We have a new addition to our family...
Meet "Tutu", a ballerina sock monkey that I made for my daughter.
I made Tutu" from supplies found at the Dollar Store:
I had to buy an extra "bunny bag" that is not in the picture. Halfway through, I realzied that I didn't have enough fabric for the tutu. In addition, I recycled a pillow for the stuffing and I had the buttons on hand.
I made this sock monkey as part of Lindsay's dollar store challenge. You can read all about it here:
The crafts need to be completed by March 30. I can't wait to see what everyone else makes!

Very cute! You are so creative. I can't imagine trying to make a sock monkey...maybe I could handle a sock snake or something! :-)

PLEASE tell me how you did this!! I must do it! Adorable!!
That turned out so cute! I made sock monkeys for two of my kids for xmas, but DT didn't have socks w/ red heels, so I had to spring for the 'real' red-heeled socks.
Tutu is completely adorable!
And I hopped over to read up on the challenge...how fun!
I may need to check out what's at the local Dollar store today.
Kimberly :)
Wow it's really a nice doll. I admire you for being such a resourceful mother..

Very very adorable! I love how creative you were with the challenge... I need to figure out something to do!
How cute is that? I never would have thought of a sock monkey! It really is amazing how creative everyone is. Very nice job, and he is just so cute! Amy :)
This is adorable! Very clever use of the bag. I never would have put those two together.

Adorable little sock monkey you made. It reminds me of a sock dog that I made for my daughter a couple of years back. Yours is much cutter with the tutu!
