St. Patrick's Day

(((PINCH)))

Happy Saint Patrick's Day, Everyone!

Today has been a fabulous day, full of laughs and giggles... oh and the traditional errands and blah.  But with these MoNkEyS of mine, everyday is an adventure.

So I woke up this morning, knowing that it was GREEN wearing day and had everything laid out (in mind) on what I wanted the boys to wear - but low and behold I could not find the oldest MoNkEyS shirt. 


Personalized Shamrock Shirt by Three Monkey's Unique

So what to do, except make him something else to wear.... Funny enough, he decided in the midst of making his shirt that he needed input and did not want 'certain' things on it.   All in all, it ended up being a green shamrock :o)  Cute, but not what Mommie had in mind :o)

All excited, the MoNkEyS are handsome in their shamrocks and green, now it is PICTURE TIME... well... just see for yourserlf how that one went ....

And I had them sitting pretty, turned my back and heard ...
"No SIT here" ...  which lead to ....

"OH MOM, it wasn't me..."  as the youngest tries to 'escape'
Well, I give myself an 'A-' for the effort, maybe I will have better luck this evening AFTER nap time :o)

Hope everyone is enjoying their Saint Patrick's Day festivities!

Until next time, squeeze your MoNkEyS tight!

PS. Both shirts made by Three Monkey's Unique

texas proud

Well... HOWDY y'all!!  I know I am a day late in this post, but it took me a little bit to go through last weeks orders.  And well, It has been a little busy around here... but I am not complaining in the least!

And as there was not a particular winner in boy or girl apparel, nor holiday or regular wear... there was one thing that stood out... well over 1/2 of this weeks shipment was right here in my own back yard!  Thanks, Texas for making me feel loved this week!!  It has been amazing to not only see all the orders that are coming from Texas, but the amount that I am now getting 'locally' :o)   So cool!!

A really neat one done, was festive and girlie:


Can you guess...  I am sure you guessed the festive part... but can you guess how the girlie was brought in?


CUTE!!!
And the picture, really doesn't do it justice.  The pink scripted name really 'popped' against the green shamrocks!


Well, Another day come and gone, and work still left to accomplish, but off to bed I must go... so one last time a BIG...


Until Tomorrow, Squeeze your MoNkEyS!

**PS**  A Big THANKS Y'ALL to ALL my customers Texas and Beyond!  You are all equally FABULOUS!!!

Snow Day!!!!!

Okay... to some this might sound crazy, but to us here in Texas... SNOW is AWESOME!!!  We don't get it often, once a year if we are lucky, and when we do it is a BIG thing!!

And yep, you guessed it - today we have SNOW!!  It is sooo pretty and white!  As soon as it started raining (after the sleet) my Gavin Monkey ran to the window and said "Oh MOM... ITS SNOWING... SNOW SNOW SNOW... Its my FAVORITE!!!" ... man I love that boy!

So Daddy ran to the store, and I bundled the kiddos and we played in the SNOW!!!  Here is a picture from our FUN!!!












Then once our fun was over, it was time to start craft again... and well, even though I wanted to continue with yet another wonderful Valentines Day design I opted for the start of St. Patrick's Day. It was a 'booger' to do with all those beautiful little shamrocks, yet totally worth it in the end, I think! I don't know how many different designs to offer yet, or if this design is going to be a winner... I love it, but I am not everyone :o)  Tell me what you think and what YOU would like to see.... Maybe this should be the holiday I try my hand and machine at applique?!?!?!  What do you think???

St. Patrick's Day Onesie












Off to complete a few more orders and keep brainstroming on new exciting things... so...

Until tomorrow... Enjoy your 'MoNkEyS'!!!!

Tip my hats to the boys...

This week was definitely a BOYS week!!  WOW!  I think almost every shirt I did was an order for a handsome prince somewhere :o)  How FUN!!!

It appears that I have a "knack" for the boy things... hmmm???  Could this be because of my 2 monkeys?!?!?!  Ha!  I hope!  I give them full credit for my motivation and most of my inspiration, the other inspiration comes from my customers. It never ceases to amaze me the wonderful ideas that I am meet with almost daily, definitley weekly; whether it be different color combinations, that I hadn't thought of, or a completely new design all together... It's just AWESOME!!!

Boy Onesie


And those are just to 'show' a few!!!  I just love them all!!!  I wish I could share all the wonderful color combinations that I get to see and ship out, they are all awesome.

On another note, decided tonight to start working on St. Patrick's Day. I know it is a little early, but if I don't move on to another holiday I am going to become Valentine obsessed :o)

I am doing a St. Patrick's Day onesie right now and it is super cute for either boy or girl.  Of course, it will be previewed for a boy.... because I am doing it for my Greyson :o)   It is a rather elaborate design and time consuming, so it will be listed at a higher price, but not to high, I promise...  Stay tuned...

Until tomorrow,  Enjoy your 'MoNkEyS'
