Sock Monkey House is a craft hobby concentrating mainly on Sock Monkeys but I do try a few things to keep me interested. Feel free to ask my to try something new.. I have taken every Sock challenge given to me..  I am a mum to three fab boys, and started off making teachers gifts which then became in demand, soon I decided I wanted to create something a little different that would suit Children, and came across a Sock Monkey online, I decided I could do it and I did!... After creating sock monkeys for a couple of year and developing my way of doing them I was asked to do a special monkey, then another and then all of a sudden I was doing Monkeys in Character and SuperMonkeys, Love a challenge and some challenges I was given!!!
Of course I do other Sockies too but my Monkeys have become my main creation.

Alongside my sockies I jumped upon the fairy buzz, and my after doors, came houses, meeting churches, and various accessories to go with them.  For Christmas time I have reindeer, santa and snowmen for the fairs just to festive it up a little... My Dad does almost all my wood creations and occasionally my mother knits a little something too.  Very grateful to my customers & friends who support my hobby and always throw new ideas at me.

Each year I do the Easter Bunnys job in our family.. I told the kids I like to do it and it frees up the Easter Bunny to go to other children... the past few years I've made them sock bunnies and tried to vary it a bit. Earlier today I said I didn't think they needed another Bunny and my middle child almost had a melt down .. so I spent my evening working on these fellows...what do you think? #sockbunny #easterfun #itsallaboutthechocolate #sockmonkeyhouse #sockies

So...a few people have asked me to make elephants... I was reluctant as last time I tried my friends said they were not suitable for children 😶... So they became pigs... This is my newest attempt... I'm not convinced they are for me ... what do you all think? Leave a comment.. #sockelephants #trysomethingnew #sockies #handmade #sockmonkeyhouse
