Sock Monkey news

A pleasent Sock Monkey good Mornin! How ya'll doin this cold,cold mornin? Lots goin on in the Sock Monkey world as we know it. I'm here ta give ya'll the 411! Got ta keep my Possums posted. Gives A.K. somethin ta nosey around in. But we ain't studyin her anyway! A short stubby middle finger has the answer for her. And thats all I have ta say bout that. Now that we got the skank part out of the way,we can go on to some Sock Monkey fun!
For those of ya'll whom don't know it,there are many Sock MOnkey fabrics out on the market for ya. I see those crafters mouth waterin at this very minute. I think the proper name for them is "Sock Monkey Moda". Here are a few. I'm sure there are more.







Aren't they great? As ya'll can see,One of the fabrics,I'm wearin. And what Sock Monkey would be complete without an emsemble made out of at least one of the fabrics. These all come in many colors. I'm quite sure ya'll will find many craft projects ta do with these great fabrics.



I know I have shown ya'll this dress before,but here is how it looks on a real person. I'm willin ta bet we won't see this on the red carpet anytime soon. I can't imagine what Joan Rivers would say bout it.



This here is the Japaneese Version of the Sock MOnkey. I really think someone forgot ta tell them we are suppose to be made from socks.LOL!



Ya'll have a pleasent Wednesday! Be happy ya'll don't have skank nosey'in round in your business. Bubba

Good evenin Possums! Check out the Sock Monkey stand up! Really cool stuff. So I had a good day. Watched many movies! Yes,Comcast decided ta work today. They've been having technical difficulties like big time. I think they finally got it all worked out. Be sure and watch the video link I have listed up above.

The cold air has blown in from somewhere! Boy howdy! It's frickin cold outside! How cold is it ya'll ask? I see old Megan and Cat there in the back and they agree. It's so cold.....Ya'll would think my tail is Bubba on a stick! LOL!


So here I am sittin here with Monkey Love photo in the background. Photographed by Susan Johnson. Great little piece of Sock Monkey art.


Have a great Tuesday night! Bubba

2:00 A.M. in the mornin

Late night bloggin Possums! Here I am in the second newest edition to my wardrobe. I'm ready for the Paparazzi! Dressed from head ta toe in Sock Monkeys! Gotta support the brothers. Funny thing bout this paticular emsemble is.....and I ask for a drum roll........



The designer use a completely different fabric on the backside! Now ya'll know where I got my tattoo idea from. Doesn't that look really cool? My designer has another pair of pants on the drawin board. But I'll be sure ta show ya'll the new threads as they roll out of the presses. So to review the previous look;



I like ta wear some crazy dud's from time to time. Shows my versatility in the fashion world. Joan Rivers might find some of it distasteful,but at least their talkin bout-cha for months. You'll also be on the cover of every fashion magazine ever made. The coverage is awesome. Keep them guessin. Don't let'em think of ya in your tux all the time. I may be a celeb.,but I do have down time as well.



My hand puppet the past time at 2:00 A.M. in the mornin. Ya'll have a good nights sleep. SSssssshhhhhhh! Bubba

It's Monday Possums

Sock salutations,Possums. A cozy evenin at home. It's cold out. Been watchin TV as Mike has been sewin this afternoon and evenin. He's workin on some of his projects.



Yeah,that's it.....I want ta give my Valentine a Lego Keychain. (snicker) That's the quickest way to spend the night on the sofa. Alone...very alone................Just a heads up,mind you. I'm just sayin........



Enjoyin an artistic evenin at home. Mike had a 70's moment when he made me this shirt and pants. I like the vintage look anyway. Made from fabrics that Mike traded for. The starvin artist thang.


Chillin on the sofa this evenin.



For those of ya'll lookin for the instructions,this is for ya'll. So now ya'll can check out your own Sock drawers. Find that perfect set of socks and go ta town makin Sock Monkeys. Ya know ya want one. So be creative on a cold evenin.



Ya'll can make your Sock Monkey look like Wonder Woman if ya want to. Or ya'll can go to this site and buy your own Superhero. Superhero sock Monkeys is what's called. The site is awesome,so be sure ta stop in and take a look around.



Have a good Monday. Bubba

Howdy ya'll

Good afternoon Possums! Sittin here with my bean bags. Really craft beads to use the same way as we did beans back in the 60's. Little round plastic pellets. Bean bags that will be here for hundreds of years! Antique bean bags one day. Bean bags can be a really cool thing. Mike's been jugglin them,or tryin to anyway. He made several other bean bags last night.



Here they all together. Don't ya'll love the bright colors? Think Geek! Collect a bean bag! LOL! We were just having fun last night. I'm sure there will be many conversations bout that subject. That'll make all the more fun!



Batman shot! Like in the olden days with Adam West. POW! BAM! PUNCH! LOL! A mere flashback Possums. We baby boomers are screwed up people.

Last day continued

So what does one do on the last afternoon of your vacation? Well....there are those of us whom have a box full of monkey socks in the house. We decided ta see what we could come up with. playin with the socks I mean. Mike bein the artist he is,always comes up with somethin pretty cool. The sun is shinin today,but still really cold out. Suppose to get down in the 20's tonight. Which brings us back to our original topic.



I think this should become an indoor sport! An artist challenge,if ya will. Kind of a fun thing ta do on a cold day. Why do it ya'll ask? It's all bout the photograph! Useless information. Usin an artful eye and a good digital camera.



Dear old Nelson never knew his socks have been most famous since they created the knittin machine back in the 1800's.



This one makes me look like I'm in a crowd of Sock Monkeys. Like on the streets of New York or somethin. Use ya'll imaginations. Do ya see it now....?



That's how we work the day away in the merry old land of OZ.We've all heard the song before. It's always a horse of a different color.



Tip toe throught the monkey socks! Bubba

Monkey business

Good Mornin Possum's! It's the last day of Mike's vacation. Sorry ta say he has to return to work tomorrow. A good time was had by all durin his 8 days off. Been really cold out and it was great we didn't have to get out in it. Stayin home where its warm and let the bloggin flow. Got a nice cup of coffee ta go along with it. A hot bubble bath brewin in the upstairs bathroom. Now that's livin!
Time for ya'll ta pay attention again. Here is a little Teddy Bear Mike is gonna restore. This is the before picture. A Panda Teddy from the 50's. Now,Mike and I were both thinkin that this dirty lookin tannish fur was suppose ta be white and probably was in the beginnin. Not true! Mike washed him two time yesterday and even with a fingernail scrub brush. The fur really is tan. That was a shocker.



He's been loved and loved! So we'll see how he ends up turnin out in the weeks ta come. Then he will join the ranks of Mike's Teddy Bear collection.



On the fashion side of things.....A new Sock Monkey dress design has been created. Thought ya'll might want ta see it. I'm surprised this hasn't been a challenge on Project Runway. The Sock Monkey challenge. Far be it for me ta say so. I'm just a mild mannered southern Sock Monkey. I'll leave the runnin of Project Runway to the experts.



Jane Goodall has been in the Sock Monkey news here of late. She autographed one of us Sock Monkeys and they auctioned it off. Proceeds probably went to chimp research or somethin. Not quite sure what that was all about. She is the worlds leading expert on Chimp research. She goes out into the jungles where chimp families live and live among them to study them. She gets excepted into their families So she can watch up close. It really is amazin! These are wild chimps livin out free in the jungle. They could tare us apart limb by limb if they so chose to. They learn to trust her. The Sock Drawer is in awe of her work. Great lady!



And what better place to insert The flyin monkeys,right? Jane loved it! Ya'll know she did. I shouldn't have ta tell ya'll that.



A straight jacket for the nonbelievers. LOL! I need to fill my coffee cup on that note.



Have a great Thursday! Bubba
