Lots of monkeying around here lately. We are working on sock monkeys for the current Craft Hope project. These little guys will be going to children who lost their homes in the Texas wildfires.
Our contribution started out with these 4 cute little girls.
We bought many socks from various dollar stores. We aren’t exactly swimming in money, so I always attempt to keep the cost of my craft hope contributions down. Plus the less it costs, the more I can make!
There have been monkey parts everywhere ever since Halloween.
Piles all around, not to mention all the yarnie bits to make them fun accessories.
Oh, about Halloween…The girls each got $5 in the cards their Nana and Poppy sent them. So on Friday (which was our Trick or Treat night due to the storm delay), we stopped at the craft store and they each chose 5 $1 crafts.
I had to ration the crafting so the pile of crafty goodness lasted through the whole weekend. They really enjoyed it all!
The other day, Kyla ended up in her room crying for some reason I don’t remember. Doug went in to talk to her, and Vada just had to know what was going on. She sat at the door and listened intently! It was really rather cute.
Later the same day, Kyla was playing kitty~cat. Vada loves her pet very much, and likes to let the cat curl up on her lap.
Well, that’s it for now. I will be home alone all day on Saturday, and am hopping I will be able to get all the various patterns and tutorials from the flower faerie costumes finished and up here and on Ravelry.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
