Sunday Summer Sock Monkey Party


There is nothing better than spending a beautiful Sunday afternoon with an awesome group of 12 year olds.  They were celebrating the end of their school year by having a sock monkey making party.  They were so much fun to teach how to make sock monkeys, they were entusiastic and definitely knew how to "accessorize".  I  would like to introduce you to their monkeys :
I am Pico

To Market, To Market

Well Saturday, June 19th is the official opening of the St. Albert Outdoor Farmers Market.  The market is open from 10am - 3pm.  There are over 250 vendors this year so there is lots to see and great stuff to buy.
My tent has moved this year to #160 and I will be there opening day.   I will then be back every Saturday from July 3-24 and again August 14-Sept 4.  I have lots of Sockits, Sock Monkeys, Sock Dinousaurs and Plush Owl and Monster pillows.  Looks like it is going to be a lovely, sunny day (we haven't had many of them) so be sure to come out and enjoy the day and say HI to the Funky Monkey!

It a Sock Monkey Birthday Party

Yesterday was my first Sock Monkey making Birthday Party with 6 lovely little ladies stuffing and sewing to make their very own sock monkey dolls.  The weather was lovely and we spent the afternoon in the backyard making sock monkeys.  And after 2 hours of some very hard work we had some wonderful one of a kind sock monkeys.  Including the birthday girl's bright orange monkey complete with button earrings.  Thanks to the adults at the party who assisted with threading needles and making knots and finishing off some of the monkeys and a special shout out to the dad who was left to sew on the earrings. 
If you would like to book your own sock monkey making birthday party please email me at trenwen@shaw.ca.  $20.00 per person, maximum of 6 children - at least 8 years of age.
