Sock Monkey Banner Project

Well, it's finished!  The sock monkey banner project, that I have worked on for the past week on and off, is finally done.  I LOVE how it turned out.  I found this banner idea online when researching sock monkey party ideas.  I bought a canvas on sale at Hobby Lobby, a few .47 cent paints at Walmart, along with a little ribbon, and that was it!  Here are some pics of the work in progress.  Many thanks to my friend Edith who helped paint the monkey, and shade the wording.  I couldn't have done it without her!  I am proud to say that I did everything else, minus Chris helping this morning with the staple gun to attach the red ball trim.  I can't wait for Matthew's party now!

Just starting...

 

This is as far as I went before professional help!
