Lucille Ball and Vitameatavegamin
Ok, I’ve been dying to post my latest sock monkey on the blog, but I had to wait because a friend custom ordered it for his wife’s birthday and I was afraid she might see it.
He wanted a Lucille Ball sock monkey. I went online and found this:
She was my inspiration, and here’s what I created. (My mom made the dress.)
Front View
Back View (I added a tail bow later.)
Her cute little hat.
Vitameatavegamin - I used a Watkins vanilla bottle and filled it with Coke., then made a cool label.
This is the actual script Lucy read on the Vitameatavegamin episode. I included a spoon for tasting!
This was one of the most challenging sock monkeys I’ve made yet, but she was a lot of fun.
Oh, and…HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JUDY!
