Just finished a fun project for a great company. Sock Guy ordered some sock monkeys for thier next catalog. What a fun idea!

Hottie Sock Monkey was the first one and now here are the other 5.

Monkey Needs Some TLC

nobody@vox.com(tamara) — Wed, 07 May 2008 22:15:09 -0700

I love seeing vintage crafts. Especially up close.
Recently, I was sent a very cute monkey that needed to be rebuilt.
Luckily- I had the technology.

You can see even in the before pictures she is a beautiful piece of work- just a bit torn up.

Hottie Sock Monkey!

Recently, I was contacted by Sock Guy. The art director had the great idea to have sock monkeys made from some of their sock, for their next catalog. They had me make up a sample sock monkey from the "Hottie" socks.

I think she came out pretty cute. What do you think? :)

Paper Trading - Just for Fun!

nobody@vox.com(tamara) — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 18:56:56 -0700

I am "buying" $1000 in Google and Apple today. I will check back with both of these stocks once a week to see what I'm "making" on these two stocks. :)

Today Apple closed at 127.35
Google closed at 439.84

So I "have" 7.85 shares of Apple
And only 2.27 shares of Google

~~~~
My Husband is "buying" $1000 of XTO energy inc. it closed at 61.08
and Intel at 21.20

So he has 16.37 shares of XTO
and 47.16 shares of Intel

Hand Knitted Hat, Scarf Set in Sock Monkey and Human Size

nobody@vox.com(tamara) — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 19:18:32 -0800

A first for me! I got an order for a sock monkey and a matching hat and scarf for the human friend.

I had to model it before it went into the box. :) I wish I'd taken a shot of them together not on the me and the monkey.
