You are unique!

We all come in different shapes and colors, but we’re all simply adorable.
(And I’m not just talkin’ about monkeys!)

God made each one of us special. Celebrate your uniqueness!

Two Etsy Treasuries in One Day!

Just got an email from trishafern letting me know that one of my Sock Monkey Ranch Greeting Cards was featured in her Home, Home on the Range Etsy treasury.

I’m so excited…that’s two treasuries in one day featuring one of my items. Wahooooo!

Thanks a lot, Trisha.

The Side-Tracked Crafter

I love making sock monkeys, but sometimes I get side-tracked by other craft projects I see and want to try.  I recently opened a second Etsy shop called…what else?… The Side-Tracked Crafter

Today I received an email from alexart64 that my Chihuahua Journal from that shop has been included in a treasury she made called All Things Chihuahua.  Here’s a snapshot of the Treasury:

Thanks, AlexArt64!

Sock Monkeys in Italy!

McKenna and Kaitlyn live in Germany with their parents. Dad is in the military so these lucky girls get to travel to wonderful places. Of course, they take their Sock Monkey Ranch monkeys (Juliet and Baily) with them.

Juliet’s favorite sight was the statue of Juliet in Verona. While there she quoted the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet – playing both parts! And she seemed to be on a constant look out for a Romeo of her very own.

Bailey loved the Tower of Pisa. (Except she thought it was the Tower of Pizza and was just a little bit discouraged because she was very hungry.)

Thanks so much for sharing these pictures with us, girls. It’s always fun to get to know our monkeys’ new people and hear about their adventures after leaving the ranch.
