One Good Annie Deserves Another

I ran into another sock monkey artist - Janet (she goes by Jan) from  in an Etsy.com chatroom.  After chatting a few minutes, I hopped on over to Jan's shop to do some browsing and fell in love with one of her monkeys.  Her name is Annie Oakley and she looked like she was just made for Sock Monkey Ranch.




I asked Jan if she would be up for a trade and after looking at my monkeys, she decided on guess who....my Little Annie!


 
Ok, so two sock monkey makers named Jan, both have Etsy shops and both picked a monkey named Annie....soooo Twilight Zone!

Jan's from England, so I shipped Annie across the pond today. I just know she will love England and I can't wait until Annie Oakley arrives at Sock Monkey Ranch!

  2. Annie arrived from England today, but I suspect she met with some trouble along the way. I think she was bush-wacked!

    Her shipping container was crushed, her cowgirl hat was mangled beyond recognition, but Annie herself didn't have a scratch on her.

    It looks like she put up quite a fight...and won! She's one tough little girl.

    I'm sure Miss Millie will help her recover from her trecherous trip across the pond and take her into town on the buck-board to pick up a new hat. It's all good.
