxing on Tybee Island this weekend. He played Bingo, but sadly didn't win anything. Here are some photos of Sock Monkey soaking up the rays near the ocean playing in the sand. He came back refreshed and renewed!
